INJUSTICE IN MY CITY
The crime rate in my city
Sapele City to be precise
Most comes from camouflage
Police is your friend
Bail is free
The biggest lie in history
Even when you're not guilty, you still need to pay something.
Where are your papers
You'll think it's your motor papers
But after tendering your papers
They still need another paper
Which is the money
They'll beat you or jail you
Innocently if you don't give them the money.
The police is for
Unity, peace and justice
Yet they disrupt the city
Dividing the people
Apprehending the innocent
Instead of justice
They collect money from the guilty.
There was a time
My youngest sister was defiled
Instead of apprehending the defiler
My youngest sister and my oldest sister
Who was pregnant
Was put under detention.
