A place once admired,
Now revered.
A continent once great,
Now in a helpless state.
Great West Africa
Once maker of great decisions,
Now stuck with wars on religion.
A place once thought to be like heaven,
Now described as a burden.
West Africa
Once a place of limitless attention,
Now at the center of relentless corruption.
How long will we starve,
Whilst they feed of our backs.
Great West Africa
How much more will we handle,
Whilst they destroy our perfect cradle.
How will there be a brighter future,
If we don't fight for a better stature.
West Africa
For how long will we wander,
Whilst they stay and squander.
How long will they call us uncivilized,
Whilst they sit at the top spreading lies.
Great West Africa
A place to be feared,not for our "savagery" as they say,
But for our unending courage to stay.
Africa will rise again,
Never to relive the pain. |
