I created you, I named you
I fed you, I nurtured you.
It’s plain for all to see
you are produced by me
my flesh and blood
with salty sweat showering like flood.
You are my pride and Joy
You are my BOY!
Two years we have been together
we traverse the country together.
Up north to Permatang Pauh, Penanti, Bukit Selambau
or to Malacca, Machap down south.
Recording fiery, witty speeches throughout
Day in night out, year in year out.
By and by thousands watch you
for their daily news on You Tube.
You have hits after hits
leaving viewers in fits.
You feed the Rakyat, hungry for alternative views
that is not found on TV 3 news.
Sleepy nights editing, uploading were routine beat
the hard work and sacrifices were worth it.
Never did I dream
one day you would be snatched from me
whilst you were in my arms.
It hit me hard, it hit me numb.
No one told me
no one ever asked me.
It sucks, it hurts, it pains me thrice
to find fame comes with a price.
It’s easy to ride on your fame
Without lifting a finger and claim
you as their own
and hijack you to their new home.
Thinking of you, day and night
sleepless nights.
I can’t get over
raiders took you over.
They have no right
absolutely no moral right
to take over your name
instead of getting their own name.
You are still mine
though they try to cast doubt on people's mind
for they have created your double.
But the Rakyat know who’s the double
who is the real Media Rakyat.net
Only you my BOY, is the Original Media Rakyat.net
