Someone Should Have Told Me On Time
some one should have told me
On time
With all this ignorance shared
With all this wars all over places
With all this shows of power right
In front of our eyes
With all this destructions of countries
With all this killings of innocent humans
With all this fire burning in places
Before and most worst now
I feel so disappointed of mankind
Oh no
Someone should have told me
Before I was born
Oh no
Someone should have told me on
Time
Someone should have told me on time
I feel so disappointed with mankind
Of my generation
I feel so disappointed of my politicians
Oh what a shame
Why someone never let me know
Life is this disgraceful
I should have known
I deserve to have known
For what I see now on the third world We don't deserve
As well in the whole world
Oh no
Someone should have told me
Before I was born
Oh no
Someone should have told me on time
Someone should have told me on time
Someone should have told me
That this world so beautiful
Will be turn ugly
Someone should have let me know that even my best friend could become my worst enemy
Someone should have told me that
Brother will kill his own fellow brother
Sister killing it own fellow sisters
Someone should have told me
That I will be let down by my leaders in Africa and beyond
Oh no
Someone should have told me
Before I was born
Oh no
Someone should have told me
On time
Someone should have told me on time
I thought I was free with religion
Yet it like a genesis of an unknown
Till I receive a revelation
So now I reveal this words of change
What it profit us I ask
If we are not of love
Someone should have stood up
Before I was born
I heard the few that did
didn't get far alive
So young so fast they are slain
Someone should have stopped it
Oh no
Someone should have told me
Before I was born
Oh no
Someone should have told me on time
Someone should have told me on time
I deserve to know on time
Why am here
I deserve to know that I am here
So why am I here on planet earth
Some time I look like an alien
With this vision I see
To many I look insane
With this mission I held
To my peace I realise
Am free from confusion
Yet beyond all said and told
I still deserve to know why
The good is not free from this
Old odds till now
I try I live
I live I see
I see I sense
I sense I act
I act I reveal a rare words
As it has been not been easy
Before I was born
So again
I am just another privilege victim
That see to reveal .
