AFRI - TUNES WEEK #179 || ALONE BY NEEJA || COVER BY T-JAY SONGS

There are friends who stick closer than a brother, this one of them for me. Constantly reminding of the fact that Jesus is right there with me always, physically and spiritually

Hey Afri-tunes family! 💚 This week, I’m bringing something soulful and heartfelt my cover of "Alone" by Neeja

Lyrics
When everything wọn dey fall apart
When my life no wọn make sense at all
My assurance is I'm not alone
Jesus, You are seated on the throne
When nobody fit to solve my case
When e be like say my life dey waste
My assurance is I'm not alone
Jesus, You are seated on the throne
I no dey alone
I no dey alone
Jesus, You are here with me
No matter what I face, I no fit lose my faith
Jesus, You are here with me
I no dey alone
I no dey alone
Jesus, You are here with me
No matter what I face, I no fit lose my faith
Jesus, You are here with me
I no dey alone, I no dey alone
I no dey alone, I no dey alone
When I don waka reach end of road
I am confident You're in control
I know You make a way
Where there seems to be no way
You say You no go leave me
Na my confidence be this
I no dey alone
I no dey alone
Jesus, You are here with me
No matter what I face, I no fit lose my faith
Jesus, You are here with me (I'm not alone)
I no dey alone
I no dey alone
Jesus, You are here with me
No matter what I face, I no fit lose my faith (oh, I)
Jesus, You are here with me (oh)
I no dey alone

This song has been living rent-free in my head for weeks, and I just had to share my own heartfelt interpretation. "Alone" speaks to that deep feeling we’ve all had at some point when the world feels quiet, people fade away, and you’re left with just you… and your thoughts. Yet in that solitude, there’s a search for hope, love, and connection. But in that darkness you will see light because we are never truly alone. Jesus is always right there with us.

It’s such a simple but deeply relatable cry for companionship. I approached this cover with raw emotion, letting every note carry the vulnerability the song deserves. I wanted listeners to not just hear the music but feel it and know the truth. To connect with the longing and honesty embedded in each word.

Afri-tunes has been such a blessing in giving African artists and music lovers a space to share their voice and connect through sound. Thank you to this amazing community for continuously supporting creativity and expression. 💛
