Our Brothers Is Our Problem

Our brother is our problem
I told my brothers 
I love them 
I knew I was not lying
Cos I was born to live 
And if I must live 
I must go along in life 
With my kind 
Cos iron sharpens iron 
And that is not a lie 
So I put my trust on those 
I love 
This also is not a crime 
Or is it ??

Our brother is our problem
I use to worry 
Worry about strangers
Before now but 
Now I changed 
Cos I see our brothers 
Turn enemies
I wonder why cos 
They always disagreed
In a good quest 
They no longer believe
In unity despite
They claim to unity us 
Yet there action speaks
Who they are 

Our brothers is our problem
Our needs are heavy 
But the answers are easy 
Yet we are full of needs 
Cos our own kind are 
Sitting on what should 
Be our right 
Strongly disorganising
Our ability to our vision
Powerful killing our dignity
Always imposing with  out
Respect
We have lost our ground 
And that is so sad 
So sad that our problem 
Are our own 
Our very own brothers
Here you see our problems
Are not from strangers 
No not no more cos now 
Our brothers is our problem
