Economic Freedom Fighters

The vibrant force
Always stands for the righteousness
Though they might be threatened still go for it nonetheless
Freedom and economic impact is the priority

The radical, leftist, anticapitalist and anti-imperialist movement
The spirit of God's holiness has fallen down in Africa
Politically anchored by grassroots' formations and struggles

Let the praises be unto you
You definitely deserve them undoubtedly
Welcome them with your hands widely
Let the sun rise for you
Let the opponents be frightened
I take a bow for you
Power to economic freedom fighters

Red is not just any colour
But a warning to perpetrators
A symbol of actions about to be revealed
A way of sending message of being fearless
A way of showing that they are dangerous
Not to mention that they are rigid and courageous
And that they are ready for anything

The battle defendents
The fight resilients
Fighting against corruption and discrimination
The strongest of them all
The weapon used to destroy inequality
You are the voice of humanity

The enriched youngsters' minds
Seeking for consistency association
To defy injustice and unjust laws
Regardless of the hearsays flaws
The movement is ongoing process
Until when the fight is won

You're not just the fighters but swayers,
In the nation of black people

Peace Is Better Than War

I prayed for peace
No prayers were heard
I wondered if God existed
Their hands turned red
Lots of blood on the ground
I wondered whose blood was
The world of today is rumbustious
Their behavior is quiet obvious
It's every humans' right to do as they "please"
Who am I to restrict them from satisfaction of their desires?
 My hands are trussed

We are lost with no direction like a wind
We are at the deepest point
Of which we can't simply make a knot
For us to never get misled
By our cold hearts that are devious
Unable to forgive each other  and bury the hatchet
We have buried ourselves inside
Inside we are dying with regret,outside we care less

We live to set an example,be aware of the actions
We need peace within ourselves
The blood shed is enough
We still need to live altogether
Be peaceful like a dove,find peace planetary

I'M No One

I got no one by my side
I'm just leaning on the tree
Not on anyone's shoulder
When will this be overcame
I got no strength to fight
Nothing I do is ever right

I was shattered, I became a beggar
I was dying inside but a bit stalwart outside
I found myself just like that, with my body swaying
Roaming around the streets of only God knew
Like a headless chicken
I just found myself just like that
Roaming around the streets
Like a headless chicken
Lost with no direction
Crying for help that no one wasn't adamant to do
Being helpless and powerless
With an empty stomach
People gazing at me and just watch
My frowny face
With their eyes only seeing a passerby
Who abandoned her own family seeking for their fortune material
Little did they assume
Not knowing accurate impaction of my laminations
That I even gave up kneeling and praying for change
I made peace with the fact that it's not worth fighting for
This sufferings is aimed for a worthwhile
Having the fighting spirit is purely futile
