Fela kuti sing na Dem killam,eedris sing dey wan killam,African china song dey wan killam, Nigeria government we don tire eeh eeh,everyday na problem,everyday wahala o,no food to chop o,no water to drink o,iyeah I wish Nigeria is like china,I wish Nigeria is London,I wish Nigeria is like America,then who go ask for freedom
Nigeria politicians are all criminals, Nigeria police are all criminals, Nigeria lawyers some are criminals, Nigeria pastors some are criminals
No hope for the poor
No future for the youths
If you talk you go die
Oh God I hope I am safe
Police at the corner, looking for a bribe
Killing the spirit of the whole damn tribe
But we are resilient, we stay on the grind
Leaving the darkness and the fear behind
Oh Nigeria, we are the light in the dark
Finding our fire, we’re ready to spark
Through the injustice and the legal decay
We push for the change, we go find our way
Omo, we rise, like the sun in the morning
Heeding the call, yeah, the truth is dawning
Lawyers in the courtroom, selling the truth
While they neglect the hunger of our youth
Insecurity knocking at the front door
We don’t know who to trust in this city no more
But keep your head high, don't let them break you
Even in the storm, the spirit will wake you
Build up the nation with the strength in your heart
We keep moving forward, we’re the work of art
Oh Nigeria, we are the light in the dark
Finding our fire, we’re ready to spark
Through the injustice and the legal decay
We push for the change, we go find our way
Omo, we rise, like the sun in the morning
Heeding the call, yeah, the truth is dawning
No more silence, we dey speak our mind
Leaving the chains of the past behind
Together as one, that’s the power we need
Planting the future, planting the seed
(E choke!)
Rise up, my brother, rise up, my sister
Don’t let the system become your master
Your voice is the weapon, your truth is the key
This is the future, the land of the free
Oh Nigeria, we are the light in the dark
Finding our fire, we’re ready to spark
Through the injustice and the legal decay
We push for the change, we go find our way
Omo, we rise, like the sun in the morning
Heeding the call, yeah, the truth is dawning
Yeah, we move, no looking back
Streets to the stars, we stay on track
(No wahala, we move)
(Nigeria, rise!)
(See gobe, we clear it)
(One love, one people)
