.....The Gun
by Rashid Peters, a student of I*EARN Sierra Leone
Can the gun be used as tool to find our daily bread
Can this combination of stick and iron be used to take peoples lives
What is this ordinary working stick that destroys a whole nation
That splits families and make friends separate for ever
It is a friend of a dictator and an enemy of a patriotic citizens
I really dont know weather gun and bomb producers
Enjoyed the money that bought the bomb,
The explosives in the frightful flight
That exploded the 'World Trade Centre',
The Pentagon and in Pensylvania
What about those wrecked many lives in Sierra Leone, Liberia, Sumalia,
Or the terrorist explosions in the Middle East
Oh! in many other nations, not recountable
The hard feeling of knowing my friends and people killed
By people I dont know,
And are greedily wicked in the sale and production
of The Gun.
