Richard Nnoli Poet Epic

Break the Game

break the game
In this circle 
The circle of our  civilisation now
Lie our stolen freedom 
yes it right if you know it right 
So simple yet complicated 
This answers to our freedom 
Free is free who say so 
Now will die young 
So we stay silence in Africa 

Break the game
Do you know who you are 
Why do you think you are just here 
Yes here on our dear planet earth
Have it ever occur to you 
That all that is free is now a debt 
Oh So you think you get free with those  
Notes in it high figures 
Stored in 4 square room
Close with strong metal doors
Sorry you must be losing the best 
While you adore the worst in deceit

Break the game  
Who is perfect cast the first stone 
For my soul is willing yet to see
Who is free now let  him say how 
No I don't understand 
Understand this freedom in it forms
I don't understand how is possible 
The good is underground so cold 
And rotten so quick 
Like it said the good die young 
I don't understand how the bad is 
Praise on their hills
No I don't understand this freedom 
I don't understand how people 
Are more or less followers 
Are we free so please tell me how 

Break the game 
I thought I was free 
But I saw the birds are more free
Than I am
I thought I was free but I can't see
How it possible 
If I don't break the game 
This man made ignorance game
This powerful hills 
Those high walls standing 
How Can I pull them down 
Even doe I can't fly above them
So I saw the birds were more free
Than I am 
Only They could fly above those 
Walls so freely and free

Break the game 
I just want to be free 
Is not a crime 
There must be a way 
This old ways are not sure 
This old ways are not working right 
How can I speak and not be free
How can I write this words constantly 
You must be insane some say 
Yet they are also not free
Same circle still controls all 
Now it don't allow so many minds 
Open 
All people now more or less followers 
Why am I here?
So I rebel with just this one 
Question 
Now am there 
There where the good are called 
Insane 
Just because I 
Break the game
