LIFE AS IT SEEMS
It's no more news to ears
Even then, it's like a stale
"Nature" our guide is bias
And man's thought seems thus
The heads to global crowns sees not of just
But quil as a tool to our treasury loot
The poor are nail as the ugly
As the activist tend to be bad
While the unlocked rich inmate is seen as the good
All now sees theft as wisdom
Even the cuffed hands is now a title
With misdeeds drizzling as rain on our soil
We know not of our true call
For it's the chosen path by our past
A live for life.
Lamina, Shefiudeen Oluwatosin
Even then, it's like a stale
"Nature" our guide is bias
And man's thought seems thus
The heads to global crowns sees not of just
But quil as a tool to our treasury loot
The poor are nail as the ugly
As the activist tend to be bad
While the unlocked rich inmate is seen as the good
All now sees theft as wisdom
Even the cuffed hands is now a title
With misdeeds drizzling as rain on our soil
We know not of our true call
For it's the chosen path by our past
A live for life.
