Hive Open Mic Week 97: Political Games by Lucky Dube Bass cover

This week's topic really got me so deep. people are facing lost everyday. lives and properties are vanishing as time passes by.

The worst of it all is our political games, giving false hope to the people and to the less previliage. Over here, many things are happening, people loosing their jobs, houses and problems on the street.

so, what do u see about political games and bad convenance??... it had done on us that the actions and decisions of political leaders is the effect of what our societies are facing.

imagine a country with no universal education due to political games. imagine us going to school and strike will be keeping students at home. what a lost of time In the name of education.

well, my dear brother late Luky Dube has said it all in his piece. this legend over saw this will befall the people. May God help us.

below is the lyrics of the song. enjoy and stay safe.

How do you feel when you lie?
Straight faced while people cry
How do you feel when you promise something
That you know you'll never do
Giving false hope to the people
Giving false hope to the underpriviledged
Do you really sleep at night?
When you know you're living a lie
To you it is just a job
To the people it hurts to the bone

Ooh political games that they play x 4

What do you say to the orphans?
Of the women and men you sent to war
What do you say to the widows?
Of the men you sent to war
Telling them it is good for the country
When you know it's good for your ego
What a shame.
Do you really sleep at night?
When you know you're living a lie
You talking tough, you talking sincerely
Giving false hope to the infected
Giving false hope to the affected.
To you it is just a job
To the people it hurts to the bone.

Ooh political games that they play
