Put Down Your Weapons!
Put down your weapons...
And the ammunition fed,
To spread your hatred!
On whose souls do you believe,
Are crushed to bleed as you succeed...
In what?
To do what for who and why?
The selling of an advance life...
To live in a living hell to dwell?
To raise more of it as you see fit?
Put down your weapons.
What peace is received by depleting the Earth?
With a mental disease perceiving a self worth.
What is it you think is being achieved?
In an atmosphere of religious differences...
With falsities conceived
To reveal racist contempt!
From misconceived interpretations meant,
To explore your won destruction?
To allow a rise to the top to breathe,
Hollow victories...
That leaves a quality of life left to bleed.
To say there has been 'something' conquered.
Put down your weapons!
Confess your digressions.
Put down your weapons!
At let God restore your mind...
To a peace you say you fight to find.
Put down your weapons.
Or all life once known,
Will be left behind to rot to dust...
From which the Earth it came!
Before your selfishness grew to be shown!
To display your degradations?
Last chance!
PUT
DOWN
YOUR
WEAPONS
Put them down!
And learn from past lessons.
They are all around.
With everyone trying to prove themselves,
The greatest of fools!

Early Works - Understanding
With a little understanding and humility,
this world would be a better place for you and me.
Instead of bullets, bombs and rockets
we’d have love between our neighbours and families.
Instead of death, destruction and misery
we’d have outstretched hands of friendship
from stranger we did not know.
No cause is worth the death of one man
no matter what that cause may be.
For love and understanding
is all anyone ever needs.
When all the bullets and bombs are gone,
what kind of world will be left,
the answer lies within ourselves?
Within our faith and understanding,
we must look at our enemies
try and understand their plight.
Not with weapons of mass destruction,
but with hope and understanding
that they have rights like us,
then maybe one day
we’ll all live under an umbrella
of peace and harmony.
19-20 February 1996

Lay Down Your Arms
Lay down your arms and don't fight! !
For, true love is better than the bullets of war!
Think and reason up!
For, true love is better than the bullets of war!
So, we need to live in peace than fighting each other!
All in the name of who wants to be first.

Rotations
Rotations, ant, at, as, it, is, on, no, root, toot, soot, to, so, art, stain;
The news in the village spread all over like wild fire! !
So watch your lips before you speak,
For, that wasn't my story!
So, come and let me tell you the truth.
Rotations, soon, toast, soar, or, nor, tars, tar, rats, rat, at, arts, saint;
But hatred had led many to throw the bombs onto others! !
Killing them in the name of their so-called teachings,
But, without true-love, there will be no peace on this earth.
Rotations, star, ton, not, ion, ions, rot, set, sort, sit, son, sin, tin, tins, tan;
And like the bomb blast in Abuja-Nigeria killing many! !
But, this act will not bring us peace,
For we need the roses of love than the bullets of war!

The Colours Of Love
The colours of love,
The colours of unity,
The colours of peace,
The colours of humility,
the colours of care,
The colours of passion,
The colours of romance,
The colours of the mind,
The colours of your works,
The colours of mankind;
But, let true love come out from your heart!
For, in peace and unity we have to live on this earth together:
Than, the bullets of war that divides us always! ! !

Tear Drops Of Joy
Tear dropp of joy when a baby is bron
Tear dropp of joy when your mother and father tell you that they love you
Tear dropp of joy when my boyfriend bring me a dozen of roses
Tear dropp of joy when I see two people holding hands
Tear drops of joy when all the family come over for a sunday dinner
and I stand back and watch everyone enjoy every one
A Tear come down with joy.....

Think Before You Act
Say who you are but,
Not what you know;
And think before you act!
Because, violence does not help us,
So, let us live in peace to love one another;
Because, there is no love in war! !
One love, one peace;
One care, one unity;
Let us fix the world together with true love than war!
Change and let us change! !
Yes, for the better;
Than the bullets of wasr and the hatred around,
For, we are all under the sun.

In A Very Dangerous Period
We are now living in a very dangerous period of our history! !
For everywhere around us are the bullets of war than the roses of love;
And you do not know who to trust nowadays in this life,
For hatred had taken over the whole earth!
And mankind walk along in fear.

What is the only provocation that could bring about the use of nuclear weapons? Nuclear weapons. What is the priority target for nuclear weapons? Nuclear weapons. What is the only established defense against nuclear weapons? Nuclear weapons. How do we prevent the use of nuclear weapons? By threatening the use of nuclear weapons. And we can't get rid of nuclear weapons, because of nuclear weapons. The intransigence, it seems, is a function of the weapons themselves.

The Black Devil
Cut your coats according to your size,
And live for joy and for peace in this world;
Because the black devil is always watching you!
And you need to focus on my love towards you to guide you on.
Love and praises,
Peace and roses;
And like the muse of your love in the land of unity;
But try to focus your mind always on peace and love.

Sapphire Bullets Of Pure Love
Pistol shots
Gun shots
Pistol shots
Gun shots
Bullets from a revolver
Bullets from a gun
Bullets through the atmosphere
Here they come
John, Ive been bad
And theyre coming after me
Done someone wrong
And I fear that it was me
Sapphire bullets
Bullets of pure love
Sapphire bullets
Bullets of pure love

Heart And Minf Fight
My mind says,
Stay in the room
My heart says,
See the universe
My mind says,
She has only a body
My heart says,
She has a beautiful soul
My mind says,
Get the degree
My heart says,
Get the knowledge
My mind says,
Kill the neighbor
My heart says,
Love the neighbor
My mind says,
Plunder the entire world
My heart says,
Give to the world
My mind says,
God is not here
My heart says,
God is here
My mind says,
Rule on the earth
My heart says,
Live equal on the earth
My mind says,
Invent new weapons
My heart says,
Keep the peace
My mind says,
He is a small man
My heart says,
He is a big man
My mind says
He is ignorant
My heart says,
He is wise
My mind says,
Live for money
My heart says,
Live in love
My mind says,
He heart you
My heart says,
Forget his mistake
My mind says,
Don’t agree with his opinion
My heart says,
I respect his opinion
My mind says,
You are great poet
My heart says,
You are nothing

Gold
In love,
In spirit,
In faith,
But in peace is the mind which is very healthy.
Gold, god, old, do, dog, go!
But try to keep yourself very pure;
For, i am walking in the snow alone to reach your house.
Your beautiful picture is still hanging up in my room,
Qualified with the love of your muse at peace;
But, we need real love on this earth than the bullets of war! !
Braided hair,
Modest apparel,
Expensive clothing;
But exercise yourself in holiness!
And let your progress be evident to all.

Your Guns And.....
Bring out your guns and throw then away and,
Let us live peacefully on earth without wars! !
For i have spent thirty years starving in my life,
So i know what is called hunger when the world sleeps;
And the peace of my mind needs no bullets.

African Spokesman
I am the African Spokesman and,
I have something for you;
Because, the muse of my African Stew tastes different from yours!
And, it is infused with a special ingredient from the African Soil.
I am the muse that you are reading and,
I am the African Child with my words so sweet! !
And like the love of your mind without the wars around you;
Because, i am always for the peace of this world.
I am the African Spokesman and,
I am presenting the muse of my mind from Africa to educate you;
For, mankind had now made more amumunitions for war!
But, we really don't need them when, we talk about peace on this earth.
Listen and look for peace around you always,
Learn and care for others around you always,
For education is not always about degrees! !
Because, the very professors are the very ones who made these weapons of war.
The African Spokesman is what i am,
Along the streets of Africa and around the hiding places of the ghettoes!
For, i have seen many things in my life and, i have more to tell to you;
But, like the colours of the rainbow,
We need to love each other in the name of the colours that nature gave us.
I am the African Spokesman and,
I have something for you;
But, if you listen very carefully, you will feel the muse of my love around you!
Because, this world is now being captured by the weapons of war than peace.

When Bullets Speak
When bullets speak
It ushers Silence
As all become weak
End of the sentence.
When bullets speak
More blood will flow
There's no Peace to seek
More Wars will grow.
When bullets speak
No one to counter
For the dead are meek
Lie in surrender.

Help Others
He is my father,
She is my mother,
He is my brother,
She is my sister;
But, you are a beautiful lady and,
He is a handsome man.
Life is full of surprises! !
But, there is much hatred in the world today;
However, do all the best that you can to help others.
Don't throw a bomb into the market place and think that you are free!
Because, this very bomb blast will also kill your friends and relatives as well;
But play the beat of love and let me dance! !
For, it is better to live in peace with each other on this earth than the bullets of war.

The Pursuit Of Peace
I want the pursuit of peace to be mine also
Like the other people here on earth have the persuit of peace
And I am also planing to get the most out of the pusuit of peace
Because peace is something that me and everybody else needs here on the Earth and I agree with it a 100% percent
But I believe me and others that live in peace here on earth have a Great life and they will continue to have a great life also

Ideologies of Mankind
Swords and scimitars,
Bullets and bombs,
Bows and arrows! !
And of the invasion of the flourished land;
But the ideologies of mankind had led us to wars than peace.
Black, white and many other colours!
Fighting for human rights in the name of discriminations;
And like the different languages spoken on this earth,
But try to establish your mind with love, unity, peace and care.
