The New Government by LifeofEl(m): 1:33pm On Nov 23, 2018 |
The New Government With the hopes of the young Ideals of the old, not a chance for the young They keep up the poker face for who though? The literates of an illiterate system A system that kills dreams The New Government Please tell us a story of four years wanting another A story that never gets old Or a story of pointing fingers The New Government The puppets of a puppeteer Strings pulled from ghost accounts Ghost accounts that grow fat daily A watcher laments The New Government Where information is never true Workforce making prejudice decisions A government of the people for the pipu by the people Deaf ears are a thing in a new government Will the green get greener, or the white whiter I ponder on this? The New Government with promises of old A promise on the tale Tale of the unsung heroes The heroes of valour The pacesetters of the old The New Government Tell us how the naira grows lesser by the day A naira who was a king, the king to all The naira of an old dream A government that gives a thousand for a million The New Government Should I continue to wait for what you promised? Should the labour of the heroes past go in vain? Ponder on this I shall Till I see unity and peace you preach And wait for godot ADEBAYO DANIEL DAMILOLA |
