Love is such a powerful tool, it can make and break, cause wars and even heal nations, but one thing that can happen when you fall in love is heartbreak and unrequited love.
As humans we were created to love, we feel empty when we don't have love and we often crave it, but what happens when you fall in love and the person you love doesn't love you back or even falls out of love halfway, well, “we get hurt”.
A while ago, I got to experience my first heartbreak at my big age, I kept questioning myself, and even though eventually, I got over it; faster than I even thought I would, it still hurt a whole lot to the point where I practically shut the world out.
While going through this I began listening to this song, I had always loved it but I never connected to it as deeply as I did during this time and it felt really comforting.
Bibanke by Asa is such as amazing song and I can't even do justice to it enough, it speaks to my heart whenever I hear it and it shares a powerful message of good times in love and the bad times.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy my rendition of this song even though I murdered the Yoruba, thank you for watching.
LYRICS: BIBANKE BY ASA
I wake up
I see you as you leave
I feel it
I see it as you leave
When we kiss I went deep
But you're far away
Bibanke, bomi ba n shon
Fi mi si le
Bibanke, bojo ba n ro
Fi mi si le
He used to be my everything
Treated me like I was a queen
What spell did you cast on me?
Or is it a make believe?
You say a girl never be afraid
Of ever, ever loving me
Those words I hung on too
Oh God, I was a fool
You became my bad habit, keeping up appearances
So you could notice
Even when you suddenly, picked your things and left the keys
That's crazy
Bibanke, bomi ba n shon
Fi mi si le
Bibanke, bojo ba n ro
Fi mi si le
Bibanke o, ko kun basia
Fi mi sile
Bibanke o, ko kun basia, ko kun basia
Mo ti foro mi fo lu wa ko sho, ko sho
Mo ti foro mi fo lu wa ko sho, ko sho
Iwo, Iwo nikan shosho
Iwo, Iwo nikan shosho
Iwo, Iwo nikan shosho
Iwo, Iwo nikan shosho
Iwo, Iwo nikan shosho
Iwo, Iwo nikan shosho
Iwo nikan shosho o
Iwo nikan shosho
Iwo nikan shosho ooh
Oh, when I'm crying
When I'm dying
Just leave me alone
I can cry a river or a waterfall
Just leave me alone
Leave me alone
Moti f'oro mi f'oluwa o
