Choosing a top 5 five favorite songs is like asking a mother to choose her favorite child.
Here goes the list after trimming the 500 songs on my playlist to 5.
∆ Coat of many colors By Dolly Parton:- This song is an everyday favorite song for me. It reminds me so much of my mum and the sacrifices she made for me. I don't wanna get emotional while typing this so I am just gonna leave it at this.
Favorite line:- One is only poor if they choose to be
∆ Sit still, look pretty by Daya:- The song lyrics is a wake-up call to every lady. In recent times, the expectations of the world from women have changed. No one wants a lady who believes she only needs a man to survive. Wake up from your barbie world

∆ Scars to your beautiful by Alessia Cara:- Remember I said something about having low self-esteem growing up in my previous post.it has always been a struggle growing up. This song has been a great way to assure me that I don't have to change a thing about who I am because people can accept me.
Favorite line:- No better you than the you that you are
∆ Therapy session by NF:- Around last year when I was battling with depression, I took to social media to write dark poems and poems Describing myself in a dead-end. A lotta people find it very easy to come to my DM to tell me how much they relate to my poem while some come to my DM to tell me to quit writing that kind of poem. The writing was/is my type of therapy. When I first listened to the Therapy session, I saw myself in the lines and every beat. I could relate totally to the line.
Favorite line:- If I wouldn't say what I said to your face, I won't say it private
∆ I'll find you by Lecrae ft Tori Kelly:- When I am down and I feel like I can barely move past another day, This song keeps me going with the constant reminder that God is there for me.
Favourite line:- Don't let the fear make you feel like you can't fight this on your own
