I always feel like I'm nobody

  They've burst my bubble

  And now, I'm sinking

  Down the vacuum

  It won't let me go down

  Says to blame the laws of physics

  They say you'll kill yourself

  Holding your mama dear

  Your papa ran and he left

  He's sitting there on the chair, watching the static

  A beer would suit in, but blame religion

  Your egbon says she loves you

  Your brother says so too

  They've got their share of running curses

  A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

  That they've given and you too

  You've been running for a home

  When you burnt the old one down

  A misplaced soul

  Signs of a foolish kid

  A lad with black limo will come calling you

  To your fairy tale land

  He'll take you away

  Trafficked, you'll be

  With you and your imagination

  Foolish kids

  Jumping and bunking

  Days with your girls

  Now, everybody's left to grow

  The only thing that has for you

  Be the vine on your neck grew

  Erase me

  And let me sink

  Olumide.

  Oluwa ma wa pelu e.

  Prayers that you can't recall after days you've made them meshed up in your ears. Can't even decipher the writing on the wall. You'll soon be pushed to your doom.

  My child.

  'I can't cry no more.'
