Growing up in Bauchi state
Life was hard but it was great
Michael Jackson on repeat
Dancing in the dusty street
Days were long but nights were bright
Stars in the sky oh such a sight
Memories of a childhood gold
Stories of the love we hold
Oh choice my nickname now
Echoes from the past somehow
I find light in days once dark
Even though life left its mark
Mom and Dad both far away
Angels watching over they say
Tears they fall but I stand tall
Voices whisper through it all
In the rhythm I find peace
Lost in music sweet release
Heartache tangled with the joy
Memories of when I was a boy
Michael's tunes still guide my flight
In this journey through the night
To the future from the past
Holding on to love that lasts
Michael's tunes still guide my flight
In this journey through the night
To the future from the past
Holding on to love that lasts
Holding on to love that lasts
