Twisted Lingo
TWISTED LINGI
Long time ago; the old day Africa
When black was the general color
A time when nobody was bilingual
Back when tradition was very pure...
We didn't have a Twisted Lingo
Then Alexander the great surfaced
Newton,Galileo and others made discoveries
The impact became intense,migration began
Survival for the fittest,mutation,intermarriage...colonization
Giving birth to Twisted Lingo
Gone to school but still don't understand some things.
Moon,tool,saloon,cool.took all the same
But what happened to Blood?
I have never gotten it right
I guess this is a twisted Lingo
My teacher told me that Sour,flour,detour sounds like power at the end
But then I remembered Tour
Can someone make me understand
This is a twisted Lingo
Do I need to go back to school?
Who gave birth to language?
Why all these difference?
Where will I get reference?
How will I understand this Twisted Lingo?
