A DIRGE TO AFRICA
Just like South London, Africa is a heavy Cold Place.
Killings, Schemings, fishing and Prolonging of agendas.
They blame individuals and Celebrities
When they should have sued the government In a very cold case.
They allowed the same people who brought about slavery and Colonialism rebirth the lotted latter In a new way,
breaking and taking over our economic barriers.
The hopelessness, sufferings and pains Our youths see and taste.
Till Hard work nowadays is pointless and barely pays,
imagine a civil servant making less than a Lady Prostituting all overthe place,
fuck the system, hardworking members,
striving and working to chase a minimum wage,
only to retire at the maximum age,
expressing their total rage, the
Continent should have moved since,
but corruption and bad leadership has slowed down the Pace
Of Development and positive changes.
All Proto-Nationalists and Dead Presidents,
Men like Balewa, Azikiwe, Lumumba, Mandela, Kenyatta, Senghor & Nkrumah.
Who Put their lives on the line in the fight for freedom have nothing in their name, except to be named after places of residence.
If they could come back alive and see their efforts being thwarted in less than a Century
Will bite their fingers and Wish they didn't bother.
Some were brutally assassinated, Maimed, Exiled and Imprisoned
but like a Person who invested in a fallen Stock They have insufficient dividends.
Our current leaders don't care about the Masses,
they have no knowledge on the Craft of Political service, or what it encompasses, if so all our politicians would not skip the competent to help their corrupt brother.
The Dark Continent Where i'm from, Like our skin colour.
Is the State of our mind,
Because instead of praying for ones upliftment
an African Man Would wish his neighbour badly What a heart sore.
A lot of People choose to be evil, only few are kind.
This Potrays the pressures borne by a broken youth from a local area, hoping to one day soar, when he makes it big, he'll forget all the pains he once bore.
A lot of Cabals and Cabinets of Power,
Corrupt and make honest men monsters,
Power Intoxicates,
the ideas of having access to Public funds suffocates Mankind.
Bring out a Problem without Providing a Solution is just Criticism,
below are my recommendations, behold, the heavenly cure.
Change and flush out all the half-dead old men from Power,
with their dead brain cells and old vocabulary.
Experience is the best teacher, that's correct,
because If it was We wouldn't be where we are in Our Africa.
We can't allow the leaders of yesterday to drive us to a better tomorrow, they lack the sense of direction, urgency and capacity.
Secondly, We need to chase out all these evil foreign companies
that paint themselves as Multi-National cause they aren't good for us economically.
They exploit us and evade tax, they ignore us, give us less quality for more and Increase the Price,
cause what do you Mean Unilever Stocks have gone up twice.
That Stuff Can make a family man go bipolar.
They Collaborate with the government to make citizens lives harder,
they're used to embezzle and launder money they're not economical.
Furthermore, we need new reforms like more subsidies and financial grants.
Not slavish things like exploitative terms In student loans.
help the young arise, we are the future of Africa,
don't neglect us, that's what's causing brain drain, it's the benefits abroad that attracts.
Not financial assistance that will make them Slave and turn dry bones.
The youth attempt to grow but the lack of opportunities frustrate,
it stalls them right in their tracks.
Bring back the Western Education like Awolowo did, Tori Omo to ba Kawe ma sorire O matun lowo lowo.
but the government would rather use and throw the money like stones.
Going on, we need to Introduce Capital Punishment for corruption.
Cause its turned into a business and a stream of income.
Kidnapping, Organized terrorism, Nepotism, favoritism, Money Laundering but the mention a few
is what is killing and ruining West Africa Every African Nation.
These evil men Sponsor young Candidates
and then Mentor , form and mould them into the Monsters which they'll become.
This Poetic work is beyond a work of art
it's a Warning.
It's a reminder and revelation.
To let Africa develop and thrive.
Like Asa once said let Satan be gone.
Let's liberate and bring light to this dark continent Where we came from.
