Nna, listen to the wind of change
Oya, let us reason together
The road is long and the sun is hot
We carry our burdens, giving all we got
From Enugu to Lagos, the story is the same
We dey hustle hard, putting hunger to shame
But look at the sign, see the writing on the wall
If we follow the same path, we are bound to fall
No be say we curse, no be say we blind
But we need a new vision for the peace of mind
Oh, Nigeria, better days are coming soon
Like the rising sun, we go chase away the gloom
We no fit go back to the way we used to be
We need a better future for you and for me
Chop life with wisdom, keep your head up high
Underneath the blue of the Nigerian sky
Chai! The cost of the bread, the cost of the fuel
They treat the common man like a forgotten tool
We don suffer small, we don carry our cross
But tell me, my brother, who is really the boss?
Is it the one who promised and forgot the vow?
Or is it the people who are suffering now?
Omo, open your eyes, let your conscience lead
Planting better future is a noble deed
Oh, Nigeria, better days are coming soon
Like the rising sun, we go chase away the gloom
We no fit go back to the way we used to be
We need a better future for you and for me
Chop life with wisdom, keep your head up high
Underneath the blue of the Nigerian sky
No more suffering, no more pain
We pray for the sun to wash away the rain
With the udu beating and the guitar strings
Let us hear the song that the future sings
Ah ah! We are rising, we are strong
We have waited for the light for too long
So keep your PVC like a golden key
A weapon for the change that we want to see
No wahala, just stand for what is right
We walk away from shadow into the light
Omalicha, our land is blessed and deep
We have promises to keep before we sleep
Let the horn section blow, let the rhythm flow
To the promise land, that is where we go
Oh, Nigeria, better days are coming soon
Like the rising sun, we go chase away the gloom
We no fit go back to the way we used to be
We need a better future for you and for me
Chop life with wisdom, keep your head up high
Underneath the blue of the Nigerian sky
Chop life, but choose the path of light
Better days, yes, they are in our sight
Oya, move forward, never look behind
Nigeria, we are one, heart and mind
Nna! It is time.
