… on choosing faith

I no waka reach here just to waka reach here

And if the tables no turn me I go change chair

Wetin dem go talk, I don’t care

God dey my side, I no fear

[Chorus]

I go waka with akonuche

Pass Ebuka, I stubborn (Stubborn, stubborn, stubborn)

Leave shame put for back like bumbum

From Abuja to London

This year dem go know say I don come

[Verse 2]

Smart work, no be agidi (Gidi)

Las Vegas, no be Lasgidi (Lasgidi)

This song sharp ko dizzy (Dizzy)

If na useless waka, mó busy (Mó Busy)

I don wicked now, ṣo ti ri n si? (Ṣo ri n si?)

Peoplе bad, na the reason (Reason)

Sincе 2015 I’ve been singing (Agba singing)

You sef try if e easy (Easy)

E go xup like dream when you sleep, I swear to God almighty

Popsi go show in a brand new truck with my mummy in a GAC

Before I find wetin I see, my mouth no fit talk wetin I see

From this year talk to me nicely

[?] supremacy

[Chorus]

Go ask Ebuka, I stubborn

Leave shame put for back like bumbum

From Abuja to London

This year dem go know say I don come

Pass Ebuka, I stubborn (Stubborn, stubborn, stubborn)

Leave shame put for back like bumbum

From Lagidi to London, eehn

This year dem go know say we don come

Stumbled on this song yesterday and it’s like this guy decided to sing about my current state of mind. 

I really like music. I have actual feelings for it. I’ve had a crush on a song before (don’t ask me how it felt), but this particular song is like a friend. It’s the motivation I needed today. I had a tiny experience this evening that normally would have made me feel bad, but I had this song right there… reminding what I had planned for the year.

I went for a run with founders today. Met people doing cool things. Some I couldn’t comprehend because what is a compressed air? But it was inspiring as hell. Had to leave early because of a subsequent appointment but I’m looking forward to the next. Speaking with someone about my product while running was tough lol but I’m proud of myself. 

Also, on my way to the run, my brother sends me the deck of someone doing something similar. Earlier this week, I found Doordash had launched something similar. I’m not worried about this. If anything, it’s validation that the market is ready and the timing is right. I just need to move faster.

I think I’m closer to getting a technical co-founder. I’ll know tomorrow, fingers crossed. I’ve also hired designers, in addition to the developer and copywriter I had gotten earlier. Hoping to have a ready platform in 3 weeks and go ham from then on.

Goal is 1,000 weekly active users by March 

And so my mantra is 

I go cut my coat oversize this year

I no waka reach here just to waka reach here

And if the tables no turn me I go change chair

Leave shame for back like bumbum
