Please Kidnap Me by devimcy: 3:15pm On Nov 16, 2009 |
Please Kidnap Me I’m a Nigerian I’m an independent prisoner My leaders are my oppressors I’m blessed with abundance Yet deprived of its pleasure When I cried no one heard me When I pray it contends with my ceiling My soul is wearied n my body tired Please Kidnap me. I’m a Nigerian I was born with silver spoon Yet devour my meal with rubber I am a victim of all crises An attack in Iraq Can result to blood shed in my environ Dollars melt down Can result to naira freezing An outbreak of virus in china Can eliminate all of my country men n women So I am hunted by fear of survival Please kidnap me. I’m a Nigerian I wrote various tests to get to college Yet on graduation I live on the mercy of touts My institutions are confused as confusion itself They bridged the gulf between justice n evil with traps So we lost most of our brothers n sisters in their quest for truth And now I am afraid to exercise my right But endures to live with my left Please kidnap me. I’m a Nigerian Don’t be mad at me If you hear people call me militants Or labeled street urchins on the dailies My condition had left me with guns N my circumstance left me with empty plates I have combed the nooks n crannies of my town for job But found troubles I have erased all the letters of my key board editing my CV yet i found no job Please Kidnap me.
