With God,Not Them.
"My case is of God
Not of them in high places
My prayer is of God
Not for them our rulers
As long as I pray to Him
To provide for we of my family
I have no case with them in power".
Lies is it we spread around for all
Deceit hovers around the land
Even with churches and mosque
Built all over the street in our kingdom
Still nothing has changed for good
Even as many mount fire on miracle
And millions get redeemed in deeper life
Thousands nursing fats of them in charge
All on our high ways full of pot-holes
Short-cut to the beyond without visa.
Yet, mediocre echoes "my case is
Not of Men in power but God up tower
Let it soar high, prices of goods
Let it becomes gold, food that we eat
Let it be of diamond, water for we to drink
My God will provide according to His riches".
Oh yes! Oh yes brother! Exactly sister!!
But amidst riches millions die of hunger
With stupendous wealth, many suffers endlessly
Our case is of them, the rulers not of God.
