They hide behind makeups, grinding in fake smiles, whilst grounding a bittered nose underneath a very happy cream.

Wọ̀ fún kú nìtẹ́ lọ́rùn,
Bíi Kí awá ma tan ara ẹni jẹ kó
Why should smiles be sad?
That will harm the sky at last.

Didn't we listened before rocking that one in zero?

Did we?
Did you?

Hu***ng horse you didn't know, that knowledge humped-out before the rain of war settled into the ground.

I thought they were afraid of a piece of pancake, but nay. They saw the fake smile behind the mask and quietly opted out from what seems a temporary peace.

No one, not prophets knew what it might become, but those who knew were patient enough to settle their eyes on their noses, Bí ojú bá kú f'ara balẹ̀ árí'mú.

More to come because, ọ̀rọ́ kù lẹ́yìn ... Lówe-Lówe lòrọ Draa, ẹ sáà ma bàmi kálọ. 🚶🏾
