Richard Nnoli Poet Rhyme

Gave Me Water

Gave me water 
There is fire on the cities
Oh run run come 
We need a water 
To quench this fire 

    Gave me water 
An Empire on the rise  
Wars their trade mark
Now cities burning 
Fire everywhere 
An identification like their logo 
Where comest our help 
So I need a water 
To quench this fire 

There is fire on the cities 
Oh run run come 
We need a water 
To quench this fire 

Gave me water 
It was a peaceful day 
People moving around normally
All of a sudden people started to run
running away from the rain  
The rain of fire oh I guess 
An empire is on visit 
The rain of fire on top of
The people 
On top of the innocent people
Is like no escape root 
Fire every where 
So I need a water 
To quench this fire 

There is fire on the cities 
Oh Run run come 
We need a water 
To quench this fire 

Gave me water 
The fire of hate 
Keep burning
On too many souls
Now gave me the 
Love water to quench 
This fire 
The fire of materialism keep 
Burning on our civilisation today 
So we need a spiritual  water 
To quench this fire 

There is fire on the cities 
Oh run run come 
We need a water 
to quench this fire 

Gave me water 
Water has no enemy 
We say in Africa 
No matter how much you hate 
You still need water 
So now Your soul need 
A drink of a love water 
From spirituality 
for long 
We are so hot burning in illusion 
For now so hot is the planet 
From this immoral being 
On the hills of there rules 
As they burn cities humans babies
With this fire you see 
Burning everywhere 
Right on front of our view 
So I need a water 
To quench this fire 

There is fire on the cities 
Oh run run come 
We need a water 
To quench this fire
