In Life I See

in life i see  
selfish people 
as the most
 wicked people 
in this world
look around you
 and tell me
 if am lieing
a selfish man 
never care
never have feeling
never have emotion
 for others and
 the worst leaders 
u can have
 is a selfish leaders 
a contry with
 selfish leaders 
is equal to a dead 
or failed contry, 

in life I see
i asked too many question 
why africans have a hard life
why we must fight too hard
to  have basic need of life
while we have all it takes 
to live beyond porverty
so many people 
say to me dont 
even worry or think about it
cos it will always be this
 hard life way and can never change
but i disagree becos 
i see my people 
with a fighting spirit of survival
i see my people
 pushing too close 
to the promise land
but what i dont see
 is a leader 
i mean i dont 
see a moses
to get my people 
out of egpty(poverty)........

in life I see
all i see is selfish leaders
leaders that are 
on a mission without a vission
leaveing the people with confussion
that why u see 
all u see in africa today
also with the underground 
work of the coronal masters
is funny how a blessed continent 
like africa will be the 
laughing stock 
of the so called intelligent human
why on the street of africa
there are more poverty 
than u can ever imagine
i always ask why? 
 also i wonder if there is a true leader without a selfish intrest in africa
why too many cry of the poor in africa
if we have true leaders
i also always ask
why the heartless
 black politicians fail to understand
that the voice of the people 
is the voice of GOD 
why are they so blind to see the dieing talent....(youngblood) 
that can help to improve 
the living standard of africa
is funny cos i see 
 change comeiing soon
is  funny that someone will ask  how? 
my reply to this fellow is simple the egyptians u see today
soon u shall see them no more
a metaphor
simple means that 
in few years to come(no matter how long) the selfish leaders u see today will never exit no more it will be a history to my unborn kids.....
you doubt me then why is change the constant thing in life, GOD BLESS U,GOD BLESS AFRICA, PEACE.
