The People Power

The people power
What is the use of leaders
If the people are not free
 
How is it possible this protests
On the streets everywhere
In our so called third world 

Who is to set who free

From what to what 

How come we must fight 

Fighting just to be free

How is this possible
We are still on same 
Oh Africans

Here you see the value 
Of people unity 
People togetherness
For there is no leader 
With out the people 

Now how is it possible 
We are still not free

The freedom we need 
Lies on our change of now
To unity 
Only till then
We gladly can have
the people power 

For When the power is no
Longer on the hands of few 
The world can truly change 
For then will be 
The people power 
A future change yet not achieved
A part of my dream
As I dreamed
