Together Apart

In the outrageous cost for loving diversity in our languages, We crave out lovely damage beeping to set off assemblage. For the other days ethnicity rules our own darling land And disobeys the legends' efforts accountable for amalgamated Nigerians' brand. In disarray to mule on major pressure opinion poll sets, As few buy out time to enjoy supposed nation's assets, Of their names for history, referencing future and nature's plights In the solemn cry of citizens tagged "suffering and smiling" Neglecting the best way to tackle hugs, smiles and frights That election brings love of speedy deceits in turns- reconciling... Pains and gains featuring our greys' experimental designs filming hope How silent treachery hang loyalty without wisdom on thin rope! Beyond the reach of staged drum lawfully placed to rescue The absurd fame circumstances bestowed on us abroad like fescue And thus, many gave up on her - the promised land Thinking Jerusalem is just been lucky of good tidings unplanned- Grows sacred historical concerns worldly moments can't stop talking about Logically, we're making progress been three scores in Niger's roundabout Despite, by chance, in lies, monkey man money snakes share With joy in reserve, craze in warehouse, vociferation- a nightmare
