Thief and Rule

Thief to rule
Africa 
We are Like a donkey 
in the rivers of water
Yet we remain so deeply tasty
What is exactly the colour of our problem
Or are we exactly the problem itself
Here come again another new good man 
Yes the perfect thief
The man with the big plans 
The man that knows it all 
The man that can see the future
The man with the solution
The man with large evil heart 
Every season of power 
They roll the dice of our future
How come till now our reality
Remains same same 
What exactly is the colour of our problem
Cos with the reality now
The hand on the horn just want to 
Thief and rule 



Thief and rule
Africa 
Are we better today or 
Were we much better before now 
What made the difference
Has a solution 
We have come to the point 
Of no return 
Now the grounds are shaking
The volume of the rumors of wars are high
The kilometers of our enemies are closer 
They can't lose their survival
Despite we meant nothing to them 
Still they want it all from us
All we've been hoping to survive with 
History has shown who they were before now 
But our greedy brothers are part of them 
They took in charge from our oppressor
They became more brutal with time 
Cos their hands are on the horn 
So all they can do is just to 
Thief and rule
