SO MANY QUESTIONS
Why so many questions,
I'm not a library,
They keep asking and I get
pissed,
"Why you have allergy,
Why you have piles,
Why you have arthritis, you
still young for that",
I’m I God?
Why so many questions,
All this illness never
bought them at Shoprite,
Never did pick and choose,
Why don't you ask the same Shoprite
that sponsor you daily where did I get it,
Ask why gluten,
Why tin stuff,
Why injected chicken,
The answer shall come out,
“Angithi” the same trolley
we push every month is the one we digging our own grave with,
“Angithi” we promote ne
status,
Watch me I'm living the
legendary life,
They won't tell you they are
in business,
I'm a chosen one,
These days, I'm a vegetarian
I want to graduate and be a vegan,
Can't keep eating poisonous
food,
Toxic, Carbonated, Fluoride,
The tap water I was busy
drinking while growing,
Damn I'm busy adding fluoride
in my body,
Is this what system is all
about?
I'm in jail,
My brothers and sisters
please don't ask me questions
I also don't have an answer
but what I know is that I'm a chosen one.
If this is hard for you to
digest
ask granny if she still
alive she will tell” ngephapha lesintu elali ganwa”
not this fong Kong's we eat
and get fat like elephants,
Associated with their uncle
diabetes, Aunt high blood,
Dad gout, mother heart
attack the list is unlimited,
You just don't pick it!
But you are what you eat; if
you eat “kota” you will be a “kota” too,
If you eat fat cakes you
will be a fat cake too,
Call me 5 years from now I’ll
be a dietician or a health inspector
if you just can't swallow
what I write now,
For more info dial “072......”
I started living the life,
who's next,
If you don't trust me keep
your comments
I'm the evidence hospital is
my second home now.
