*Intro*
Naija, Naija, my country
Why you dey cry like this?
*Verse 1*
Road no safe again, bandits dey on the highway
Mama dey market, but bag dey empty every day
Hunger dey bite, but leaders dey chop fat
Promises full air, but nothing dey intact
Children no dey go school, fear dey follow us
Bad governance don turn our joy to dust
*Pre-Chorus*
We pray, we protest, we still dey hope
But the ground dey shake under our rope
*Chorus*
Naija my country, wetin dey happen?
Insecurity everywhere, who go answer?
People dey hungry, leaders dey sleep
Banditry dey grow while the poor dey weep
Naija my country, we need change now
Make justice rain, make peace come down
*Verse 2*
Farmers no fit farm, fear don take over
Fuel price dey rise, salary no dey cover
Youth get brain, but no get chance
While some dey abroad dey do the dance
We no dey ask for too much
Just light, food, and a life we fit touch
*Bridge*
God see us, hear our cry
Dry these tears from every eye
Make leaders remember who them dey serve
Make Naija get the peace we deserve
*Final Chorus*
Naija my country, we go rise again
Insecurity go end, hunger go wane
We go rebuild, we go stand tall
One Nigeria, one people, one call
*At the end*
This song na for my people... from Abraham

You can record this on a serious Afrobeat/Highlife beat with talking drums and choir backing. It’s painful but hopeful.
