You Better Ask Yourself (General Elektriks Remix)
Everybody's talkin' (talkin', talkin', talkin', talkin')
That the savior will be comin' (will be comin', comin', comin')
And he will end all the sufferin' (end the sufferin', sufferin', sufferin')
But this na that same old story (same old story, story, story)
We're don' be part of them strategy (talkin', talkin', talkin', talkin')
To keep the people always wonderin' (talkin', talkin', talkin', talkin')
Whilst they take all our resources (talkin', talkin', talkin', talkin')
Leavin' us in total poverty (talkin', talkin', talkin', talkin')
I want you to do one favor for me
I want you to do somethin' for yourselves
I want you to do somethin' for me now
I want you to do somethin' for yourself
We all know say Africa not the richest continent
We all come know say we come be one of the poorest people as well
Na, we get the coal, the diamond, cocoa and rubber
We come know say na we get the oil and the many other resources too
You better ask yourself, how the richest continent get the poorest people? (You better ask yourself)
Why everybody dey rush for the resources of Africa? (You better ask yourself)
How many more years we go waste before the savior go come save us? (You better ask yourself)
Why as we dey wait, other nations dey get richer? (You better ask yourself)
Shey 'e good as we wey get oil, na we dey suffer? (You better ask yourself)
Why na the savior them dey wait before them make our lives better oh? (You better ask yourself)
Why na the bad things them dey teach us 'bout our fore fathers? (You better ask yourself)
Shey na true Christianity, all these na drama talk oh-ahn? (You better ask yourself)
You better ask yourself (you better ask yourself)
If you want make your life better (you better ask yourself)
(You better ask yourself)
(You better ask yourself)
You better ask yourself (you better ask yourself)
If you want make your life better (you better ask yourself)
(You better ask yourself)
You better ask yourself
(You better ask yourself)
(You better ask yourself)
(You better ask yourself)
(You better ask yourself)
(You better ask yourself)
(You better ask yourself)
(You better ask yourself)
(You better ask yourself)
That the savior will be comin' (will be comin', comin', comin')
And he will end all the sufferin' (end the sufferin', sufferin', sufferin')
But this na that same old story (same old story, story, story)
