We will create a better life for ourselves!

Don’t talk to me like you are the voice of reason
Yet, you are the antithesis of reason
You stand on the podiums
Reciting the history of the struggle
Which you claim you also taught in it to give us better life
For the struggle has ended
For us the struggle has commenced against you.
Because you are the hindrance to our progress
You want us to sacrifice as our ancestors and parents did
Like during the Langa and Sharpville day
Like during the Soweto youth uprising of June, 16, 1976
Like during consumer boycots, azikhwela in the 80’s and 90’ and rolling mass action.
You want us to remember history that has changed South Africa
You are actually happy that it is over
Because you live comfortably and has elevated yourself above everyone
Now, you accumulate wealth at the expense of the suffering masses
 You justify your created status and applaud poverty
You insult UBUNTU and its values
You continuously cash in on the poverty and misery of the masses
And you think we should
We will not rest ‘till we create a better life for ourselves
