Infected Minds

Hatred walking tall in the streets 
of the hearts of our 
GENERATIONS
Blood spilled painting the 
ground red
Making the evil not to feel bad 
but as VIPs Phela they now are 
walking on the red carpet
The cries shed turning into 
the welcoming melody as 
they enter the gates of hell
Drowning the happiness of this
world into a very deep well

The money gave birth to 
uMUVHANGO
That constructed hell on earth
The burning flames of 
greediness
burnt families down to ashes
when death knocks at your door
it breaks down all the latches
It doesn't matter which rout it 
took
it can come via your relatives
your blood can one day be a 
catalyst
to speed up the witchcraft 
reaction
as to give birth to wealthiness

I feel THE NEED to set free my 
fears
and let them walk tall in the 
streets 
of your minds with flyers 
proposing unity
Let's all stand up in search of 
dignity
How I long to live life vividly
In your heart as hatred intrude
on your knees fall like you just
had a heart attack but in your 
prayers
Include also the victims in his 
list

The soil swallowed the souls
of THE YOUNG AND THE 
RESTLESS
The brave ones that stood up, 
ducked and sucked bullets 
Into their bodies for our 
freedom
with nothing but stones in their 
hands
The freedom implanted laziness
and greediness in today's youth
we are not xerophytes, 
we can't survive in this dry land 
we need to fight

your journey has brought you 
into
this very dark life you are in
Wake up your mind, open up 
your eyes
there is hell and there is heaven
you are at the junction, make 
yur choice
The right choice will give you 
honor
But the wrong turn leads you to 
horror
