Dirt poor, low life lackey,
The son of nobody,
Gutter rat, poverty hugger,
Hardly a warm meal to eat;
But blessed by fate,
With power to stir minds,
Wielding instruments of revolution,
The gates of authority swing open;
Carried on the shoulder of the impoverished,
Feet washed in their blood,
Backed by their relentless hope,
And annointed by their faith;
Alas! Comrade turned traitor,
Refusing to yield the people's mandate,
Trampling on the same spirits,
That oiled your rise to prominence.
Many freedom fighters later become freedom killer's when they taste the perks of power and become drunk in its corruption.
