History

A man who does not know his history Will never know the path to his future A man is no better than a beast If his intelligence does not distinguish him from another creature One thousand years before Hanno came to Africa We lived in Tabulas Ras Our science was not recorded and so was our culture We cared for very little And left to Providence To determine our future Doing very little to develop ourselves We left it for our other brothers Up north And still relied on the ideas and science which they bought History began to creep slowly Through a chain of events And occurrences was not preserved As the events present History of man Will enable him learn His wrong from his right As imperial entities spread From the left to the right As a great power began to spread her imperial wings Which is now widen spreading wide and thin Events in history began to spin Western hegemony dominated the global polity African contribution is a sad apology But is not too late for redemption We can still think And pay more attention to nature And the slightest wink
