We All Have a Blame
We all have a blame
Were are the youth of Africa
Were are the youths of the world
Come up here gather together
This is the time to figure out
Yes there is alot question with why
I can say the answer with out you out there
I remember that the last time I checked
That the elders still say we are
The future leaders of tomorrow
Considering the numbers of leaders
From the time past till now
This adage sim to be no reality in Africa
Quote me wrong Nigerian youths
Cos numbers never lie
Either does histories
So I wonder are we still meant to be
What we are today
We all have a blame
Stop pointing fingers
And start from yourself
You are not too old to wake up
The time for slumber is old
The young need to grow
So rise your flag of courage so high
And search for your survival
You cant find it in your comfort zone
Either does it come by blames
The age of creativity is now
The era of zombies are gone
African youth arise oh arise
Arise for the sun is out
The night is over
We are in charge
Yes we can
Take no blames
Take no excuses
And let's for once start
A new world
Tribute to my fellow
Nigerian youths
And to all responsible youth worldwide
Richard Nnoli
