Never Swallow Your Word
Know who you are
Know what to doing
Know the right thing to doing
Determine where you are going
Focus on your doing
Your future is in your hand
Never swallow your word
Trust only yourself
People promise and fail
Believe in them not
Encapsulate to them your difficulty
They wretch whit you beyond your imagination
Encroach upon your time,your way,your day and our life
By telling you to come back latter
Deride you when you left
Never swallow thy word
Go back on your not thus
You are the master of your will
Make no allay of your will
Grope of what you see so high
The bliss of your future so high
Never swallow word
The mind of the people so rest
On the leader they elect
For the fact they trust with their heart
Those are the political elite
Who avowed for the public their agenda and their right
Scheming the country economy the peoples right
Hoarding the country economy aboard
Impoverished brothers and sister in home land
Swallow the oath they made to their land
Boosting the economy of white land
With their **** at home their head aboard
They let their will to govern them
With the selfish interest they have
Never swallow your word
You that are congenial with them
In a way or the other
Promise and never fulfil
And restricted your rightful did
You have swallowed you word
Never swallow your word
