I don’t need nothing for my troubles now
Please tell my wife and her cabal
That only the Almighty Allah can decide
And now he’s come to claim my soul
Ask her for how much she sold my pride
My dignity and life besides
I don’t need nothing for my troubles now
I’ve laid my weary head to rest
The lies, the pain, the grand façade
Please ask my wife if she did her best
To ease my pain and sooth my brow
Sneaking me back in the dead of night
Please tell my wife and her cabal
That only the Almighty Allah can decide
And now he’s come to claim my soul
Ask her for how much she sold my pride
My dignity and life besides
I don’t need nothing for my troubles now
I’ve laid my weary head to rest
The lies, the pain, the grand façade
Please ask my wife if she did her best
To ease my pain and sooth my brow
Sneaking me back in the dead of night
As if I was a thief or louse
When it was best to let me be
I don’t need nothing for my troubles now
I hope you remember me for what I was
Before they turned me into a thing
Please don’t forgot for all I stood
Before I became a running joke
What I endured no one shall know
When it was best to let me be
I don’t need nothing for my troubles now
I hope you remember me for what I was
Before they turned me into a thing
Please don’t forgot for all I stood
Before I became a running joke
What I endured no one shall know
But now alas the end has come
I don’t need nothing for my troubles now
For in my lifetime I gave my all
To serve my home and motherland
To lead with quiet dignity and grace
But alas it was not meant to be
From ash we come and so return
I pray for Allah to rest my soul
I don’t need nothing for my troubles now
To those who rejoice at my demise
Tell them this fate befalls all men
There is still time to change their ways
To tell the truth, to face the facts
To all my children I bid farewell
I don’t need nothing for my troubles now
For in my lifetime I gave my all
To serve my home and motherland
To lead with quiet dignity and grace
But alas it was not meant to be
From ash we come and so return
I pray for Allah to rest my soul
I don’t need nothing for my troubles now
To those who rejoice at my demise
Tell them this fate befalls all men
There is still time to change their ways
To tell the truth, to face the facts
To all my children I bid farewell
My time has come and I go in peace
I did my best with what I had
I don’t need nothing for my troubles now
I don’t need nothing for my troubles now.
I did my best with what I had
I don’t need nothing for my troubles now
I don’t need nothing for my troubles now.

Sad. But he is at peace now.
May God forgive us all.
I was a huge critic of the late president but in an undramatic turn of events, I now only feel pity for him. May his soul rest in peace. Nice poem.
Nice poem, the man is gone, may his soul rest in peace.

disagree. People dont necessarily rejoice @a demise.
Even a dog dies and people go sad.
What no one should expect is a mournful lot, because he died, he that made no sense to their lives, rather ruined it the more.
I feel no pity for the mallam. He brought it 100% unto himself.

Chelsea rules indeed this year tho.:)
