Timi Dakolo.  Today,  I want to write about a singer that I admire so much. I am a lover of his music and I've been inspired by lyrics in the lines of his songs. His name is Timi Dakolo. He was born on the 20th of January, 1981 in Accra, Ghana  but his dad was a Nigerian, his mum a Ghanaian. Unfortunately, Timi lost his mum (Mrs. Norah Dakolo) when he was just thirteen years old. However, Timi Dakolo lived with his grandma (Ateni Dakolo and aunt (Susan Larry) in Port Harcourt and refused to live in Lagos with his parents because of the strong bond that existed among the three of them. Timi Dakolo said it in his song Let It Shine that his grandma was his inspiration and his earliest motivator even when things looked daunting and hopeless.  Timi Dakolo in a close up shot. He began singing in church at twelve and from there onward, he became notable in the church and his immediate environment as a promising and talented singer. In 2003, Timi Dakolo joined a singing group

Breakfast and dinner They seem to be passing away so fast They come when we are lonely but leave so fast They don't wait for lunch and dinner They come for breakfast and leave at noon But their adversary come and stay for long They wait for lunch and dinner Even though they aren't welcomed If not for the birds at night They would never leave  The birds come to our rescue by singing melodiously Making the lamentable moments leave But sadly they still come back at noon for lunch and dinner Birds birds birds Sing sing sing No reply The birds has refused to sing Oh oh oh Birds Why Our lamentable moments They have refused to leave Our melodious voice aren't helping They have lost their melodious tune They are hoarse They are rauque They are rauco Oh why  now When we need them to sing The sad moments away They've refused to help We are left alone We are to make our own decisions We are left to sit with the lamentable moments alone.
