All Lives Matter
I’ve been in poverty
With no inherited property
One day luck smiled at me
And I begin to wear fine Tee
Changed from iTel to iPhone
Na so SARS begin check my phone
You sure say you no be Yahoo
Big alert dey your phone too
Come along we must go station
Na people like you dey spoil our nation
The thing be like film for Netflix
I close eyes open and station we don reach
You go drop something to go free
I come go on a search spree
Come find a few of my close friends
Wey balance and on me fit spend
The clock tick small they don land
And SARS officials collect the cash
As I dey go home the thing shock me
So for Nigeria we no fit be
Successful with legit biz.
PS: I used pidgin English for this piece. It’s a typical scenario faced by most young successful men in Nigeria at the time of writing; they were tagged Yahoo boys and maltreated by the Force.
