Unashamed;
Filled with greed.
They sat in the mud they’ve invented,
sipping koolade from the cup in our hands.
_____
Our soul weeps
Our lips are dry, for lack of words—
to express our pain,
our hopelessness
Oh, the economic darkness
that hangs over our heads
____
A pocket full of rocks,
but we want peace and not war
We waited for a savior, but they
gave us Barabbas;
to rule over a weakling lamb.
_____
Let’s go the West
Let’s got to the west
Let’s go and drink
milk and honey.
Alas, no one knew what was
in stored —
a belly filled with illusional
promises, and hopes;
the catalyst of wanderers.
______
We died with our kids
We died from severe hunger;
Enroute to Rome.
____
We died with anger
When help never came
____
We died unfulfilled
We died unfulfilled
Cause our leaders emptied
the destiny in our cups
as we wandered like sheeps
without shepherds.
_____
Ah, we died like animals
We died like we were not humans
______
We are dead.
Unfulfilled.
Gone too soon.
Like a candle;
after the storm.
______
Millions will join us…
As long us greedy people
Rule the land of my fathers.
