COULDN'T PROTECT YOU

When things fall apart, you have got no control over them

I wish I could protect you, but I didn't know 

When everything turned round, it was too late 

Even when I could be on time, nothing I could do, the bad people had set their trap

And it caught you, I couldn't rescue you, brother I couldn't, I wish I could 

But it was mysterious, unmeasurable and unpredictable 

You went so soon, when you had just grown, your son is now born, your wife is missing you

Things have changed, with me everything is falling without your advise, the gates are locked 

We don't know what we shall tell your son when he is grown, from the grassroots 

Things have changed, your wife has just learned to be strong, from the past years 

Here in pain, memories that can't be created, where were you brother 

Memories without you, imaginations unpicked, unlocked in no period 

Gone! History! What shall we tell him, Son your Dad was innocent 

Son your Dad was an ambitious politician 

Son your Dad took himself to the hospital and died then from their 

Why is it sounding so painful, why is it hard to prove that he died normally 

No! My brother was innocent, come back brother and we fulfill our dreams 

Comeback and we make our Dad great, he calls your name but you don't respond 

Am alone, and things are dieing in my weak hands, at list a voice and I will be lifted 

It's so painful that we never reached the tip together 

Rest in peace my one and no other brother, you left me and our sisters ask for you, where did you go that has taken you long to return

Enough of the cry oh! My God, I couldn't believe.
