Funeral for Justice

Dear African leaders, hear my burning question

Why does your ear only heed France and America?

They misled you into giving up your lands

They delightfully watch you in your fraternal feud

They possess the power to help out but chose not to

Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon

Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon

Dear African leaders, hear my burning question

Why solely invest in your own kin's learning?

While other children suffer on your watch?

Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon

Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon

I boldly proclaim, whether you agree or oppose

Occupiers are carving up your lands while watch

Gallantly marching all over your resources

Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon

Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon

Dear African leaders, hear my suggestion

If you do this we will all win

Retake control of your resource rich countries

Build them and quit sleeping

Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon

Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon

Dear African leaders, hear my burning question

Why does your ear only heed France and America?

They misled you into giving up your lands

They watch with delight, your fraternal feud

They possess the power to help out but chose not to

Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon

Why is that? When your rights are trodden upon
