Aftermath Of Falz’s Song “Weh Don Sir”, Lagos Churches Cries Out Over Poor Tithe Incomes
The country is going through hell currently and Nigerians are going through a lot just to survive. Yet, we still attend churches & mosques hoping to God to bless our Work and get good income.
Believe me, Nigeria’s Religious leaders are
balling, flying private jet and driving exotic cars while 90% of their members are languishing in poverty but it seems thats about to end.
Falz just opened our eyes with his new song titled “Weh Don Sir “. Nigerians took that song personal and now the Pastors are complaining bitterly. We just pray they don’t get Falz locked up – Dem no even fit.
In the Song, Falz explained how Nigerian pastors are flying around the world with their Family all getting robust and fresh while their church members are praying and hoping to God for just One square meal daily
See the Lyrics Falz used in his new song below:-

LYRICS
"From Here To The Moon And Back"
(with Willie Nelson)
I could hold out my arms and say "I love you this much"
I could tell you how long, I will long for your touch
How much and how far, would I go to prove
The depth and the breadth of my love for you
From here to the moon and back
Who else in this world will love you like that?
Love everlasting I promise you that
From here to the moon and back
From here to the moon and back
I want you to know you can always depend
On promises made and love without end
No need to wonder how faithful I'll be
Now and on into eternity
From here to the moon and back
Who else in this world could love you like that?
Forever and always I'll be where you're at
From here to the moon and back
From here to the moon and back
I blow you a kiss as I wish on a star
Counting my blessings for all that you are
Thank heaven for you and to God tip my hat
From here to the moon and back
And I'll spend forever just proving that fact
From here to the moon and back...
(Who will love you like that?)
From here to the moon and back
Oh-oh, mm-mm
