Eurocentric world

We are living in a Eurocentric world

And I am a Eurocentric girl

Our souls reduced to matter

No songs

No gatherings

No harmony

Just chatter chatter

I've seen Families behind locked doors

And Teenagers wanting more and more

I've seen parents not knowing what to believe

And Baptising their children whilst rejecting Adam and Eve

In this matrix Celebrities are the lords

Waxed in Madam tussauds

Did you know that human zoos existed in Europe

Where brown people were put in cages right beside the birds

And when questioned that that is wrong the answer is masked in words

Where new zoos exist now

The bars not thin

The only difference is the cages are within

Locked behind picked fences

No amount of fancy resorts

Or Material possessions

Can take the place of human senses

As the Tyrants lead and the homeless bleed

See I have walked these streets

I've seen neglected Children lighting fires

I've seen orphans weep

And heard lonely people cry themselves to sleep

Ive seen single mothers sell themselves

And ministers from Eritrea staking shelves

I've seen spinsters give up

And businessmen choke up

I've seen them mock our Prophets to fill our pockets

Enjoying this life as if it were a playground

Tourist resorts built on lands lost not found

Where's doggie beauty parlours

Take over bookstores

where cages birds raw and fish in fish bowls never reach the shore

Where people change their names

To play the game

Where those who are eager to work will never eat in dining halls

The glass ceiling is made of shards

And peaceful protests are surrounded by guards

We are living in a Eurocentric world

And I longer want to be a Eurocentric girl
