Jay, Soma
Verse 1
People dey for street wey never chop
While some go overseas to just go shop
Even when oil dey naira dey drop
So how e go be if e come stop?
Some people troway face others dey watch
As our glory dey fade pass jeans wey wash
Though me I go yan no be too much
Coz those guys wey dey up no dey like such
REFRAIN
So I go hush, coz dem dey here
Dem dey see and dem dey hear
CHORUS
As hunger just dey echo…echo
Poverty just dey echo…echo
Corruption just dey echo…echo
Killing’s just dey echo…echo
Echo… Echo…
VERSE 2
I be think say by now we go don grow
But after all these years nothing to show
Our democracy sef that one na joke joke joke
Coz all dem promises don turn to scope
But I go stop here coz dem no deaf
Dem dey see and dem dey hear
CHORUS
As hunger just dey echo…echo
Poverty just dey echo…echo
Corruption just dey echo…echo
Killing’s just dey echo…echo
Echo… Echo…
SPOKEN WORD
Our leaders have mole vision (they can’t see nothing)
Exalted rogues blinded by vanity
All they see is the dollar sign
While over 200 innocent girls are enslaved in God knows where
We take one step forward and three steps back and we call that progress
When would this ever make sense?
How would this ever make sense?
