innocent soul

selloane mokuwane 1998 (mafikeng)



innocent soul

is always precious
you can cut it with your ways
you hurt it multiple times
force bad things in it
drug it into dark city

make wrong infront of it
turn the world against it
make it less of its own
still it will come out innocent

you can change everyone's heart
change most of the things
even if you can lie better than anyone
innocent soul will be innocent

hire best lawyers of the world
pay bribes all over
waste hard worked earned money
to damage the good it does
kind hearted people suffer most
no matter what innocent is innocent

turn a night into a day
you can wake the dead one's
perform miracles to the world
make people believe in yourself
once more innocent soul is still the same
