FASTING O' CLOCK

I hear a sound,
It's a very sharp sound
And also sounding funny
It is grunting like a pig that has not eaten
Can you hear it too?

Its is still sounding
And from the sound
It is evident that something needs to be done
Can you tell me where the sound is coming from?

I guess i am the only one that can hear it?
Could the sound be coming from my stomach?
Wanting to get some food or snack?
Where could the sound be coming from?

If it is my stomach,
Then the time to eat is not now
I hear another voice
I hope you can hear it this time
 Enticing like the smell of a Nigerian jollof rice

"Oh boy, grab this opportunity 
Steal some meat from the pot."
I heard the voice whispering to me.
I ignored but the voice spoke again

"Guy, see this fine babe
Be smart and collect her contact
I fit help you package her"
I almost fell for this one
But as a sharp guy
I dodged it.

But at the end, 
I did not fall for any of the voices 
Because I have a goal
Heaven is my goal
I ain't going to die if I keep my flesh under subjection
