Happy Independence

Happy Independence.
But while we make merry, I don't know about you but I am wondering...
Nkrumah fought and won a war against the white man but did he win against his people?
 Is Africa really free?
Is Libya waking up to a natural sounds of the morning ?
Will Ivorian children walk to church in carefree spirits?
Or is our independence totally lost to the greed and tyranny we are doomed with?
Remember the leaders who oppress us and make us rise against eachother cannot thrive without our support.
Don't fall for the promise of singular shine or the indifference of the pain being in another country.
The strange enemy that we must fight stays in the mirror of every house, in our hearts.
The total liberation of Africa begins with one man...you African, YOU!
