Kuti's Anthem

Eh-ya!
Seven minutes later
All don cool down, brother
Police don go away
Army don disappear
Them leave sorrow, tears and blood
Them regular trademark
Them leave sorrow, tears and blood
Them regular trademark
Them regular trademark
Them regular trademark
That is why
Eh-ya!
Someone just die
Someone just die
Eh-ya!
Police they come, army they come
That is why
Eh-ya!
Everybody run run run
Eh-ya!
Everybody scatter scatter
Eh-ya!
Someone just die
That is why

And you ask me what I think about the news
It ain't current enough for my views
Ain't no marching enough for my shoes
They ain't stomping enough to get through
Borderline, I'm so borderline fumbling through this voter line
Am I just living or am I just letting go of my
Self
Hating the others waited I'm certified
Murder rise they ill advised but what am I?
A target shit we far from it we come alive
Them bullets flying become aligned they struck a line
A fucking lion I'm roaring nah we soaring nah
We been working oh boy am I
Distorted nah
Appeared through
There's a clear view in my rear view
But what I'm seeing is it geared to
What I'm into
Most just talking they scared walking and fearful

That is why
Eh-ya!
Someone just die
Someone just die
Eh-ya!
Police they come, army they come
That is why
Eh-ya!
Everybody run run run
Eh-ya!
Everybody scatter scatter
Eh-ya!
Someone just die
That is why

And you ask me what I think about the news
It ain't current enough for my views
Ain't no marching enough for my shoes
They ain't stomping enough to get through

And you ask me what I think about the news
It ain't current enough for my views
Ain't no marching enough for my shoes
They ain't stomping enough to get through

Fuck you, tell em again
What you yelling
Fuck you, tell em again
What we yelling
Fuck you, tell em again
What you yelling
Fuck you tell 'em again

Seven minutes later
All don cool down, brother
Police don go away
Army don disappear
Them leave sorrow, tears and blood
Them regular trademark
Them leave sorrow, tears and blood
Them regular trademark
Them regular trademark
Them regular trademark
That is why

What you yelling
Fuck you, tell em again
What we yelling
Fuck you, tell em again oh
Fuck you, tell em again oh

And flying off the handle ain't dismantling shit
*mumbles
And we strive to get wealth
We ain't dying for our health

That is why
Eh-ya!
Someone just die
Someone just die
Someone just die
Police they come, army they come
That is why
Eh-ya!
Everybody run run run
Eh-ya!
Everybody scatter scatter
Eh-ya!
Someone just die
That is why
