We were told youths are the leaders
Meant to build the nation tomorrow
But outside of the streets
All I envision is sorrow
Abandoned health care, selfish governance
The masses preyed to political ambiguity
Deemed okay for a child to be homeless
But screams felony when an election is lost
The economy is starving
She is dying slowly in her sleep
Why can't we curb corruption in our system?
How billions of funds are being looted
Who made you gods over us
Did we not voted you into government to serve us?
You must explain why you are killing the youths
Ripping off the future of the unborn youngsters
If we are going to put up with a thousand deaths
To air our grievances to the world
We are determined to lay our lives for a sacrifice
This constant injustice must come to a stop
Our mothers should not be afraid to speak
Of our brothers tired of been molested
An exemplary life for everyone is what we expect
Total reform in governance is what we consent
