In Africa It Is Drug Resistant
In Africa it is drug resistant
it is a disease infecting minds
minds of opportunists it targets
but I know only its nick- name
If you treat it with law-drugs
the will-drug you inject in veins
you try antibiotic treatment tabs
it hides and sleeps in blood cells
Opportunists desire to fall sick
but the people yell and kick dust
the more they search for the cure
the greater the frustration and pain
What can Africans do but look on,
as the epidemic resists medicines?
