Dear God in your heaven take away this endless pain
The bitter memories that is becoming nightmares again
...
Speak of poverty, they made example of you
Shrinking shoulder pads of our tribesmen like that from the zoo.

The Ebola Orphan ‘s Prayer
Dear God in your heaven take away this endless pain
The bitter memories that is becoming nightmares again
A day without your family is bad but without food is worse
Abused and bashed for a disease I didn't curse
‘Welcome to our world the new street king'
As the mosquitoes bites and the flies sing
Reminding me the pleasure of my yesterday‘s pillow
This table my bed, in prayer a hallow
Give me a grandma that will sing me sweet lullaby
And wrap me in her lappa as the wind blows by
A grandpa who teaches me what is love
And help to search for my little lost dove
Give a mother who will tell me a story
Of brave men of war who returns with glory
Give me a father who will wipe away my sorrow
And promise me of a better tomorrow
An uncle who will show me care
In times of trial and in my deepest despair
Give me an aunt who will feed me palm oil with garri
In those moments when I'm hungry
Give me a brother who will help me fly my kite
In those moments when I mount it but don't get it right
Give me a sister who will scold me to school
When I am wrapped in bed feeling December's cool
Give me another Doctor Khan who will be my hero
When I am in doubt and motivation is Zero
if you don't grow from BIG, BETTER BEST ask yourself what went wrong
