The Cry of the People

the cry of the people I remember the day of glory as they stand so truthful with a new political slogan of change I remember the faithful afternoon full of promise of hope while we chant their political names with hopes high I remember how they act like saints when we all ran to the streets to hail our new president elect even the youth walked from Lagos to abuja to show support and love to our hero is a pity now what we see the cry of the people I remember the joy in the heart of the people as they welcome their new president elect I remember you promise a lot I remember you promise to erase poverty out of our land I remember how you boldly took an oath of power to serve and protect your nation I wish your words were real I wish you realised what you standing for I wish our story was changed like you promised but now is a pity the cry of the people I remember how you were every where with your sweet word of improvement yet we are stagnant I remember how we trust you but now we cry in pain I remember you claimed to be for all but now some other tribe is been excluded with intimidation I remember you stood for peace yet our life is scattered in pieces the cry of the people how could we have a non existing president yet we have a President and when we ask for the presence of our president whom was voted in power by our vote we get beaten up. we get killed we get jail terms so I remember the times we trust on this political slogan of change we don't need this change this change of yours mr president is changing us to poverty depression and inflation this changed has changed us to an hungry lion this change has chased us to the street to protest for our right we are tired of your change Mr President yes we are tired of hoping even we need our vote back or no more election in the country that is the cry of the people and the cry of the people is the voice of God
