Covid-19; Hunger-20
Covid-19; Hunger-20 (A duet)
Wems Henry Temmy
If money can turn the wise fool
What will agony be to bones that suffer calcium?
If death is a pleasure to watch a game on stool
What shall bring fear to the heart dwelling in crematorium?
It is true "money is the root of every evil"
Faith Anthony
If lives can be bought at the market of greed,
Of what use is the force driving the conscience ?
Humanity has long been lost in a vain pursuit of Power
The protests against all the evil and violation of our soul
Sits inside of us, waiting to tell the truth
Wems Henry Temmy
Plague beautifies the world in deceit
Humans' petals flowered its garden
Many falling petals are mistreat
Received enough support but garden isn't pardon
All to the honor of your pleasure, we forfeited
Faith Anthony
Deception permeates the entire region in a steady order
It is now a clash of Money and Power
And being subdued in fear, She(Africa) had to bow
Pledging allegiance and made to Cower
A soul sold out, defenseless without a 'why'
And silence becomes her only hope
Wems Henry Temmy
Gardners have an awesome merry go round
To watch out others in disguised anticipation
Whereas, their harvest bloom and abound
To the mess of Hunger-20 promotion
A scope of care "stay home" is well propounded
Faith Anthony
An enemy has surely done this!
The gardener suddenly cried
An enemy has sowed tares in the garden
Stay at home is the new Creed
Keep social distance or risk going six feet Below
Wems Henry Temmy
It isn't a prank to joke with for all reasons to insanity
Though it seems they had make workers go days starving denizens
Keeping a lot of grains in store for themselves and their cousins
While this is a threat to humanity
They claim to still cherish the welfare of the citizens
