Like an offlight to a rhapsody
The masses were shedding over subsidy
Strangulating the necks of the needy
A celebration of land mark by the greedy!
What a pity!
A deluge of blood filled the city
In the process of driving home the masses hope
Ubiquitous death won their promising souls
I feel this pain in my marrow
A ravaging despair coupled with sorrow
What can the downtrodden do in the midst of fear
Except to fill the cup with hot tears
A cry for the unsung
Chanting a melody of elegiac songs
For the helpless beats who succumbed to cease
May their souls rest in perfect peace
