.
Welcome to Kenya,
Where prisons make criminals more than not.
Where justice is read off papers na sio za constitution.
Where economy is simply taking money from one class to feed another one.
Where,
If the phonetics of our surnames don't click then bullets may,
Where,
Sheria ina mkono mrefu,
Uliza waswahili maanake.
Where,
Imebidi nifungue roho,
Kabla waifunge.
Where,
People die natural deaths because they saw things or heard things...
Where,
Democracy is simply a dictatorship of the elite.
Where,
In Nick Cannon's words 
Election is simply choosing which gun you wanna shoot yourself with.
Welcome to the country where independence was simply a switch of the yoke.
Same old slave.
Just a different master.
Same old cries.
But really,does it matter?
