Your Majesty
Your Majesty, we do not grovel at the feet of mortals.
Frankly, you do not deserve genuine respect.
We honour you with our lips, but not from the heart.
Your treasury and museums are full of stolen property.
We have no regard for you and your royal family,
For you are descendants of thieves and murderers.
Our people suffered at the hands of your ancestors.
Your wealth is a legacy from wicked plunderers.
The blood of our forefathers cries out for retribution.
Your aristocracy and nobility are like a cat’s puke.
The crown you wear and your throne are mere emptiness.
You are a monarch without decency and integrity.
Why do you flaunt your luxurious place of dwelling?
Your royal palace is just a grand whorehouse.
We do not fear kings, and we will never bow to you.
You scorn the poor because you were born into riches.
Moreover, you follow the examples of your ancestors.
Every day you relish in the luxury of dishonest gains.
You possess many things that do not rightly belong to you.
How did you acquire artefacts, gold, and diamonds?
You undoubtedly know the dark history of your people.
Does your conscience not bother you, Your Majesty?
We condemn the exploitation of our motherland.
Give back what your ancestors stole from Africa.
