My Heart and My Own John

You Are My Heart - For John Izundu
By Your Wife, Promiseeee
Hello my sweet John...
This is from your wife, Promiseeee.
Thank you, thank you very much.
It’s not about the name... but it came straight from my heart.

Hello my sweet John, from your wife Promiseeee
Thank you, thank you very much, for loving me genuinely
It’s not about the name, no, it’s the man you’ve become
But it came straight from my heart, you’re my only one
You wake up and you grind, you carry us with pride
You cover this home like rain, you’re our shelter, our guide
From Ladikpo weighhouse, Olanibi streets, everywhere we go
Your name carries honor, babe, everybody knows

Alvira said you are her best friend, yeah, she’s not lying
Jephine called you her best friend too, no denying
Jephthah said you are his super herooooo, with his chest high
And I said… You are my heart and my own John

You are my heart and my own John
You are my heart and my own John
No other man I want to know
Even if you’re twins, I will still choose John

You are selfless, you are kind
Your words melt a broken heart, you know just what to say
When the world is too loud, your voice brings me calm
My prayers will always be with you, John Izundu, my psalm
The way you go around hustling
Raining and sun, just to put food in our home
Neglecting your health, just to make sure we are happy
You carry the weight quietly, but I see it, my love
You laugh with the kids, you play, you teach, you pray
You’re the reason this house is sweet every single day
No perfect man, but you try, and that’s what I see
That’s why I Promise will love you till eternity
