A Message To British Politicians
Have you listen, Have you heard
Have you seen, have you lived
Do you truly know
You walk the streets
You say, you understand, you will change
Do you truly hear
Do you care
We are people, we are a nation
We are broken and divided by your lies
You are our leaders
You were meant to guide us
To lead us out of the land of suffering and poverty
Yet you unclothe us and strip us of our garments
You take away our rights and our freedom to be free.
You manipulate us, trick us and teach us to deceive
We have become a divided nation an enemy to our brother a traitor to our sister
A coward to our neighbor
And a stranger to our children we are a lost generation.
Great leaders who are you
We are the same
We are humans
Separated only by circumstances
You truly want to know us
Wear our shoes walk our pathway
Live our lives
Let circumstances and experience be your tutor and guide
Maybe then you will grow to understand the cry of your people.
