Blessing Offor was born in Nigeria with almost complete blindness in one eye. His parents, in the hopes that they could save some of his vision, made the gut wrenching decision to allow a 6-year-old Blessing to move to America with an Uncle to be able to get help at Yale Medical Center.
Blessing Offor - My Tribe Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You can keep your money
You can keep your gold
I'll keep the ones who want me
Won't ever let me go
You can keep your fast lane
And I'ma take it slow
Ticket on that last train
And I'ma make it home to
[Chorus]
My people, my tribe
My village, my vibe
My Beatles, my Jackson Five
My reason, my rhyme
My ready anytime
Yeah, everything is all right
[Post-Chorus]
When we come together
Come together, my people, my tribe
When we come togеther
Come togethеr, everything is all right
[Verse 2]
I don't want no trouble
(I don't want no trouble, no)
Just a little rest for my soul
And I know where to run to (Yeah)
When the world gets cold, ooh
[Chorus]
My people, my tribe
My village, my vibe
My Beatles, my Jackson Five
My reason, my rhyme
My ready anytime
Yeah, everything is all right
[Post-Chorus]
When we come together
Come together, my people, my tribe
When we come together
Come together, everything is all right
[Bridge]
Everything is all right
Everything is all right, yeah-yeah
Everything is all right, oh-oh-oh
When we come together everything is all right
Everything is all right (Yes, it is)
Everything is all right
Everything is all right, oh-oh-oh
When we come together everything is all right
[Chorus]
My people, my tribe
My village, my vibe
My Beatles, my Jackson Five
My reason, my rhyme
My ready anytime
Yeah, everything is all right
[Post-Chorus]
When we come together
Come together, my people, my tribe
When we come together
Come together, everything is all right
