Dark and Bright

Dark and Bright
Am wrong because am right
Am not good because I support
What is right
Who is good
You who close the fault
Of a fellow with deception
For gains or me
Who have said yes to
Good morals

Dark and Bright
Am bad for not been selfish
Making people see need for
Peace as a light of the society
Am meaningless for not
Throwing stone to the market
But you do to show me
Your godfathers

Dark and Bright
We say no to stealing
But you loot and hide
With power of incumbency
Using gun powders as flavour
Killing ethics in the dark
To chew just men's fate
Brightly truth is light
