WE DIE DAILY

She hurriedly wakes up 4am

To start preparing to rush to market

If she does not make enough sales 

There will be nothing to pay bills with

He jumps In front of moving vehicles

Just to collect his due sharp sharp

Although they call him agbero but he no send

If he is not sportive enough, he will lose the job

He works in a cooperate settings

Always wearing suits and tie

Even if the weather is harsh and he's choked

He dare not pull the tie

She walks about hawking on the express

Not minding how dangerous automobiles are

She just have to make a living

Death to her is nothing compared to hunger

The little boy have to try and remain focused in class

He has nothing in his tummy for days now

He looks weak, tired and pale

His bedridden father is a vegetable 

Her school colleagues introduce her to business

Money sent for upkeep is no longer enough

If you can ride stick, you will ride range rover

Aristo plc, shey you no wan be stake holder 

The lecturer has come a long way now

He tries to avoid temptation despite his handsomeness

Still they flock around him like flies

Everyday, he fights internal battles unknown to anyone

Fumes from exhaust fills his nostrils everyday

As he sit always beside the always crowded bus stop

He must fry and sell his akara hustle everyday

Else, his bills pills up 

Their shack is located in an isolated environment

Stagnant water surrounds the vicinity

Mosquito's and bugs are their favorite pet

Even rats loves to model in their presence

He slams his leg on accelerator because of time

His wife wince in intense labour pain beside him

He lost sight of the speedometer and ditch right in front of him

Swerve off the road only to run under a parked trailer
