Oh True Freedom- Come Soon
Far away from the truth;
People wish to be the new Ruth
That is ever relevant in all spheres
But to simple law of the land, none adheres.
They are the best freedom fighters of all time,
That had our days saved from tyrants.
Meanwhile, to the best disguised prime,
They keep tormenting us been democrats.
The law is duly enforced on the ruled
But the rulers are under immunity.
We've no doubt been fooled.
That after their tenures in offices, they still got gut to preach unity
For all and sundry through subgroup leaders
Who knows how to canvas their people
In total obedience to their cheerleaders
And cement oneness in the minds of the rabble.
To take from us again our mandates
With sugarcoating words and money.
Oh! When shall we adjudicate?
To make democracy runny!
