"Kensinsi" (pronounced /ken sin see/) in Ibibio/Efik (a Nigerian dialect)
translates "forever."
By the way, that's not yours truly in the image above. It's Dad and Mom
who my brothers and I fondly call "Sir & Mma." 1st of July marks 20 years of Sir's passing. I thought I'd start off celebrating his life early this year. |
Kensinsi
You are a never-ending story,
You bought my respect thru
the dreams you made real.
Kensinsi
I dedicate my life to
illustrate the lil things
You set in motion which turned
a simple life extraordinary.
Kensinsi
You are my hero, my shero;
you taught me to believe
So I can stare failure
between the eyes and still find reprieve
And it's always been that way
with you
And me as a kid running
around without a clue;
You are the reason I always
managed to pull thru.
It will take kensinsi to show
I appreciate you.
That's why I owe you,
Kensinsi
Ain't nobody gon' take the place
reserved for you, kensinsi;
In my heart I raised two
thrones and crowned you King and Queen.
It's all about you can't you
see?
With me and you it's kensinsi.
I love you kensinsi nsinsi. (Forever and ever)
