Black Bottom Biafra
A child is born in the heart of Biafra in the midst of a war-torn, hungry, and poor world. A difficult existence and a heartless fate even just getting through the gruel every day is a struggle.

We all saw the lousy fearful storm, Up the sky of our newborn town, Everyone thought it’s a summer’s dawn, Where there couldn’t be heavy rain nor storm; We closed our ears to the weeping sky, Even when the cloud was right in our eyes, The suffering sky kept yelling in pain, But all its calls were left in vain; The cloud was...

Biafra the Rising Sun
How long shall I be in babylon and sing a song of hope and weariness? Whence my heart perishes in servitude, I have been debased to infra dig in a vast land we call our own. They seek my basket, They seek my soul. I seek my future, The restoration of my being! Biafra the rising sun, Unshaken as the waters Return in the...

Biafra: 1967 In 2017
I smell a darker age I fear a fiercer rage the conflagration will begin a new page in the history of a country once named. More 'saints' would die birds of bullets would fly and there'll be no barricades to hide, nature will cry! Have you long forgotten the excruciating pains of 1967? Art thou diagnosed with dementia of how our streets were soaked with the placentas...

In your blood we are birth, In you we shall die like sons, When the wind shall call of A global village; you'll stand. Of a truth your erotic voice is The envy of many nations. Before the night cut's heal and The day's tears squeaks wellness, Our broad smile shall remain here When the sunful eyes of nature jiggles somewhere of joyful birth, Thousands...
