Pius Didier - A Senior Citizen

Today is our day
a day that succeeds yesterday
the day of the African man
that entails of the forbidden triumph
and unveils this that they did to us
living the generation arena
to tell those tales of Tina Turna
this day our day
we are the senior citizens

Today is our day
the day we celebrate everyday
living each moment at a time
our thoughts moving in a rhyme
remember when we were called to surrender
with their roar loud than that of lion
we teased and greased in rebellion
till today when we felt the trauma
to join and applause in caccapuo
we are the senior citizens

Today is our day
when we joins to focus miles away
as our smiles fades in a shuffle
analysing what's in our minutes
for we've laid an impermeable foundation
even as we join the dead
this day today our day
it shall be a great day
for we are the senior citizens

appreciating the good work of our African patriots who fought for our freedom.

Pius Didier
