History Leaf by Ycmia: 8:19pm On Aug 29, 2017 |
HISTORY LEAF Those bastards and betrayers of communal trust, Suckers and drainers of masses sweats. Those who have wrinkled Our green rising age They, the obsequious agent of imperialism The devoted minion of neo-conolialism Those who in their faculty Rooted in shackling and caging our land, Fixing Africans in odious independence, Making capitalism eternal, Running down our resilient energy For the sight of tomorrow's light. They are the riped citrus Who dares to lash its mama. They are the beast, the he-goat Who ask for its gold's back in bed There are first class prodigals Who priced us cheaply to the forbidden skin From across the sea. Are we not the civilization craddle? The Egypt pyramid - an evidence. The first man is Owu man We knew that from science Let's sprayed out all living In the land of sahara, If the earth won't spin to halt. Nkurumah is away forever Shankara we had lost to the ghosts' land Gadaffi has recieved an handshake with the spirit Mandela now owns an apartment down below Awo, Zik and Sardauna Had quenched thier thirst from Asarailu's pot. The home now empty, only people's noise could be heard. We call upon the dead, When the living efforts in naught Youth! I mean you That's not your seat Go open the history leaf. ®HAT |
