Jozi

Jozi the New York of Africa
city of Africa filled with all nations
a place for every possibility
known to those that have 
love for no sleep
place where great riots 
has taken place for freedom

Jozi exacerbated by its danger
with streets filled with life 
and great consumerism 
appreciated by all Africans
a place so dark during the day
filled with so  much light in the night

what happen to the class Jozi?
now you filled with dirty 
like the inner city beggar
in your own streets
oh fellow Africans,
what have we done to
this city that was once awesome?

though you still retain your greatness
through your prestige places
like Sandton new city
redefining what you once had
which is glamour and sparkle
oh great African capital
you are a legend explored
by the world and its dwellers

oh Jozi rainbow city
alive at night and with its roars
in daylight with gunshots like
fireworks in the new year eve
Jozi city of lights and liberty
and entertainer of the free spirits
Jozi maboneng!
