Let GOD himself thumbprint for us
Let him pour down voting papers into our faith
Let our faith build houses in the ballot boxes
For our glaucomatous sights won't see the messiah in the posters
On our cracked walls they smile
Their ironical smiles
Most of them have strange gods in their heads
Let GOD himself thumbprint for us
For this starvation is not outlined on the paper of their spirits
The hunger of indepence remains in our boiled mouths
They said "we are free"
Our dreams know we are prisoners
Let GOD himself thumbprint for us
For the candidates.
Don't let it be a "Do or die game"
"Se abi ku"
With all seriousness to be on the throne
To recieve crown of leadership
To control with mantle
For peace is what we need
As the world join me in writing this elergic poem
Together we weep and cry bitterly
Our tears taste tasty and sweet like my mom's bitter leaf
Let GOD himself thumbprint for us
Staring at the moon won't stop the day from coming
Let's hope.

The interview of this great man dey come so so stay tuned.
