Mohamed Adan Dahir
(Verse 1)
Yo, government, can you hear us now?
Or you too busy posing with fake smiles and vows?
The youth are screaming in silence, trust,
While you talk in suits, they bleed in the dust.
Council flats like cages, no escape plan,
Underfunded schools, no tools in their hand.
You cut youth clubs, cut hope, cut ties,
Then blame them when the streets claim lives?
They ain’t bad—they’re abandoned,
Lost in a world you planned and branded.
Give 'em purpose, or they’ll make their own,
And that purpose might come in a darker tone.
(Hook)
Act now, not later—this is war.
Invest in our youth, or prepare for more.
You build prisons, but not their dreams—
They need peace, not broken schemes.
(Verse 2)
Build back the clubs where kids can thrive,
Mentors, safe zones—keep ‘em alive.
Bring back arts, let 'em write, dance, speak,
Let the quiet ones shine, let the lost ones peak.
Put counselors in schools who get the game,
Not just teachers who pass the blame.
We need jobs, trades, skills for life,
Not just warnings and flashing lights.
Mental health’s a war that they fight alone,
Self-hate and fear deep in their bones.
So stop ignoring what's clear to see—
You can't fix pain with a policy fee.
(Bridge – Spoken Truth)
You wanna save billions on broken lives?
Then spend millions where hope still survives.
One mentor. One safe place. One push.
Can change a life before it gets crushed.
(Verse 3)
So I'm calling you out—MPs, Lords, Mayors—
Step in these ends, come face these layers.
Talk to the youth, not about them, please,
Walk in their shoes before you preach with ease.
They need healing, they need care,
They need more than your media glare.
They need homes with heat and food,
Not headlines painting them as crude.
You want a better UK? Then invest in the heart,
That’s the kids in the bits where it’s dark from the start.
I’m Mohamed Adan Dahir—The Lion in the Fight,
I speak for the voiceless, I bring the light.
(Outro)
So hear my words, let ‘em echo loud,
Before another dream gets wrapped in a shroud.
Save the youth, don’t wait till they’re gone,
They’re the future—build them strong.
