The Cry of Africa
In the heart of Africa... a tale unfolds,
of oil and gold... diamonds and coal
riches untold... of lands turned cold.
Our soil, a treasure... deep and vast
Yet stolen by shadows from the very past.
Corrupt leaders sit... on lofty thrones
Trading futures... for foreign loans.
They dine in luxury... in gold arrays,
While the people suffer... lost in haze.
The streets are weary... hope is thin
Promises broken... time and time again.
They speak of change... with polished lies
ELÖFÖKANBALÈ... now, our tensions hyped
While...
of oil and gold... diamonds and coal
riches untold... of lands turned cold.
Our soil, a treasure... deep and vast
Yet stolen by shadows from the very past.
Corrupt leaders sit... on lofty thrones
Trading futures... for foreign loans.
They dine in luxury... in gold arrays,
While the people suffer... lost in haze.
The streets are weary... hope is thin
Promises broken... time and time again.
They speak of change... with polished lies
ELÖFÖKANBALÈ... now, our tensions hyped

Letter To America
Dear America and your illusion of greatness. Your wealth and prosperity and honor and democracy. Has not been built upon these principals and ideals, that you wish others to believe that this country was built upon.
It was built upon a theft of a nation, the blood and sweat of a nation and human degradation. Not on the moral grounds of humanity, yet it was built on the dehumanization of the people you have violently snatched it from.
On the whipped backs of slaves, and on the trail of tears that you have created. What civilization have you given those that you have...

The lie that Passive Means Weakness
Me: Minding my business as I drink with my friend and his friends in order to be supportive and get to know them.
Them: “Trump will save America”
Me: “Ok.” I take a sip and avoid the the tangents going on around me, but roll my eyes involuntarily as their never ending rants go on and on. It's not enough that I am silently enduring this abuse. I'm choosing not to speak on it. And yet …
Them: “Oh, looks like we got a feminist! I can guess, but, who are you voting for?” He knows, but needs the verbal confirmation to drive his point home.
Me: Kamala....

Citizens of the Pipeline Empire
Diddy going to jail is like rewarding him for his alleged crime
It’s just giving him unlimited access to confined behind,
“Now instead of licking pink waterfalls
He will be licking dick and balls,
“Now he is running hard like a mangy dog in a shelter’s backyard
Thinking he’s free until that choking chain cut off his bark,
“That is how many of us live our everyday life
Dining on danger and dancing on the edge of the nuclear knife,
“Being only one terrorist act away from the eternal black
Now you slave...

Conflicts
The US government is the mastermind of all the major conflicts that are currently happening.
America desperately wants to dominate and enslave the entire world.
They cunningly build hatred among other nations to achieve their aim.
It gives the impression that many countries are blind to the satanic strategy of the Americans.
NATO is like a bloodsucking parasite; it cannot be trusted at any time.
The members of this loathsome organization are filthy liars and warmongers.
All NATO countries are slaves of the Americans, but they do not...

Unshackled Yet Enchained (Nigeria's Cry)
October 1st, a day of claimed pride,
Nigeria's independence, a partial stride,
From colonial chains, we broke the mold,
But subtle bonds remain, our progress to hold.
The masters left, but their systems stay,
Institutions rigged, to keep us at bay,
Economic strings, pulled from afar,
Our resources exploited, like a scar.
Foreign powers meddle, with hidden hands,
Influencing policies, that grip our lands,
IMF and World Bank, with conditional ties,
Shackling our growth, with debt's disguise.
Our leaders, puppets on a...

Government is a Scam
Government is a sanctioned shell game that lets contributing and controlling businesses make gobs of money out the wazoo while sticking "it" deep into me and you
Well Damn It's a Scam
Whether by truck, plane, or tram
Do crime against Big Business
And with Fed Tyme you'll be slammed
Reagan "fired" striking air traffic controllers
Canada's Prime Minister "intervened" against the railroad workers
Biden "took an interest" and "offered assistance" for Teamsters and rail workers to find resolution...

Are you Ready For The 2025 Agenda
In a section titled "The Family Agenda," the proposal recommends the Health and Human Services chief "proudly state that men and women are biological realities," and that "married men and women are the ideal, natural family structure because all children have a right to be raised by the men and women who conceived them."
Further, a program within the Health and Human Services Department should "maintain a biblically based, social science-reinforced definition of marriage and family."
During his first four years in office,...

Andrew
The man they call Andrew is not a god, as he seems to think, he is just a public servant.
I for one do not respect him; neither will I ever regard him as a prime minister.
He is obviously an arrogant man, and he does not respect the people of Jamaica.
The stupid and ignorant people of this country elected him as prime minister.
Young people who do not know anything about economics and finance vote for politicians.
The majority of young voters do not even know what they want for their country.
Andrew reacts negatively to almost every unpleasant thing...

Truth Serum
How real can you be with a person
bullshit aside
Put these radical thoughts in your head
like fuck preconceived pride
Really real talking facts
not censored caring of perception
Be Offensive Speaking Truth
with no redacted reflection
The world’s full of dumb fucks
in howling applause like trained seals
Passionate mesmerized in stupidity
overzealous they can’t keep it real
Let alone common sense or critical thinking
to decipher deceptive holes in life
As if trapdoors in a world of unknowns
are labeled in black and...

If Only Sheep Need A Leader, Then Why Are You Such A Follower?
Hello sheep of planet earth
I'm here to tell you something about most of you
You're all being duped as you live your pathetic, mundane lives
The ruling class are watching and following every single move you make
Don't forget, get the latest smart device for yourself or for your home
You deserve it
Can you picture life without all of these awesome, high-tech devices
No!?
I figured you'd answer with no
You're all so goddamn lame and fake
Everyone is so comfortable and lethargic
That's the key to their control
You all rather watch some...

Big Mac
I don't encourage violence
but I wouldn't cry
if he ate one too many cheeseburgers
the Republican god
sent by the baby Jesus
he was put on this earth
to grab women by the pussy
has 25 sexual assaults and counting
walking in on miss teens dressing
cheated on all of his wives
is on Epstein list for personal massages
but we don't talk about that
no, you won't explain that
you're so low
I can see you at the end of my toe
tell me how you look in the mirror
knowing what you're voting for
or do you...
