onesimo odwa mabovula - If I wasn’t, then I’d be

2014-11-08 3

If I wasn’t a soul taker in your eyes,
I’d be a salt taker in the eyes of the world.
If I wasn’t your main man,
Then I would be nothing but a man to the rest of the world.
If your thank you was just a pleasure to me,
It’d be undervalued.
If you did not dig me,
I’d be worth way less than platinum.

So, on that note I say take me away,
like you take my breath away.
I’ve heard a man say,
“Your presence is healing”.
If that’s all there’s to it then
I’d be… well lost for words.

Because to me you like the giver of life
Eve is what I’d call you, Adam I’d be.
The rib provider of your creation,
the man who would not rest till a smile is on your face.
