Let There Be Light

Let there be light Today October 1st 2014 Nigeria celebrate 54year of Independent Let there be light Now To the men on the hills We are tired of darkness We are feed up of heat Our light builds are tired to sleep The wires are whiling to catch life Our food cry for preservation The fan can't help the air Our tv are tired of no touch Our phone batteries need to be charge Our cloths need to be strengthen Despite all Every month end we get bills For what we never enjoyed A scam With no explanation Let there be light Nigeria is the biggest Economy of Africa Yet we lake constant electricity the common man no not The meaning of electricity All day we burn fuel With a power generator Where some die from it pollution Let there be light Light up the land And watch growth Flow like a tap without A head The people are in need of life How do you keep Calm while we suffer To nothing Let there be light On your hills In our hot weather You sleep with an Air condition Hello sir I wonder How your head Keep cool if you Lack electricity In that mansion of yours I wonder how you enjoy Your luxurious properties With out the light Yet you fail to provide It to your people Let there be light Only a fool enjoys To allow poverty To live among his own Community Only a cowards live to Only show up his hight of No knowledge nor wisdom The light is a necessity Darkness is evil Like is obvious We pledge to you sir's On the hill Let there be light
