You keep pushing the blame on our colonial fathers
You say they came and they took all we had pocessed
They have to take the abuse that they have caused our present state with their
intruding history
Use our goodness and nourishment in the Name of missionary
Lied to us,blinded slaved us,misplaced us,strengthen us,hardened us then
they replaced us now we got to learn from pain
Now it is up to us to gain some recognition

wake up every day we complain
what could build us is around us
but we only think 2 plain
go too fast forget our pace,
important is money and running ur ratrace
the little things around u
could bring u joy if u see but
u are distracted by the world

Everything changes,
remember when humans had to live in cages
and now we own our own stages
time, yes age turns our pages (2x)

Looking out of my window, chilling warm relaxing my speed
Watching the people right back down on the streets
Asking myself how I feel as I see d living passing me

This is my confession
I tried so many times to oppress him
Now I decided to explode and let my heart speak its ache
Now I've done all my weak body can fulfil I leave it up to him ,and still I know that my anxiousness and my truthfulness
Can't be paid back with his love
Can't be paid back with his love
I leave it up to him, leave it up
Still I know, that my feelings are for no use

Till the end of time, waiting, waiting, waiting

I might be weak but I don’t belong to you
I might be weary but God sees the strength in me
So so many things I’ve done, I shouldn’t have
But blood suckers, blood suckers like you

Chorus

Without a bund letting my innermost out
Law abiding still my heart it shrinks to shout
Sorry to say but by now I am dunged by
What I see had to go back to get to me
Bloodshot eyes, my sight translucent, been here too long
So my soul is badly wounded
Lucidity, reality, never gave me the ability to react without my heart
I fight with the world, try to defy its deceitful ways

I heard my name, did you call me ?
Did you speak truth, when you dug wounds,
When you spilled blood, did you say love ?,
When you promised the most high,
You will not betray

Do you love me now (x4)

You said you’d be there for me
In times of trouble when I need you and I’m down
And like why do you need friendship
It’s from my side pure love but I see lately things have been changing
You have goals to achieve
But the road you take abroad and heartless that wants you make another way
You throw stones
Can’t you see that I am human

Government politics, system policies,
money, banks, foundation and discoveries
Mischievious and self centered development strategies,
uneffective enough not to affect the physics and the spirits of mankind
in short and infact where do we go from here when we lack love in our hearts
when we lack an open heart and lie to ourselves and the one that truly loves, that we love
truly we don’t really give a fuck
another day has passed my conscience is hunting me one small form

You got my heart broken
In this state, the way I felt you left me in
Gave me your scripture to read and understand
And not to fear not these voices in my mind
Fighting against my soul
They want to take over
And now too weak and sober
There’s so many thoughts running through my mind

You rescued me from my delusion
So you may reveal the truth that sets me free
You rescued me from my delusion
So you may reveal the truth that sets me free
You kissed away all confusion
Only to lift me up so I can see
You sit in judgement of my sin sin
Nevertheless you forgive me

Is it the past that stops me from growing
A wish to change yesterday though
I know it is future damaging
Slowly recognizing life cannot stay the same
Wish beautiful moments can remain
I pray and don’t loose the track that God makes me run
Cos without you, without the light, there is no sun
Oh but what is it that we have?

You said you'd be there for me
In times of trouble when I need you and I'm down
And likewise you need friendship
It's from my side pure love but I see lately things have been changing
You have goals to achieve
But the roads you take abroad are heartless
That wants you make another way
You throw stones

you said youd be there for me
in times of trouble when i need you and im down
and likewise you need friendship
its from my side pure love but i see lately things have been changing
you have goals to achieve
but the roads you take abroad are heartless
that wants you make another way
you throw stones

I'll seek you out
Flay you alive
One more word and you won't survive
And I'm not scared
Of your stolen power
I see right through you any hour

I won't soothe your pain

Don't try to chase me
Don't try to fool me
Don't even hurt me cos you ain't gettin' nowhere
The lies u told me, you said you'll be there
You'd always stay here but you ain't
And you wouldn't so I can do without

Chorus

So na so I be a condition come make you waje like this
You say your husband na in leave you, you say i go fit betray you
So na so, you dey weak
As I see you before I think say you dey kangpe
Nothing fit , fit shake you, nothing fit , go fit break you
But you rake before
Na you talk say you no go put man before God
Oh, see yourself as you be

30 days have September
April June and November
All the rest have 31
And I am looking for you
I've been running helter skelter
On my mind like my shelter
You are you were
And I've been looking for you

My spirit to your spirit to your feet oh Lord
Soul into your hands oh Lord
Mind into your mind oh Lord
It's illusion
E never tey when I dey yan you this kind yan before
I know say I don come your presence just like this before
And all a dey ask is for you to see and to hear me Lord
Cause recently been on my knees praying for peace oh God

What is the mind without the heart
What am I without my shadow
What is life without knowing that death comes
What is a song without a melody

Needed to search myself to go back
Had no signs of hope before lost in the darkness
Not knowing what my fate makes of me

Is a wonder sugar tagis
dat dat dat dat
I don't know what
tomorrow will be
For you situp una knowa to sofa
You never see good
sugar deeper oh I deeping not you - into you

Come let us be truthful, surrender our pride
Admit the stains on our, our chest, our hands
We seek, we find / we take, we kill
Our love is hate, our smiles are fake
Take my body, take my hands,
take everything you have created
Take your riches, take your money, take everything
But not my experience

I'm restless, in my dreams I long for you
I'm careless with the things I own because of you
Speechless for all that we had is what we disregard now
Feel emptiness

You have had enough,
But this time I see the truth
You don't need me no more

I have been hiding, contemplating
Oh denying feelings I have inside when you are near me
Something within me makes me feel so out of place

I am running away, running away, running away
Running away from you
It is true
I am taking my space, taking my space, taking my space

Eh eh eh eh
In harmony (Eh eh eh eh)
This melody (Eh eh eh eh)
I give to thee (Eh eh eh eh)
That set me free (Eh eh eh eh)
Hold your peace
Cause you"ve been speaking
Cause you've been spitting a lot

In this madness, in this world,
With its swiftness and its cold
You’re my peace of mind, yes!
When the world just jeeps turning
And I know not where to head to
You’re peace of mind!
And when I look up in the skies
Is the one that you created...

Naija, in the loud and roudy of my world
There's a secret place where I find myself, can I find you?
Biafra, the noise of horns of thirsty nigerians,
of hustlers, of mothers confront me as I walk pass.
Lagos, in prayer contemptation, like a ghost
I feel the sorrow of a many still I don't know how much pain it takes.
Naija, I walk the Island, I walk the mainland
I see diversity, I smell capacity but still we suffer, why?

You need this
I tell you but you don't know
I feel it
I feel it in my blood and bones
You love me
You love me but you just don't know
Cause I've been giving myself some time
To recover from all this lies

In the darkness I listen to the melody that life plays, it goes through my ears an my bones / It's a foggy feeling that comes over me an stays, you know it, such moments I'm reminded that the gift of life is life itself If u could ask God to help u, u still got to help yourself / This life it ain't a bed of roses, be aware just like the Ten Commandments of Moeses so...

Hold on / Be strong / Go on / Say we would not devide
Yes we multiply
Hold on / Be strong / Go on say we would not devide

The complications that may occure / You may reach the highest Level of Confusion / Our Life, it includes many different Stations / You may laugh / You may cry / Sometimes you'd even think you could die But Perseverance is character and the character you get form endurance, gives you hofe / Yes Perseverance is character an the character you get from endurance gives you hope

This goes out to you people in the streets
Know it is not easy to survive in this world
Where there is no love, where there is no heart
The things we say, we are, we can never be

You find yourself wandering why
You're sitting in the darkness
Can't find the light in this world

Una dey talk of ur elections, Nigerians, Nigerians,
We dey talk of the redemption, naija, naija
We dey talk of resolutions, oya
Tell me where the solution because nothing dey change
We just dey yan, we just dey spray, we just dey rake,
All these lies so

Suffri, suffri with my soul, jeh jeh jeh jeh

The time has come 4 u to see
That love is something else u practise it to be
The line is long
4 u and me
That leads us 2 the very debt of our hearts
We’re still on the surface deceiving ourselves
Inside we hate,
and want 2 see our best friends fall… oh

We know great things start small
And narrow parts are always rugged
In between those bridges, you find my love
Though it's hard to believe me
'Cause everything around you, confuses your mind
For you're stuck in the lie of your past

Oh deep down, beyond the surface of your humble heart

Viva, viva, viva, viva Africa! (2x)
Welcome to Africa,

Verse 1
Everyday is a struggle, every night in my bed,
I wake up to the morning, when love comes my way,
In my dreams, I am praying, love won't pass me by,
I am running breathlessly, I am gasping for air,

You use your charms
So I can feel you
I can feel you
Your word is a lamp
To my heart
You're my hiding place
My ship, my star
Let me become

Yes. Black. Blackness. The Black side of me. C'mon. Listen up.

... We belong together... We ain't givin' up.

See my people on the road walking I'm not sure as myself where we're headed to... We're going so fast. We're going so fast... Cause they made the rules we're living in today... It's all good 'cause there is one who sees you ever... Take heart... We belong together... We ain't givin' up...

You have no trust in the fact that of being strong... ...and though you lack physical riches... you have achieved spiritual growth. This is what counts.

I don't know
Where you're at
And you don't know
Where I'll be
Cause we can see
Where we're gone
We cannot go far to the places where we want to go
Because we believe in the things that we know from the past

I had a conversation yesterday,
about the reason 4 our existence
so many comfort themselves and say
our fate is just coincidence
I switch on the TV see the breaking news
so many souls they die swiftly
even lovedones could be taken away so mysteriously
