Moon Control
African minds, African souls,
Yet only one controls
Her fiery hair is one of a kind
Yet no one can see inside her mask of destruction
Her name is Rae Hood, a killer of all beasts,
She is neither a hero nor a villain
You don't want to get on her bad side
For the moon power is all hers
African tribes hide,
for she won't spare anyone on her path of vengeance
"Why is she angry?" they ask
But she never reveals her past
She's a man eater, literally
their power unbelievably strong
Yet can they beat the moon control?
Africa is in danger
The pots and pans destroyed
All thanks to the "moon witch"
Who has probably lost control
Her thirst for vengeance made her crazy
So her hold on the moon is lost forever
Lives have been spared
People believed that she has changed
but no one knows that the infamous Rae Hood controls the moon
No more
