FREE BOBI WINE


I’ll yell, I’ll scream

As we trek this journey

To a place called freedom

Where oppression shall be oppressed

And freedom shall be freed

 

I’ll borrow my valentine suit

And join the red troops

Armed with nationalistic voices

As we mentor our tormentors

With our constitutional rights

 

I’ll shame the shameless

As we teach the teachers

Of violence and oppression

That when dictatorship is suppressed

Innocent men are not shot dead

 

I’ll yell, I’ll scream

For the people’s voice to be freed

From the night and midday torture

For when a hyena eats from a lion’s prey

No hyena can stand against it
