African Story

AFRICAN STORY(SLAVE IN OUR FATHERLAND)

Our story! Our story! Never change
We  are lost in the dark,
Not seen the light,
The stranger takes our home,
Make order,change our thought

They enslave us with change of suffering,
They took us from our fatherland,
They took away our fathers,
And turn they to cow in the field,
No water in the field,
To wet their tongue.

They become a native dog,
In their watch post,
Our women are left to suffer,
Our children are train has slave,
Our women are turn to sex machine.

Although we loss things,
But our colour remain .
