All Is This World Poem by Gbolagade Taiwo

All Is This World

Rating: 5.0


Your struggle in life
You want to be rich in life
You want to be great in life
You don't want to be left behind
All is this world

You want your pocket to be full
You want to be satisfied with everything
You don't want to lack anything
All is this world

You who take from the sweat of others
Just because you want to be comforted in life
You've turned to a prima-donna
All because you want to live
All is this world

All you who sit on the throne of power
You're using it for the oppression of your subject
You're expected to protect the masses
You've forgotten the begining of the power
All is this world

Remember those who are your predecessor
Where are they today
They have become a thing of history today
The seat is not for long
You too will join the history
All is this world

You who are blessed with good pocket
Why do you keep it to yourself?
Do you ask if it's all for you?
Are you not expected to give it out?
All is this world

We all came with no penny
Give with no worry
All wealth will be left behind
All things will be left untouch
It is what you do that will tell of your work
All is this world.
