Hear the cry of a young boy
In a city running wild
Hear the cry from a mother
Who just lost her only child
Here the cry from a people
Who have nothing more to lose
Everything that they lived for
Have been swallowed up in violence
So now the ask
Wuside peace?
She is not in the house, I have checked
She Is not in the streets, I have searched
She is not in the speeches you will and have been making
Neither is she in the conferences
You have and will be organizing and attending
I have followed her tracks to the top of
Mt Fako, down to the valleys of River Donga
And they told me there
She is not here
For the streets are so empty
Filled with that suspicious silence so rare
I am consumed by fear
So, I wonder so darty
And ask I dare
Wuside Peace?
She is not in a language, I would speak
She is not in the culture, nor in your league
She is not in the government you are blaming
Nor is she in the political parties like they keep saying and affirming
I have knocked at his door
And that of her friends though his enemies ravaged me from within.
Softly killing me with smile and they said
She can't be here
Let me drive you through this history
Down till you understand the story
That sound like mistery
Why Reuben Um Nyobe, Rudolf Duala Manga Bell gave his life
And John Ngu Foncha,Emmanuel Mbela Lifafa Endeley
Solomon Tandong Muna made a strife
Why the spirits of Mwalimo Julius Kamberege Nyerere
Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumah, Mzee Jumo Kenyetta,
Empeor Haile Selassie, Patrice Emry Lumumba,
Nnamdi Azikiwe, Felix Houphet Boigny &
Nelson Rolilahla Madiba Mandela have all risen
In this season with the question
Is this what we gave our life for, please
Make way for peace
My heart rage when I watch mothers mourn their husbands and sons
When I meet another corpse lying on the streets
Lifeless and we all pass and curse not caring in essence
We are becoming heartless
So I ask in reverence
Where is peace
Tell me has she gone out to search for the people's right
Or is the senate in session tonight
Or how has she left us for another far away land so it can reign and rule
Not caring who has the might
Wumeeeeeeeeh
Haven't we had enough
For this road has been so tough
With droplets of bullets or popcorn
We recklessly call now like rain on my roof
Or has she left us now that it's really rough
There she stands and say
Here I am, take my if you may
For you sent me packing
When you decided to reciprocate the hate
And allowed him to treat you with contempt
Even though you were on a first date
Hoping a magic wand will change his ill-fate
You shot me away when you nursed feelings of revenge
And a new page you turned when you decided to go the way of the savage
And the blood of the innocent you took as wage
Instead of reciprocating like a sage
I dwell not in the streets nor in your house
Neither do I dwell in languages and cultures
I dwell where there is Justice, honesty, equality
And respect for humanity
Seek me truly and find me dancing with love
White like a dove
Soaring high and above waiting for you to make a move
Dread my absence for there will be war
And this thing called war?
Old men start it, Young men fight it, no man wins it.
You may think you are doing it for your country
But a very people at the top are those who want it
Where is the glory of the former days?
Why has silence percolated our streets?
Bringing even the innocent to their knees
Where are you, tell me peace
Where humanity reigns over sovereignty
And territorial integrity
There you will find me
