A society full of moral decadence, corruption and murder. No respect for disciples of the lord taken as prostitutes in armed conflict.

1. The transfiguration of Africa
(For Wole Soyinka, Nigerian playwright and poet)
Colonization, decolonization and imperialism
What a pathetic situation for Africa
If not of ancestors in office
Driven by prophecies on social media
Corruption, staff dishonesty and murder
Have become a system for growth
Judas, Barabbas and Saul
Are those dancing with Africa
Even their shadows have been taken
Disciples of the Lord are in agony
Because of frustration and terror
Blooming this beautiful continent
Which Mandela and Nkrumah fought for
Some day this Babylonian attitude
Will be erased like Sodom and Gomorrah
Embezzlement money taken as tithes
Go get your own spiritual father
Yes! Am born in the image of the Lord
