Rise above tribe


Tribalism is real,
It’s not a friend to make a deal,
It’s the devil that collects its kill bill,
No one choose his/her tribe by will,
Then let’s not choose a tribe to kill.

I have been a victim, not that I care,
A feeling so rare,
If you haven’t experienced don’t dare,
Nor is it nice to compare,
A neighbour, friend, etc. targeting you by your tribe, that’s not fair.

Mine happened in the dark of nights,
A day before MP Mugabe Were saw his last of lights,
A battle of the weak and might,
The issue being tribe never black and whites,
Better be wrong with a tribe that right.

Friends I grew up with,
Up to now I wish it was just a myth,
Encouraged by the political filth,
To remove guns and pangas from their sheath,
To kill and destroy more than the sharks teeth

I live to preach peace,
To tell that politicians will share your every piece,
You will rest in peace,
On graves that we will lease,
A poor life that none will miss.

A sad story that I hate telling,
A caution to the political following,
We choose peace not as a feeling,
As a right to all Kenyan being,
We can all rise above the standards the politicians are setting,
I am Kenyan first.
