Kenny Wonder Ft. Oritse Femi- One By One (ENGLISH TRANSLATION, LYRICS, AND MEANING)
a powerful song filled with deep rooted Yoruba proverbs, warning; “Beware of
humans” humans don’t want to see you make it. Same humans would be the one
doing you and also sympathize with you. That makes me remember an inscription
in front of a house which says “aaah Eniyan” (hmmn! Human!!!). To
enjoy this song you really need the translation, else you will get lost, so, we
have made life easy for you by providing the English Translation, Lyrics and
meaning to the track titled: ONE BY ONE by Kenny Wonder Ft. Oritse Femi.
