Nemesi
The novelty of truth has lost its true meaning
The nobility of man has lost his true being
Human being, you've lost your morality and capacity
But practically death is an eternity from liberty
And life that is part of your wife and a few cents less short of a Rand
But the few take the stand to understand
The great demand of the few who make this continent
Dark or bright, black or white as our society is stuck in the prey
Today we pray for the people that lay
In sorrow, pain and anguish and their fire they burnt bright,
Which is and distinguished
Losing our birthright: religion; culture relinquished
And embellished the truth that is kept from our youth
That society creates; the nemeses and protagonists
Giving us hugs and kisses; blowing us into pieces
Leaving our lives increases
But the true killer is out there let it all be clear
That they are spoiling Africa's tapestry
Killing a living philosophy
Draining society’s sanity
Spreading evil exponentially
This is a mental interaction so do the inspection
Because they might be in your reflection
