My Brothers, How Life? by HappyPagan: 10:58pm On Oct 08, 2020
You are dying inside
You are screaming inside
The world around you is bringing you down

You keep slipping, falling,
You are boiling inside.
Your belle never full, you don't know what to do
You are angry inside


Our people belle don empty
Our government don leave us for London
Our government don leave us go US
Dem don borrow our future for World Bank
Dem don collect our future go IMF
Make we try legit, dem come use SARS dey gun us.



My child, my pikin,
na so the Elders dey chop us,
Naija youth is living in bondage,
The circle of doom dey follow am like bad luck
Rituals and beheadings, their head don full with dumb talk
Na Israel and Mecca, im God dey come from..
Abuja na where our demons dey haunt us...
Nigeria na bad dream, 60 years of talk talk,
Hunger na our calling, they have turned us to monsters...
