|THE SYSTEM|
The system is broken
Our beliefs are shaken
That the future is not certain
The system hasPoliticians are clueless and selfish
But lets face the fact
The system is broken
Our beliefs are shaken
That the future is not certain
The system has lost substance
So we live each day in suspense
I cant even finish the next sentence without letting you know
That people live in despair
Crying that the system is broken beyond repair
They say non-compared, Even the visually impaired can see that the system is broken
Now lets go back to back
Many of us vote not based on policies
That's the fact.
We don't need psychology to tell us that is whack
Honestly, honesty is what we lack
We stood in the sun
We voted
The winner was declared
We disputed, yet we accepted
The winner took all so the opposition don't care
Why do we behave like “wanna-be wallabies”
We repeat the same pattern
Yet, We expect different results
That is insanity.
Now what is the system and who are the people?
The system is the government of the people
By the people and for the people
So if the government is corrupt, then part of the blame should be on the people
Because our leaders are not from space
They are from among we, the people
If so,
Should we fold our arms and sip the cup of apathy because our party did not win?
Should we sit around and sing the chorus of “next time” till the next four years?
Or should we take charge, seek accountability, economic stability and transparency?
Respect to “occupy flagstaff house” and “Red Friday”
But that's not enough, we need to respect our own vote cast that is the fact.
Because that is a major decision for
Better standard of living
Quality access to education
And freedom to information
You see,
Our rash manner of voting should be avoided
Due to the consideration of its implication on the whole nation
So we say Politicians are clueless and selfish
But lets face the fact
Even if they don't mean business, do we pressure them enough?
Let's turn this inequality to be an equation
Holding on to our part of the bargain
By being reasonably demanding
For them to also stick to their part of the bargain
So instead of us waiting for the next election,
Lets take action Because this our nation
Is like a company, we got a part to play
Our little contributions are like an investments
At the end of the day,
We expect great results which will be our dividends
So, would we run at a loss, or would we gain profit?
That is an outstanding question
But it all comes back to us to champion this Endeavour
And occupy GHANA!
