Trista Olayinka - Stand up for your right Lyrics




Welcome to Africa Winter
The resources of a nation of a God-given
Gift for the benefit of its citizens.
Why should some inconsiderate few abuse
Power and live in obscene affluence
While the rest of us are improvised in abject poverty
Welcome to Africa, winter.

Either boy or girl we be responsible people
All in the name of change we tolerated the evil
Choked us with the pain say nothing wey we fit do
Innocent people are still living with the struggle

Manually o
Automatically o
Dem drive is crazy o
Na so we miss the road o
The matter too deep o
Ko seni fe bo koto
We tire to dey follow
Motor wey no know road.

Stand up for you right
Stand up for you right
Together we can fight
Together we can fight
We can fight to make it right
We can fight to make it right
I ain't talking violence but we cannot be silent

Stand up for you right
Stand up for you right
Together we can fight
Together we can fight
We can fight to make it right
We can fight to make it right
I ain't talking violence but we cannot be silent

Story story over we tire to dey sober
Time for unfulfilled electoral promises is over
Show love to humanity
Stop police brutality
Thought you gonna protect us
You're killing with impunity

You're living in a luxury
Thou it shouldn't bother me
But for the fact they used us and they acting like say won o rewa ri
Oju wa shima tun ra ri
Living like it's slavery
Person wey I trust woefully you're failing me

Manually o
Automatically o
Dem drive is crazy o
Na so we miss the road o
The matter too deep o
Ko seni fe bo koto
We tire to dey follow
Motor wey no know road.

Stand up for you right
Stand up for you right
Together we can fight
Together we can fight
We can fight to make it right
We can fight to make it right
I ain't talking violence but we cannot be silent

Stand up for you right
Stand up for you right
Together we can fight
Together we can fight
We can fight to make it right
We can fight to make it right
I ain't talking violence but we cannot be silent

Enough is enough
Tell them they don't wanna mess with this
Generation or the ones wey dey come
If we can excel in this challenging
Circumstances then we can do more
We can no longer legitimise
Illegalities by silence but war
If na police brutality go make up
To speak up then be it WHAT!

Attend to our demands and that's the call
We don't wanna meet in the court
The genuine change is now

If you cannot create it don't damage it
Oh no
