it takes gut to break you rainbowA
come sit with me tell me your historyB
-
when God made rain to danceC
made sun to singD
you manned the operaE
on Noah's deck and dove's callF
-
when nature stood stillG
mankind breathed reliefH
-
I tell my story too rootedI
in heat of sun baked earthJ
-
that I bought my money with my moneyB
I voted lion but hyena stole the lumpK
-
will my daughter in Rome weepL
for me or her countryB
-
fate of her future in hostilityB
her generation in disabilityB
for a few corn moreM
-
I run from Sokoto to JerichoA
Japa to JapanN
till Naija runs dryO
