In all my life i have tried to come up with a theme song you could all relate to.
In all my life i have spent sleepless nights trying to find a catch-phrase,you could all remember in case tomorrow am gone.
I look way up in the sky trying to connect with the stars.
I looked to the sky and expected a superhero to sky dive and come with help to end poverty in AFRICA,since babies are making babies,while the government is making millions,growing bellies by the minute.
Today we watch vultures sing our songs and kids selling their souls so that they may be kings.
The society has told us to mind our looks and drown ourselves in books,
but philosophy and theories have only raised our hopes high,telling us it was to free our minds.
To my surprise we have not yet got the cure for AIDS or managed to stop wars around us.
Instead we have killed our moral values with the right hand and passed a sympathetic sarcastic comments with our left hand,,,,,HYPOCRITE.
TIME TO HEAL THE SOCIETY,SUPERHEROES DO NOT SKY DIVE.
I AM THAT SUPERHERO IN A FORBIDDEN LAND
SOCIAL PROTEST,SOCIAL GRIEF
