Lockdown Kills the Poor

Lockdown kills the poor The world is changing Who got eyes let them see The poor is slowly dying Their pains are unbearable It use to be hard to survive But now is harder than It use to be How can the poor be this more poorer Alot of job lost Alot of income chattered It like a systematic warfare And it silence kills more Than the virus Lockdown kills the poor How can you lock a hungry man down Without a basic necessities How could the third world feeds It own in this era Before this time Somany can't feed in the third world Somany are out of job Somany are out of the balance Of life And now never bring no good Instead it bleeds the opposite It so sad when the poor is locked With out no help An African youth once said And I quote Richard the hunger virus Kills us more than the covid
