Permanent Vanity Card

{For Non-Nigerians}: P.V.C means permanent voter's card, a national identity card eligible Nigerians use in voting during elections.


P.V.C
Permanent Vanity Card

We voted Them in, We're voting Them out
We fixed Their date and time now, we're taking Them out
They sugar quotes only to sugarcoat us, the sugarcoated fur
But as long as We vote, They won't be voted for

Election day is Our judgment day
Let Our votes kill Them, this is how Our judgment slay
Your vote is Your right, don't get it wrong
Our solidarity is Our unity so, let Us sing the same song

Wait!
Do You think every head counted makes the headcount?
Listen!
It is not every countings that makes a count
Some headcount don't even count as a head
You're welcome to My country where votes are sold for a loaf of bread

Your vengeance is no revenge if You think the ballot paper is the pay back
Know that these principalities You're wrestling has won long before way back
That thing You call a voter's card is just a joker card
And if You think that card is king then the ace is only a poker card

How can We choose wisely when a fool has been chosen?
The dream is dead and reality is dozing
We're full of flaws when We're flawless
Verily! We're full of power when we're actually powerless

Election is a period of change but nothing can change this period, not even a sanitary pad
Our rights have been bastardized, a bastard who don't even know His own biological dad
The PVC is our permanent voting identity card
It's all nothing but nothingness, a permanent vanity card...

The saying your voters card is your right is false..
They have violated our right to vote why vote when we know that our vote doesn't count....they now do selection not election.
