Tearing us apart
yet we are part
Of this place on earth
This vast black continent
The place we call home
Where we’ve sheltered every storm
Our place of origin and fame
Where everyday we yearn to reclaim
Restore it to tits original state
Rallying the youth and the 4th estate
To collectively take responsibility
To restore our lost dignity
That we should all rise and hold
Our hands together
Make moves so bold
To liberate our country
From today’s colonialists
Who use our resources
For their selfish interests
Divide us along our tribes
While we suffer unemployment
And we have to give bribes
Selfish leaders who,
Alone want to remain rich
While poverty drags us all down to the ditch
With a staggering economy
And a huge public debt
Endless strikes due to poor payment
Poor state of our public hospitals
Surviving in constantly expanding slums
While they live in lavish residentials
People dying of hunger
While they traverse the country
In the hunt for numbers
All in the name of voter mobilization
Bleed no more for them to lead
Heed this call dear Kenyans I plead
Let’s sow in our hearts love’s seed
That we live together in peace and unity
Love one another as brothers and sisters
Let’s live by the words of our national anthem
Uphold the values of nationalism
Stand to defend our beloved country
Build our motherland!
