Oh! My beloved country.
Oh! My beloved country.
Oh! My beloved country.
Oh! My Nigeria.
Our leaders of today
Are but mere actors
Playing an orchestrated act

They will sing the anthem
Yet,they steal with might and heart
Love of money
Strength of deceit
Faith in corruption
The labour of our heroes past is in vain

They will say the pledge
Yet,don't serve with all their strength
Not loyal,faithful and honest
As they pledge to be
Dividing our unity
And tarnishing Her Image

They swear by their holy books
Yet,go against all the doctrines of the books

They present all sort of enchanting manifests
Say all there is to be said
But yet,do nothing
Rather,they turn against their nation and people
Turn against their oaths and holy books

Who are they?
I need not to ask
As you need not to
They are none other but our comical leaders
That fill our ears with wax
And sings songs of empty promises

They put forth a staged act
Fight for bills
Pass the bills into law
Contractors get paid for unexisting contracts
Budgets are released
But the funds vanish into thin air
All but nothing is done

The subjects aren't any different
By all means,rich they want to become
They cheat at will
Scammers they are
He who has the big pocket
Has them to his use
No pride, no honour
Just acts of shame

Oh! My beloved country
Oh! My dear Nigeria
I weep for you
For I love you so
For you are in danger
You are in turmoil
But firm you still stand
I pray for you
To remain strong and solid
I hope for a change
But the chances are thin
I still pray though
With the help of GOD
It shall be well

it quit a good portrayal of your inner thoughts, but the incorporation of the "national anthem" just makes me feel uncomfortable with the write up, but good nonetheless.

thank you for candid opinion but my choice of incorperating the national anthem is to potray the negligence and betrayal rendered by our leaders. They go against everything they have sworn to defend,
