Maintenance Culture

Maintenance culture People and culture Like bee and honey Too much energy spent In portraying a culture Well believed as a way of life In places Maintenance culture A culture far from humanity Is a failed culture A culture that promote humanity Is worth an everlasting try and try again Maintenance culture We need to preserve our history We need to preserve our Hero's past gone oh Africa We need to preserve and maintain All values of our accessors They never laboured in vain So we are to adore and keep Their legacy a honour Maintenance culture Africans now I write to you all Where is the maintenance culture We once value Now people don't care So many don't even know their root As an African Our school don't even teach us How important is to maintain And preserve our resources Is like we are just supporters Looking so confuse and so scard A lot we believe we can't Do Oh African why have thou fallen For babylon is and must always Come after us Maintenance culture With out Africa I just wonder What will be of the world Before and now Every one are friends to Africa That makes me wonder Who is an enemy as it is not Written but the scars now we Bear speaks a lot Maintenance culture Oh African we need to boast our Ways We need not change to other ways That defiles our dignity A lot we have a lot we got to maintain For already a lot we lost So where is our maintenance culture We once showed the world back Then the days of our ancestors Now why do we don't care Destroying our selves Fight and devaluing each other Was not our culture So now all you and I can see Is a down fall that invite hunters To devour all we got to maintain Maintenance culture If you are an African I pledge you help maintain our worth If you are not an African I pledge Do Africa no harm For already is enough all this Evil shower around my continent From out and with in So as we all see we need a lot Hands together oh brethren to successfully Bring back our Maintenance culture
