BUHARIST: THE DEFINITION

...by Poetic Tee "Here, take a sip"

I'm a Buharist to the core
Not because he's faultless
Nor because he's blameless
But because he's only human
Not close to perfect, err bound
Yet, that doesn't affect my stand
To proudly identify as his Nigeriana.

I'm a Buharist to the core
Been to the precipice of hell
Cliff hanged on edge of heaven
Saw a red river flowing east to west
Thousands swimming against its tide
As tears tear thru my conscious conscience
Making me believe in the change that changes

I'm a Buharist to the core
I am what I am, not for a fee
Wanting nothing back in return
And my core value?..... Patriotism
I'm unique, special, different, selfless
Educated, informed, enlighten, optimistic
I'm not much in person, but everything in us.

I'm a Buharist to the core
I've chosen to be part of this
O history, put me on this half
His side of the coin, not the flip
I stand to be counted, not a hater
Nor among the looters or wailers
Definitely not my nation's saboteur.

I'm a Buharist to the core
Sacrificer of my beloved lamb
For the greatness of my country
Cast king N afloat, a soaring eagle
Free from the shackles of bondage
From demeaning chains of poverty
Transformation; Frownism to Smilism

I'm a Buharist to the core
Now, some might not like it so
You might even think it unhealthy
You might even hatefully detest it
But that's just the way it is, for me
My nation comes first, I give it m'all
I am what I am, proudly a new Nigerian.

I'm a Buharist.
