The Shakahola Massacre

Be Not Afraid 
When God Says so
everything is  permitted
The genocide on screens 
was sanctioned from heaven 
800 acres 800 graves
In the name of God 
Their Journey was hastened 
The heavens were opened
"I saw visions of God."
Ezekiel was preaching

Be not Afraid 
The Government has faith 
The chief was ordained 
His cup was brimming 
A  man Of God
His blessings revealing  
Death permits signed 
The Heaven Resort was booming
The word of the Lord came to Ezekiel 
There the hand of the Lord was dirty 
The Gospel of McKenzie

Be not Afraid 
The Politicians are cracking 
The politics politicking 
The God Of Israel fighting for Kenya
The God of Kenyans  sacrificed for favour
The house of God is a Morgue
DP said it is something small
800 Dead, It's no big deal
The dead are home 
Each one went straight ahead
Wherever The spirit Goes They Go
McKenzie was Mediating 

Be not Afraid 
Shakahola will repeat 
When the systems are broken 
The saviours are needed 
When  St Peter is corrupted 
The devils do sneak In 
When  your God is Imported 
Prosperity is Gospel 
Forget even Christ Lost faith
When the creatures moved
To the appearance of the likeness 
But is easier to forget 
Than pay the price of reality
