Broken

Arise o compatriots
But they never gonna obey
Peace and unity
But we ain't even in harmony
Unity in diversity
One direction but moving separately

Do we called this a country
Unity for the pocket
Are we serving or being served
Nepotism
Hypocrites when I look around

I need to take a bow
Take a look at our history
Beautiful cultures and tradition
Festivals, celebration
Deeper than exploiting the region

We are deep in our roots
Cemented by beliefs
No pride in the culture
No knowledge about tradition
We are strangers to our region

They said our gods evil
I swear they said it

Post change, they don't go
Still the same vision
Greed and corruption
Bloodshed of our brothers
Breaths aren't fresh
Echoes and trauma
Tears for the loved ones

Do we still remain a nation
Do we keep milking the ocean
Israelites and Pharaoh
Good enough I'm Moses
Are we ever gonna see the light
I see Bullets flying out
Hitting the wrong
Are we ever gonna see the light
Our heartbeat singing a song
They bringing guns
Killing the young
Nowhere feels safe
Still in the lock
But they in caps and we feed on the crumbs
Are we choosing wrong
Government is the people
Do we blame the people
This a fucking dead end
Living Citizens, Dead country
Yes we giving light but we still in dark
And we get e oil, but we still dey buy
Abeg stop here, i want to get down
Ebin pawa o, i swear we being broken
I'm son of a gun
And ain't never do wrong
Damn this country is gone
