Hello Cover for Our KDF: Our Dear KDF Soldiers, Can You Hear Me?



Hello, hello, hellooo, our dear soldiers
I was wondering if I could get your ears
The last one week you have suffered so much, a lot unlike in past years
They say time heals but this one the militants seem to be getting stronger
Every now and then we hear you are falling back beaten, weaker
Hello

Hello KDF can you hear me?

We are in Nairobi trying to figure out how much you are going through in Somalia
When you had just entered there five years ago, younger, eager, no fear
You said you were gonna destroy the enemy within a short time and endear
Us to your Operation Linda Nchi but the world seems to have fallen on your feet
There is a big difference between our hopes and the reality seeing your feat
Hello

Their wives, daughters, sons, mothers and fathers must have called a thousand times
To ask what happened to their dear children facing the enemy, please hear their cries
But when they call you seem not to be home or near your phone, which side of the dice
Should they expect, the coffin or their happy faces returning home after heavy fire?
Hello our dear commanders please talk to the suffering families before they retire
Their hopes to fate, forget their faith and accept the pain from that empire
Hello

It’s so typical of us to be cynical and forget the reason why you went there
We are sorry but in a combat you must tell us what you have achieved instead of bare
Stories that do not give us any hope of you winning that war but fears of losing, we stare
We hope that you are well, did you ever make it out of the place where you got hit in El Adde?


Hello from the other side of the heart
They must have called a thousand times to tell you they want you back
But when they call you seem not pick the phone but they are not done
Please do not break their hearts, please come back
They can’t take this anymore, anymore
Hello
Hello KDF can you hear me?
