Hey hive open mic community, it's week #171 of the community and I am glad I have ready this presentation which is in line with the theme of this week which is divorce/separation chosen by the spot light artist of this week @merit.ahama.
This song brought up a lot of memories as I had to relive the moment in which I knew the song, u shared this sing with some of my friends to listen to as I felt very emotional while listening to the song again.
The song is about the separation of two sisters who are twins , the eldest twin dies after a brief sickness leaving the other, so the second twin sings this song as a tribute to her just a few days after her death. The song is filled with sorrow and grief but also hope, as the singer reflects on the beautiful memories they shared. She is determined to carry on in her sister's memory and never forget her.
I actually cried a lot while learning the lyrics of this song. She believes that her sister will always be with her in spirit. The song serves as a reminder of her sister's legacy, and to never give up on her dreams. It serves as a source of inspiration and strength to keep going. This song is titled "Reflection"
Trying to find my heartbeat
Suddenly it dawned on me you 're gone
It seems as if you still here I can still feel you so near
With everything reminding me of you
The love we shared, the pains we beared the memories we had
And how I am gonna live with you
Chorus:
Mirror mirror , where's my reflection
I can't just find the word to describe all that you are
Ah! Ole o, Afikioluwa ran milowo
But you told me to be strong
And now I have to move on
I'm trying hard to be strong, I have unfulfilled dreams inside of me
I'll pick left of myself up, I'm gonna lift my head up
You see, I'm gonna do you proud
The love we shared the pain we learned the memories we had
And how am I gonna gonna live
without you
( Back to Chorus)
Bridge:
What do you do when your world crashes down?
What do you do when your shadow leaves you in the dark?
What do you do when you feel so empty inside
Lord I need your help cause I can't do this on my own
(Back to chorus).
I couldn't find the lyrics online so I had to type manually
Thanks For Watching
