the equal rights on paper

Sabahans and Sarawakians
The time to wake up from their slumber
For decades they lived through the routines
Like ropes poking to their noses and lead away

Every watering hole they think it is great
Something different from their days
For decades they lived with hope of paradise
Most don't get it in their lives

The political awakening now
They see a different picture in their minds
The political indifference in their countries
The journey of obstacles they now realize

Sabah and Sarawak
The equal rights in forming Malaysia
Along the way Sabah and Sarawak lose
Much more than the leaders bargained for

The equal rights on paper
The implementation as equal partners
It never comes that way
Sabah and Sarawak become mistresses

The Amno called them the fixed deposit
For decades the people didn't realize
Until today majority still behave that way
The political consciousness never sinks it in

Now the sparks have lighted up
It has flooded it into the darkness of minds
Some have woken up to see the unfairness
They are slowly asking back their rights
