Godiya: A Living Testimony

Yes Godiya ❤️ let’s make it feel like home.

Mixing English + Igbo + Hausa + Pidgin makes testimonies hit different. People will feel it in their bones.

Here’s a full draft for you:

---

*"Godiya’s Testimony"*

_Afrobeats Gospel_

*Verse 1*

Victoria Daniel, na so dem call me

But God call me Godiya

Born for barracks, under military roof

Pikin of Daniel and Tarfena Tetmunt

2022 darkness nearly swallow me

Toxic love wan take my life

But Jesus say "No, this one is mine"

*Pre-Chorus*

Chi m ekwela, ka m daa

Allah bai bari na mutu ba

God no gree make I die

*Chorus*

Eze n’elu, na God ooo

Godiya dey give You praise

From barracks to Your glory

You saved my life in 2022

Na mercy, na grace, na Your hand

I’m still here, I’m still standing

Godiya go shout Your name

*Verse 2*

Dem talk say I no go survive

Say that relationship go finish me

But God say "My daughter, arise"

You wipe my tears, You mend my heart

Now I dance, now I sing

Because na You keep me living

*Bridge*

Odogwu, Ebube, You dey there for me

Allah mai rahama, nagode

No weapon formed against me prosper

‘Cause Godiya is a living testimony

*Last Chorus*

Thank You Jesus, thank You Lord

Godiya no go forget You

From pain to praise, from death to life

2022 to now, na Your doing

I’m alive today, na You do am

How does that feel to you?

We can:

1. *Tweak any lines* to sound more like how _you_ talk

2. *Add more Hausa* if you grew up speaking it in the barracks

3. *Make a shorter 1-minute version* for TikTok/Reels

Which part touches you most, Godiya? And do you want me to add a call-and-response section for choir?
