What is the sacrifice?
What is the price for my freedom?
I can run to the mountains
Run for safety
With my children
Oh maybe
Oh maybe
I can fight oh
What is the sacrifice?
What is the price for my freedom?
I can run to the mountains
Run for safety
With my children
Oh maybe
Oh maybe
I can fight oh
Fight oh
Fight for my freedom
Fight for my freedom
Oh maybe
Oh maybe
I will rise up
Fight for my freedom
Do you hear the war drums?
Resounding from the forest
Do you see thick smoke in a blue sky?
Do you see the guns?
In the hands of the lawless
Do you see revolt in due time?
Do you comprehend?
The neglect by authority
Do you understand?
The plight of the minority
Do you hear the loud silence?
As background music for the allowed violence
Punnehhh!
The soul of the savannah is begrudged
The streams overflow with blood
The enemy lurks in the shrubs
Chaos surrounds from the far hills
Plateaus overwhelmed in the valleys
Lost for words to describe the anguish
As victims continue to communicate in the aggressor's language
Who let these beast of burdens destroy the farm yields?
Who let them pollute the pond and ruin the cornfields?
Davou says he don't feel safe no more
Tersoo says he's facing the same horror
Same story from the Numan River to the Kasina Ala shores
From the south of the Kaduna River to the Lokoja shores
Nothing but systematic gentrification
Emphatic cultural mutilation
So this one is for the minority tribes
Ones who stare brutality dead in the eyes
Especially the ones with no senators
This one's for the villages at night attacked by predators
This one is for those who
First hand had to witness all the evil
This one is for Leah
