WEEP NO LONGER AFRICA

WEEP NO LONGER AFRICA

The chirps of birds, the hisses of serpents, the roars of lions always brings to mind the jungles in Africa

Africa is a proud continent

Not only in resources but the protection of the Invisible One

Our Nations have had difficult moments and shared like experiences

Our liberation resulted in the residues of our conquerors lying on the shores of the virgin Atlantic Ocean

We had no time to present their bodies to our ancestors

Their souls were scattered and hidden in caves with no history

Weep no longer Africa

Our liberation was a deception

Being forced to wear the prism spectacles, we signed our own death warrant, our slavery and the burden of debts

We will unremittingly salute our heroes and heroines

Till the Invisible One closes the chapter of the Monde

Weep no longer Africa

This is our time, not only to be excited

But to remove the shackles of hopelessness and perplexity

We rejoice this day

As we bid farewell to the men in gray suit to sail to their own motherland

We will no longer be an apparatus in the laboratory of our trade masters

Our composition of greatness was filtered because we left our contracts in the restroom instead of keeping them on our shelves and reviewing it daily

Weep no longer Africa

At the rising debts infused by the enticing offers from our ‘liberators’

Very shortly we will come out of this cocoon

We will be a great continent again

Where the tears of sorrows, poverty, and hunger will be tears of abundance, breakthroughs, exploits, wealth and influence

Weep no longer Africa

For the Invisible One is rewriting our story to be on the world stage again
