SMILE


 

I know you got nothing to live for,

But for you being alive smile

 

Smile for life the future brings in your arms &

For that embrace it with hugs

 

Smile & live not in the past,

But for the dawns blast

That breaks for the day light

 

Smile,

For not your loneliness at dusk

but for a peace in mind &

That you can still slumber freely at night, smile

 

Smile,

For you still have a heart

to grow a foreign child

 

Mama Africa don’t cry

Smile you’ve raised i a son.

KIDS



Ornaments of life,
That adorned this living like beads, playful things
To the hands of the giver
They like stones sent forth from us slings, precious stones
things that shoot us future sweetness’s, when we wingless
from their nest they nurses us still, beautiful things
In this dense & dark life we live in
They bring hope, with their giggling laughters & a light
With their joyful smiles, a strength
In this long & lonely life miles

World please, from this struggle & turmoil
Save these seeds from sins, beautiful things

GUITARS OF DEATH



Breath taking tunes,
Soulless bodies in queues
On the African vast dusty stages,
Is where demise dance once took place & still, rage’s

Cross firing notes,
To escape the rhythm there was no chance, as systemically still is.

Sons of god over sons of soil,
Misunderstanding led to blood shedding.
Sons of soil over sons of god,
Evils feasting resulted to life divorce &
Engagement of the nation to death wedding

The father wept while Mother nature was crying
For misdeed of their sons

hopeful smiles,
were then made by rising of freedom sun,
Where black & white were able to rub their cold shoulders,
Showing crocodile smiles

Not for long walking on liberty miles,
joy turn to bitter smiles
For freedom was individualised
for black agent swine’s
that were not only freed to self-indulge
but to flaw the sacred African ground

now this day, is  & time that we repent &
resent more than guitars of death.

Guitars of death are instruments of the west,
That were meant to rob us of wealth, health & strength
So to slave & bow on them sons of god

As time folds this nation tend to be cold,
Not of the west scold
but of our man who sold us for a life of gold



now this day, is & time that we repent &
resent more than guitars of death.
