Country (Original)
The greed, corruption and injustice of today
And one day one day
We will not get any job to do oh
Eei
We voted for leadership
Fix it,fix it,
They say democracy
I want to know the meaning of democracy
Hey e yie
They said we should be citizens
But not spectators no ooh
Now we voice out
So tell me why the killing
Do people have to die, to show say we are serious yie
Niama s3y, niama p)t)
Buh who do we tell?
Cos people way Dem swear, say they go protect us yie
Are the same people now turn to be our killers
Eh awoh Nkrumah ehh

How can you kill human being like fowl
As we Dey fight for what is our right
Work no dey, food no dey
Or is it that you turn a blind eye?
Well, for our young girls before they go cash,
Unless they turn to pornstars
And for the boys too,
If not a robber, then he turn to fraudster
What a country are we living in?
Led down by the people we believing in
Cos if I tell you all the things way we get for the country still we be poor you never go believe me
