Ink of our tears comes with price of murder verdicts declaring our freedom
My black skin color is a crime scene for my birthright, for my well-being for my freedom because I’m foreign in land of my forefathers. Colonialism assignment done in liberation struggles, given me those remarks to downgrade my self-esteem.
Concrete mental colonialism taught me that I don’t qualify to attain qualities of a human being and admirable life. How loud can rhythms of my thoughts be when I’m using horn of Chris Hani voice and facial expression?
Colonialism demolished my rights, demolished my voice. Now my tears and sweat are only loudly whistling by touching instincts of the African resemblance through emotions.
Politics has turned a blind eye on humanity and collective belief in tribes of our bloodline.
Racism tone is still flourishing and cuts scars of liberation deeper into the wounds of blood oils gears tearing our African unity into pieces.
Africa you are rich if you don’t use greedy leaders as they plan generational wealth for their families than feeding growth to waves of the moon which is members of society.
Committed crime of our brothers was for declaring their actions to protect wealth of their land and to be given back dignity for their families to be freed and dance to melodious voices of peace.
Landscape of freedom is still guilty to engrave those who died calling its roots to prevail in eyes of hopeless.
I still say your wealth is inside your golden heart Africa, just use recipe of righteousness amongst your grandchildren so that baton of your supremacy can prevail in cruising ideological spheres of growth and better lives that best suit everyone.
Womb of sorrows given birth to leaders who are honored for being criminals because their worth is glorifying continued poverty by stealing more to cripple African economy.
Maybe my pen is not yet aged to remember sword of your efforts on veins of my people.
My believe is that God’s hand will help where I cannot.
