I've listened to this song countless times and I still get floored by those beat switches. Those bass lines and the flow...Inject this in my veins right now!
Me my family and my sisters love this song. This song is on repeat. Wande is such a great role model especially when I’m a little girl that needs more great people like this. Great job wande💕💕💕
T. F. I see how you could have interpreted the comment I said in a negative light. I’m using it in a positive light though I’m saying this is straight fire
Devil's not the only one with power. God doesn't need to ask his permission. A key for every door, and doors for brick walls. We just have to get out of the way and not intercept God's glory. This track has power in it.
@itsanike we need a music video...and most importantly, a RU-vid short of the "free my mind" verse. Keep repping the Kingdom.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Much love from a Naija queen.
