Listen While This Dog Bark
Hurray it's dark!!!
Muses gathering focus like racers on mark
Pains and anger of getting stabbed in back
Causing persistent pant as if it was an attack
Yes it was, Listen while this dog bark!
Feet and shoes are for those who have legs
Àkànó had a pair for years
Treasuring these beauties without no negs
Eschewed latest brands to show he cares
Yes he cared, but listen while this dog bark!
He managed to wear them only to parties
They make him glow, matured and responsible
He got fond of them and muted on his indoor worries,
That a reconstruction scheme seemed sensible
Sensible it was, just listen while this dog bark
Little did he know that small shoe injure feet
Amendment wasn't the quick fix
Neither could he cut his feet to this size of this shoe
Secrecy and smoke in bizarre mix
Bizarre mix it was, listen while this dog bark
An ordinary shoe got Àkànó schooled
To keep a brand and not a shoe
Till his feet maintains stability
Only then can he pick his favourite shoe
Listen while this dog bark
When the disagreement of fitness emanated
He became bare footed
His feet made enemies with the ground
He couldn't move as if he was banned
I hope you listen while this dog bark
