What Has Become of This Nation
What has become of this nation?
Where did Ubuntu spirit go?
Allow me to speak for women
Whose lives are not at peace
because of us men
Whose rights are not respected
Whose dignity is taken for granted
What really has become of this nation
usually called a rainbow nation
What happened to respecting her
when she says to you NO
Where did African good men go
What went wrong Africa
Are we no longer one nation
That used to encourage
the future generation
Rapists we have become
Murderers we have become
No longer are we brothers to our sisters
No longer are we fathers to our daughters
What has become of this nation
Africa arise
Before the whole world dies
Stop this killing
The devil is winning
also gaining
Yet we are losing
Oh God take control
Before we lose it all
Before we all fall
to sin.
Again I ask
What has become of this nation?
