The Two Brothers, Lemmy and Remi

There were two of them
Lemmy and Remmy...
Two leaders born 
Born of destiny

The weight of government 
Must rest on the shoulders 
Of Lemmy and Remmi 
Israe-el and Leki

One king the other kingsman
One immortalized one mortal

There is no telling them apart but
Leki has a scar on his back.. yet
Others claim Israe-el has a scar too

When mama called out to Israe-el
He faced his mama who realized
The folly for faced her Leki...

A heated exchange outside the mall
Israe-el has Leki vexed..
And now its an all out war..
Israel tries to use the katana 
fails to wield it in its full power

Leki takes the sword lifts it, it thunders
And katana glint of silver comes alive
Down Israe-el... brevity in moment
Then Leki realizes what he has done

DADDY!! DADDY!!! screams Leki
I  have killed my bro .. DADDY!!!!

A slight rain covers the land..
Leki sobbing uncontrollably
A slight stir did i see, did i..
He is alive Leki!!... He lives

Far be it from you Leki
To ever put out the lantern
For in Israe-el is the lantern

The sword of Israe-el now
Belongs in the custody
The custodians seers 

Leki you realized katana..
Katana glint of silver 
You are extra powerful
Shouldn't be held lightly

Remmy  na Lemmy 
Abuja doesn't feed on manna..
That why the boom and boom
Is alive boom boom are drums

Drums of war for Lemmy doesn't
Doesn't live on manna... ABUJA
