I dey hear the voice of ma mother from afar
ha gbuo la mu ooh
I dey hear the cry of my sister from afar
ha na egbu nmadu le
They kill my brothers
Kidnap my sister eh!
No Be So
You kill ma papa
Kidnap ma mama eh
No Be So
Verse 1
i feel so down
Like i’ve lost ma crown,
Dunt ask me why i left ma town .
Cos Ha ka na egbu nmadu le chai
I cry every time
That I look around
When i see dis crowd
wit der blood on d ground
Tears in ma eyes
Like rain from the sky
Feeling deep pain
And i ask God why
Ma city gone down
Like the last samurai
Makes you wonder
Who’s next to die
kidnapping
is like a bow tie
I give the eye
For dis battle cry
And i Decry
The pain you caused me
We are seeing things
But no confrontation
bomb in our lungs
like the air we breath,
carry me along
cos i’ve lost ma breath.
Somebody tell me why chai
Chorus
I dey hear the voice of ma mother from afar
ha gbuo la mu ooh
I dey hear the cry of my sister from afar
ha na egbu nmadu le
They kill my brothers
Kidnap my sister eh!
No Be So
You kill ma papa
Kidnap ma mama eh
No Be So
Verse 2
I gat tears in ma heart
Blood in ma eyes
As i try to realise
Why hating on me, ma brother
Why kill one another
Ma hood got flooded with violence
Our street so cold with silence
Evil men, no conscience
We now breath air
With no confidence
They leave the atmosphere with grief
Coming like a thief
With their beef
Boom Boom!!
Ma Neighbourhood is gone
Six feet under the ground
Over thrown ma town
Take our crown
But your threats, can’t defeat us
And death cant deplete us
Cos no be you wey create us
Chorus
I dey hear the voice of ma mother from afar
ha gbuo la mu ooh
I dey hear the cry of my sister from afar
ha na egbu nmadu le
They kill my brothers
Kidnap my sister eh!
No Be So
You kill ma papa
Kidnap ma mama eh
No Be So
Verse 3
Lemme ask you something
My brother
Why be a prey
To your fellow man
Ah! With your Arsenal
We hide and we kill
Like cannibals
My brother!
Are we animals
And we are celebrating
Like its carnival
Chinedu, Taiwo, Musa
Ogini ne me ?
Biko wazobia na ebe
Help me see ma motherland
People die everyday in ma fatherland
Bomb blast, funeral everwhere
Like say,
Its a no man’s land?
Naija, i hope you’re listening
We need peace, love and unity
I dunt care even if
Na love wanti ti,
Ma brother
Lemme feel the tin
