CLARION CALL-Unabridged.

When the rubber meets the road,
And the sling does its swing,
Something is bound to happen
'Cause one must give way to the other,
Or else, both live in harmony .
And because we can't hold back anymore
We gonna say it the way it is,
Call it by its name and its synonym .
They institutionalized the curfew,
and the model of the  African business.
They call us backward,
Just because they stole so much from us!
What's a marathon for,
If there is an early and a late start?
I know this mayn't be popular!
But yes, it made our start poor;
A false start designed as so.
They have denied us the opportunity as it arises!
For not knowing our ways,
They may be forgiven
But to push the divide further,
with a sneer for the race can't be tolerated!
We don't get the tenders now
'cause we ain't have security!
And so our brothers nearer home,
Have borrowed a leaf,
From those invaders of longtime
Ain't sure whether the passion of the patriot still hold
Because to me the centre doesn't hold.
But Someday things will change!
They will change in Kampala,
They will change in Nairobi
I am saying they will change in Washington DC
They will change in the inner sanctrums,
They will change inside the hamlets we live in.
Our sons lifes will no longer be a sacrifice to their gods,
The blood thirsty gods of unbelief.
And our daughters -
Oooh they've been a cheap exchange for the longest time!
Until it wears our hearts NOW.
The clarion call is to Africa.
And its real sons and daughters
From cape to Tunis,
From Nairobi to Marrakkesh
When  will we stop our business!
If only for a day,
And think about the United States Of Africa,
About our  common problems.
About our hopes,
And the derail in between.
About the violations of human rights.
And about the best effort we can put,
And the quintessence we can amplify.
