If

If Black is beauty
We should have the fury
Ready to bless the scary 
And chase away the treason treasury 
To stand all a one unity

If Africa is great
That all true records she ever chest
Are ours; should it be colligate?
A snatch cum valid blood attest
Or be the genuine far away debate
 
If Man is a true clan
Will he submit to condone
And stand in place for his fan
To watch destruction under his pan 
While taking refuge off plan
 
If Woman is a weak vessel 
Should she be overlooked actionable
Clinch to addle 
While we claim no boss; continue to saddle
For all the pleasure pleasing nestle 

If nothing is to be counted upon
Men will make no peace of anyone 
And find only hell a daemon 
But somethings are to count on
Yet killings are all of fun 

If the aftermath results war
Nigeria becomes what we saw
Eating up the law
Burning in insurgency and hatred raw
Have we more to abhor?
