'Wanna go around'

The world we live in
is round, so have they said
and it goes around
acquainting me with the knowledge 
whoever goes around comes around

The man am named after
wasn't around a century ago
came to being and then ceased again
and he would say;
as he walk on Gikuyu's soil
'back and forth is the order of life'
that 'that which goes up
settles back on the ground'

my conscious feels cheated 
by the knowledge so proposed
my going up is always short-lived
and coming around so soon

I thirst for time to come
when defied will be the odds
when I'll rise beyond gravity's reach
never to descend again
Then go around,
Never to come around.
