AFTER YESTERDAY

Reflections freeze 

Neighborhood we steeze 

Happiness demanding "teku" stepping up with grease 

In our pockets loaded ringing chilling "gees"

No burden to fall the smiling cheeks 

Parenthood waiting to grip the breeds 

Adulthood is a bitch they hardly preached 

Junior graphic dead, how's Aunty Berty addressing our tweets? 

She never advised Parenting wasn't for the weak

Everything sounded lovey-dovey in the coming weeks

Seemed yesterday's beeps

Today not interested in the tasty grapes 

One-one-one formation is by grace 

One Ghana can't seduce an angry face 

Who knew kenkey lovers will cry for priced maize 

Students concreting the stomach to hold the day 

Agricultural crises we face 

We were told planting for foods was the new phase 

Mu papa num abor bra they say 

Y3 papa num 3nwia sika song we play 

Krom ay3 shi said Wendy Shay 

Captain being smart yet they want to slay 

Exposing corruption of the wicked preys 

It is above our strength he said we need to pray 

Citizens demeanors not gay

Basic amenities they can't pay 

Aban b3 ba aban b3 kor Ghana 3ntumapa 3tisei 

Telling illiterates mubor abeifuor tuu pee

Nananom mang na ay3 sei 

Not practicing the everyday pledge we say 

Our sovereignty cloth had frayed 

Democracy is not the way

Selfish interest will still be traced 

Youths becoming foreign investors 

Glued to the phone refreshing the odds offers 

In the ghettos hearing the funny comments

" Sika eni krom" enti na y33 bor online "canters"

The system rendering many jobless

This is economic martyrs 

Early independence is a regret

Fraudsters claiming for respect 

Nkrumah legacy undermined with some vague research 

Political leaders exhibiting "politrical" sense 

Hangry tommies will die for the power coins

Radioing loud trumpets for appointment quest 

Album laughing images after yesterday,

A total transformation for Kweku Blay 

Remember plants with dormancy traits 

Developmental growth is delayed

A notion government has create 

Our motherland showing nothing in her grays 

We are sorry to say
