Freedom Poem by Olorode Olorunleke

firm in my heart i find a wonder grow.
right in my spirit this is set to blow.
bend your heads and start walking with feet in
the air.
that your spirit will not be detach from its house.
this is the joy we have set to give ourselves
while its consequence is laid on us.
not upon infant independence arose the
magnitude secede.
what a madness that's glorified in our blood for
sweet sensation of their greed.
the objectives of our so called heroes the fruits
we now reap even after five decades and seven.
that the glories of our land in innocence daily
ascend to heaven.
why lord have you placed us in the hands of
these slave marshal,
whose brains are stock to their anus with no
knowledge of 'lala toroke ile lonbo'
may the gods of the land destroy everything you
have laboured for,
as you daily place the necklace of wonders on
our neck.
joy will depart from you and your instruments as
you place the blood of our people on your neck.
go to deep dream of repentance that liberation
will dwell in us.
our youths should be giants of renovation and
reconciliation and never assassins.
help help for my head has gone its separate
ways under this rocket.
