Vibes web3 music competition week3, it an honor to be here again this week to share my rendition. I have taken time to listen to the melodies of passion and performance by different people here and I must say this is beautifully amazing. I really want to thank the leader of this great community @lordbutterfly for such a brilliant idea, making space for singers and instrumentalists to express themselves and also get rewarded for their amazing performance.

I will be rendering a song titled "Coat of Many Colors." By DOLLY PARTON But this rendition is more than just a song, it's one of my favorite piece that lift up my spirit each time I listen to the piece. My choice of "Coat of Many Colors" as the piece I want to share for this week's competition speaks volumes and the values this song hold dearly in my heart. I'm someone who is born from humble beginningsl, the song passes a deep message that we can overcome adversity and embrace the unique journey of life and that's depends on choice.

In a world like this where wealth and those who are privilege often dictate one's worth, my decision to embrace this song is a powerful declaration of self-worth and inner richness to me as a person. Despite not being born into opulence, I strongly understand that true wealth lies in the richness of the heart and soul, not in material possessions one can get from this world.

Lyrics

Back through the years
I go wonderin' once again
Back to the seasons of my youth
I recall a box of rags that someone gave us
And how my momma put the rags to use
There were rags of many colors
But every piece was small
And I didn't have a coat
And it was way down in the fall
Momma sewed the rags together
Sewin' every piece with love
She made my coat of many colors
That I was so proud of

As she sewed, she told a story
From the Bible she had read
About a coat of many colors
Joseph wore and then she said
Perhaps this coat will bring you
Good luck and happiness
And I just couldn't wait to wear it
And momma blessed it with a kiss

My coat of many colors
That my momma made for me
Made only from rags
But I wore it so proudly
Although we had no money
I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me

So with patches on my britches
And holes in both my shoes
In my coat of many colors
I hurried off to school
Just to find the others laughing
And making fun of me
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me

And oh, I couldn't understand it
For I felt I was rich
And I told 'em of the love
My momma sewed in every stitch
And I told 'em all the story
Momma told me while she sewed
And how my coat of many colors
Was worth more than all their clothes

But they didn't understand it
And I tried to make them see
That one is only poor
Only if they choose to be
Now I know we had no money
But I was rich as I could be
In my coat of many colors
My momma made for me
Made just for me
