The YADA piece

This spoken word piece was inspired by YADA. Hope y'all like it.

My heart aint at rest with my generation,
Plenty talk, plenty condemnation,
From our leaders are bad and corrupt,
To our system is lame and disrupt.
Like the Jews we await a messiah,
And then boom! Abracadabra,
All our problems will go away.
(Laughs)
Look into the mirror, there is Nigeria's messiah,
If this generation won't learn from the mistakes of our heroes (coughs) past,
Then this generation might just be the last.
My people, Nigeria, perish for lack of knowledge,
You think I am lying check the elite class.
The beggars are riding horses and the princes are walking.
Money miss road is the story of the generation before and may remain the same for the generation after.
What are we gonna do?
What is the solution to our problems?
Its time for a new mindset,
A mind set on the right things,
Set on the right principles.
A mind set on the right information,
Set on the right knowledge.
Y.A.D.A- you deserve to know the truth
Y.A.D.A- the truth will set you free
Y.A.D.A- its time to experience the right knowledge
Y.A.D.A- transforming the Nigerian youth from the inside out
YADA- a revolution is coming

Coming soon. The new YADA website
