Something I can’t explain

Something I can’t explain 
They wonder how I keep writing 
They wonder why I keep asking why 
They see the question marks 
Yet they prefer to judge me 
instead to see my Pains 
I refuse to live in confusion 
Cos my life portrait is full of revelations unexplainable 
There are things that can never change 
Parts of this things are still killing my people in Africa
Part of this things is still destroying the third world 
There is nothing new to say 
The world is open for we all to see 
What do you see my friends 
If you look deeply 
you can see those things that 
Can never change 
A lot of them are not a-line with humanity 
Am not here to preach cos there are 
Somethings I can’t explain 



We live we die 
We come we go 
Time come time go 
No man is an island 
The world is our planet 
Freedom is a human right 
Life is only beautiful with love




Something I can’t explain 
A lot is happening in the world 
We can all see how the world is changing 
Some are catching up 
Some are falling below the race line 
Some are dead already 
Some can’t even move 
We all have a burden to share 
Yes cos when it rains it fall on everyone’s roof 
Our destiny still remain in our hands 
If we could change the things 
That are so long unchangeable 
If we can call back peace to our planet 
It will answer 
If we can call back love it will come 
If we can play fair to one another 
Life can be a heaven for all 
I once said am not here to preach 
The world knows the truth 
cos there are
Something I can’t explain 


We live we die 
We come we go 
Time come time go 
No man is an island 
The world is our planet 
Freedom is a human right 
Life is only beautiful with love
