TRIPPLE B

Bank,Bottlestore and Businessman.
Zimbabwe my land
Zimbabwe my home
Zimbabwe my roots
Land of our forefathers
Land of my birth
Land of Beast,Beauty and Burdans.
Land of Cricket,Crime and Corruption
Land of Danger,Droughts and Dirty tricks
Land of fame Famine and Fabrication.
Pilaz robbed the Bank,Gwenzi robbed the Bottlestore
Zola robbed the Businessman

Headlines news.....Nooooooo the truth is yet come
Is it B for the Bank
Is it B for the Bottlestore or
Is it B for the Bussnessman....
Perhaps a Barbershop
Is the next allegation followed by Baglary and later a spaza shop*.
Ohhhh dear Zimbabweans you can not find Crime with lies
you cannot combat Crime with Corruption
No lies can stop crime

Land of Disgrace,Dishonesty and Diamonds.
Land of Hunger,Honey and Humiliation
Land of Music,Massacre and Murder.
Land of Police,Propaganda and Prostitution.
Land of Splendour,Slander and Slain.

My underpants pulled down
My privates part exposed
Is this the new Zimbabwe
Is this the rainbow nation

My inteligence is beyond Humiliation
My resilience is beyond mallicious allegation
My spirit can not be broken.
No riddim can take away my dignity
No police force can arrest my talent

Ohh Beloved Zimbabweans the truth is yet to come and the truth shall set me free
The truth is yet to come and the truth shall set me frees
Shall set me free
Shall set me free shall set me free.....
