Of The Unwanted Martyr
Justifying a thief
Looking for a Redeemer
Yet selling one's soul for bargain
Sale of one's conscience
Giving room for imprisonment
Doing away with the inconvenient truth
A line-up of forgotten heritage
Accepting the long spoon
Cornering the dividends of abandonment
Losing one's entitlement
Giving betrayal a new name
Crowning loyalists king of the land
Upholding truth
A forgotten culture
Making lies their way of life
Truth at the cross
Dying for it's belief
A martyr no one wants
Written by Tosan Oluwakemi Thompson
