Stop South Africa Now

Stop South Africa  now  
The mirror never lie
In your reflection 
Right in front of your eyes
All you see speaks 
that face right in front of your view
Shows who it is you see
So when you look in the 
Mirror 
All you see is you of you

To that king 
Some where in South Africa 
Please look in to the mirror
What you see might make 
You see again 
Remember the mirror don't lie 
After all this words gone wild 
To the minds of hates from you 
To the streets of South Africa
Your face  it speaks 
On the foreigners life's 

To the people of South Africa 
Is good to be your brothers 
Keeper
No injustices in this proverb
So keep back those stones
Oh keep behind all those axe's
Keep away all those bullets and
Guns 
Keep calm and let not your lands
Burn with hate
I thought it already had enough 
Stains of bloods from the times 
Of Mandela 
Oh brother why all this so called 
Xenophobic attack
Oh what a calamity
Sorry I disagree this acts 
For it cross the line of humanity
Oh stop please stop

The mirror never lie 
At the end of the day 
When after you finish 
Killing and destroying 
Then I wonder what 
The mirror tells of that face 
You see right in front of you
If you still have a heart 
You will hear those souls
You slain after you
For the mirror don't lie 
Tell the king I said so!
