Corruption

Corruption the putrid core Of the crop that cripples Trust that create crucial hold Between ruler and the ruled Greedily troubled equivocal thoughts of the cruel mankind Equipped with massive power over naturally resourced terra firma Die many times hopes and aspirations of the destitute. Amandla! Ngawethu!! Really? Sons and daughters of the golden continent Come to life and reclaim the immense power you possessed Reclaim the dignity and wealth your leaders traded for personal enrichment It’s time we make our leaders comprehend The significant detail that WE people govern And they should be scared stiff by your growl.
