Born a princess in March 1997 but now just a regular Joe she had done the unthinkable. Daughter to the king and queen of Southern Nigeria she was born into wealth.

"I wonder how we went frm spending the day together, showing and telling each other just how much we loved one another to buying presents for only one half of the pie...What a facade."

“Kongo” by Sun Set

Allow me to take you back in time.Back in time to when a thirteen year old young boy existed.His name was Kongo and he was as unique as they came.You are probably thinking "ooh he must have had superpowers."Well I guess you could say that,but his superpower came nowhere close to swinging from building to building or throwing a hammer only he could yield.His superpower was the ability to change his mind faster than the speed of light.In short,he got bored easily and so the journey to end the boredom began. The initial motivation kicked in a...
