The Old Spirit In a Young Mind

The old spirit in a young mind
In Nigeria the youths 
Need their voices heard

Cos this new generation 
Of Africa youth are 
Relentless

They are young 
But high in creativity

They only need a true support
And it sad that the ones 
To support are busy 
Exploiting Africa 

How long must talents 
Be wasting in the ghetto 

We not born to perish

Their is a new spirit
Of revolt in our new generation today 
Is not a lie
The youth are not 
what the older youth
Use to be 
Africa is ready
