Intro:
You turn on the tv and this is all you see
Verse One:
Common medicine
Something small for the belly man
Something small make I tell again?
We dey roam these streets daily its like hell and back
Hell, if you're born very black
So, charley make you never slack
If e be drugs you go sell on these streets try get this crack
Cos if you fit ship am wey you make a couple milli
Koraa over here you won't get your celly tapped
The black man's pride is wealth
But we've been wronging ourselves
The white man step down for gold coast and all those times we were counting some shells?
This be why this artist rebels
Used to laugh with santo and Osuofia
But it went south Xenophobia
We all trying to keep it low key but
These countries obi nhw3 obi ba
Chorus (Yaw P):
I dey pray for mama Africa
(It won't be saved )3x by some carpenter
On the slave ships, on the slave ships
We still be the passengers
Verse Two:
And things aint been the same since Nkrumah passed away
No nsromas plan to stay
Pop these head of states! they chop all the national cake
With schemes so elaborate
They say politics is just a game
But they won't tell you heavens fake
And the guy wey you just dey praise
Be figment of your imagina-
Gyae saa na wo ha adwin Kay
Ghanaians be pacifist
So, we leave shit as it is
I mean we go rather make noise from the back of our phones
With hashtags, memes and some characters
Than actually be activists?
So, I shouldn't even rap this shit
I should probably rap about going to clubs and bagging chicks
Or how I get better car pass you
Cash too, and you're still broke at 36
Peep the social framework
Go school and claim work
But if you try to change the statement
Society go see you as aimless
You'll be deemed as satan
But don't hate them
They don't know it's a set up
Just move your pieces like a go getter
Don't let up
The greatest thing that can hold you back is fear you should know better

They sold us 8x
