Where Is the Conscience of the World

Were is the conscience of the world
The world should rise 
And embrace peace 
We are tired of dying
We are tired of oppression
We are not giving up our land 
We are ready to defend our 
Our dignity 
It does not matter 
How tired we get 
Our freedom is our goal 
And I call on the world
To set us free 


Were is the conscience of the world
UK left European Union
With out no blood shed 
So was cesko Slovakia too
Now called Czech Republic 
Why can't Biafra be shame 
Why must my people die 
Just to be free 
Why must the young be brutalised
On daily bases 
Just because they stood their ground 
Why can't they leave us alone 
Why can't we separate with out 
Been ignored to death 
So I call on the world 
There is a silent genocide
Going on in East Nigeria 
Is obvious but ignored 
by the higher rankees
It clear but unknown
Will the world keep watching
Us die for nothing 
How long will the world 
Keep watching genocide like a movie
Were is the conscience of the world
