OUR FLAG SPEAKS BLOODSHED
By Ayomide Lasisi
Cruel men perpetrating injustice
Souls filled with hatred
No love in heart
Men like demons
Killers of saints
We cry but you turn deaf ears
We shout but no yielding
Bloodshed caused by immorality
You say you come to serve us
But your rule says injustice
We are tired
Wanting to be free from you
Our youths desire to get an end to you
We protest
Day and night no rest
But your doing is to end lives
The innocent not spared
Our flag speaks bloodshed
Blood flowing like spring water
Our leaders sitting on hills
No voice they hear
We desire a nation
Nation free from injustice
Free from bad rule
And one where our voices are heard.
