SKYSCRAPERS🗼🏗

 

SKYSCRAPERS

We were known for our failures,

And the world saw nothing but our trailers

We would stake bet,

In order to pay rent

We were our own parents,

Our own neighbours

We had no saviours,

Just our sane tears

The government and its ministers,

Paid no heed to our stress

They framed us,

And hated us for our existence

Their heart was a farm of hatred,

Sold to other traders

This rough life made us sailors,

When we had no soothsayers

Infiltrators

And perpetrators

Even traitors

Stripped us naked

But the Almighty's favours,

Can never be stopped with scissors

Before we could say less,

He had answered our prayers

When we made hay, we made haters,

At the end of the game, we became players

In all these mayhem,

He served us like a waitress

We became the Greatest,

Before we could say yes

A contract with the Lakers,

And strippers for our entertainment

We were the latest,

Like Bob Marley and the Wailers

We knew no fake friends,

‘Cos we were focused on the papers

We were risk takers,

Envisioning vast acres

We might have been labourers,

However, we still laid eggs

When the day ends,

Remember us as legends

Ones who never had it soft like latex,

Ones who measured their sizes like tailors

Skyscrapers,

May rise to the apex

But it all depends on their firm layers,

A concrete of prayers.
