Our hopes like water in a basket
Like pilgrim, we end up in a casket
Not even a nickle found in the pocket
Embracing winter,without a jacket
The pot empty, no pudding
Traitors always kept mocking
Society remain treachering
Start up capital,kept us starving
A youth perceiving a hit
Only to know, he cant afford a beat.
Condemnation made him cry
Hopes dropped like French fries
Hope to make that best grade
Financial constraints, pin her to sex trade
Pregnancy, made her a house maid
Lost hope. He can’t cope Bills getting
high,
Divorce making his eyes come alive
Suicide became his drive
But still holding on till he dies
You can’t afford a price tag in the mall
Yearning for latest tech makes you dull
Second cloths you wear to every ball
Lost hope is a mental disease
Never made us feel at ease
But swimming in Satan’s bait
Denying us life living beyond billgate.
Hope is in you It is life.
Take her us wife Don't deny her with knife
And Just keep smiling to the tide.
LOST HOPE. Paapa Esuman Says So!!
