Hello, Afri-Tunes community! It’s your boy @wealthwess, back for week #179 of our incredible musical event. I’m filled with energy and ready to share the vibes for this week. Today, I’m excited to present my cover of Gone For Good by the phenomenal Simi.

Simi is a Nigerian music finest, celebrated for her soul-stirring lyrics and a voice that feels like a gentle breeze on a warm day. Her ability to craft songs that blend raw emotion with captivating melodies is unmatched. Gone For Good is a masterpiece that showcases her signature storytelling, pulling listeners into a world of heartfelt reflection and bittersweet resolve. It’s a song that lingers in your heart, with every note carrying the weight of love, loss, and moving forward.

I chose Gone For Good for this week because it’s a track that resonates deeply. Its poignant lyrics and haunting melody capture the essence of letting go while cherishing memories that shaped us. It’s like a musical catharsis, speaking to anyone who’s ever had to say goodbye. I poured my heart into this cover, and I hope it connects with you as much as it does with me. Enjoy!

GONE FOR GOOD / LYRICS

The word around town
Is that, you're back in town
And I... try not to think about it, I try
But it's been so long
And I, thought I moved on
But... now I really doubt it, I do
I wonder why you even come
It's almost like you having fun with me
But oh if I set my eyes on you
It's unavoidable, I'll come undone
Oh I thought you were gone for good

So why do you have to pull me back
Sheybi you say
You won't be coming back o
Damn you, this is really bad
Sheybi you say
You were gone for good

Wetin you do wrong
Cause you knew all along
I was doing okay without you
You no want make I
Try to move on
Chai your heart is too strong
Can't be with you and can't be without you
The thing be say I
Wonder why you even come
It's almost like you having fun with me
But oh if I set my eyes on you
It's unavoidable, I'll come undone
Oh I thought you were gone for good
