BLACKOUT
BLACKOUT
What’s in a world filled with
insecurities?
Our waterbodies brown like tea
What’s in a world filled with
injustices?
No solution to the helpless citizenry
The nation hard like WASSCE,
Pockets filled with nothing
Situations piling up like electricity
bills,
And nothing to amend this shit
I beg no sympathy
For my dark and lovely
I beg no sympathy
For my misery
But it is what it is,
Her sweet love extinguished
She sacrificed hers for mine,
By standing in the shadow so I could shine
Gave up her last breath,
Without her last words
If anyone here can relate
How it feels to lose a favourite
Save me from this terrible fate,
For it hurts seeing her cold face
Help me stay alive and safe,
Strengthen me with words of faith
Death is venomous than a snake,
Sharper than a fan blade
Death brings disgrace,
It fled home with my wife, Grace
Death disguises in many ways,
Intimidating us like the last days
In a country filled with dum sor,
Nothing is real for sure
Life keeps flickering on and off,
Making our love life difficult
Mine just stepped out of the door,
I am not sure I can live anymore
Blackout,
Love you all
Blackout
Sorry I am gone.
^dum sor= term used in Ghana for power erratic supply
