TRADE BY BONFACE

We bought the expensive dreams 

Not with cash but we traded out future 

Our lives was put on line 

We didn’t care what others said

The symbol was for the Kenyan person

They call us wenye mapato madogo

In fact I voted for this same MCA  in langas ward 

I defended him at first 

Then the rain began at first it was easy 

But the storms came 

The wind blew and everything was exposed every lie was exposed 

He was ruled langas ward for 

Two decades 

Still we have no street lights 

The swealines leaking every where 

And he says he still wants another five years 

Somethings happens  to open our eyes 

Some happen to close our eyes completely 

And these leaders come from within us

And it reflects  who we are as a people 

We trade our lives and future 

And we as langas ward we are paying dearly 

Another time to trade is here let’s not rush
