what has happened to our nation
I hear the music in my ear drums of poor souls crying
A teenage Girl pregnant
I hear she dumps a baby in the bush
She throws a baby while the babu cried
The baby cries
A hyena comes ,she thinks its a mother who came to fetch me
The hyena eats the baby while the baby cries
She cries
She cries
Untill she strugles too
So tell me what has happened to our nation
I hear a poor soul of a mother
Crying out loud
Why?
You only hear that she thought we living in a safe world
She comes from a long working day just to find something
To put on her table
She takes the passage as a short cut
Only to hear her screaming loud ,struggling to help herself
Only because she was attacked by her own neighbour son
Stabbed to death
All intestines out
Clothes torned apart
All dreams
That bright future she thought off ,Varnishing,just because of the R500 she worked all day to support her family
WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO OUR NATION
