Water Rises and Falls
The Sun Rises and Sets
Winds Blow and Settle
The Earth Moves and Stills
In all aspect of nature, provision is made for change
And the Human Condition is no different
Time is no different
It is just as susceptible to change
Thus being up today does not guarantee tomorrow
Just as being down today does not dictate tomorrow
We are all born to serve
And we are all born to rule
We will all have our day in the sun
But you should not assume that being in the light today
Means the light will always favor you
The Earth gives the sun no choice in this when it moves
And the sun is forced take a break from your corner of the world
To shine its light on another corner of the world
So, even if the Sun holds its position for a while
Held bound in its fascination with you,
By elemental forces it cannot deny.
Seasons and Time will eventually remind it
That there are other parts of the world that needs its light
And so is darkness also bound to leave.
So why rule, like your rule will never end?
Why oppress, because you can?
Why toy with people, because you have the power?
As Burna Boy says, and I also say,
.Life Na Turn by Turn, Whether you Like or Not
Even your time will end, and someone else will take the throne.
Be wise.
