Nna! Listen to the sound of the people.
It is time for a change in our land.
Oya, let us speak the truth today.
Look at the struggles surrounding our home,
Our brothers are tired, we are standing alone.
Trouble is knocking on every single door,
We cannot take this suffering anymore.
If you love your children and your family name,
We must work together to move out of this pain.
The road is long but the vision is clear,
It is time to cast away all of our fear.
Twenty-twenty-seven is coming, stay strong,
Let us fix what has been going so wrong.
Do not sell your future for a piece of the bread,
Rise up Nigeria, use your heart and your head.
Omalicha land, let us make it brand new,
Nigeria, rise up, it is waiting for you.
Teachers and workers and people of pride,
Put all your differences standing aside.
Do you want to see our children in chains?
Or do you want to break away from these pains?
What you take today will cost you tomorrow,
Don't let them fill up our houses with sorrow.
Think of the legacy, think of the street,
Stand on your ground, make our victory sweet.
Twenty-twenty-seven is coming, stay strong,
Let us fix what has been going so wrong.
Do not sell your future for a piece of the bread,
Rise up Nigeria, use your heart and your head.
Omalicha land, let us make it brand new,
Nigeria, rise up, it is waiting for you.
Chai! We are the strength, we are the light,
We hold the power to do what is right.
No wahala, if we stand as one,
The battle is over, the work is begun.
So tell every neighbor from Enugu to town,
We are not meant to be kept on the ground.
Chop life with purpose, be smart and be wise,
Look at the beauty right here in our eyes.
Let us rebuild with a brand new design,
Everything changes when we start to shine.
Twenty-twenty-seven is coming, stay strong,
Let us fix what has been going so wrong.
Do not sell your future for a piece of the bread,
Rise up Nigeria, use your heart and your head.
Omalicha land, let us make it brand new,
Nigeria, rise up, it is waiting for you.
Rise up, Nigeria, it is your time.
Believe in the journey, believe in the climb.
Oya! Let us go.
Twenty-twenty-seven, the change is here.
Chop life!
