LAGOS BOY 

Lagos boy face up to the truth 
Hope is fading, chances slipping 
And neither joy nor pride in victory past 
can stay the closing, if tomorrows failings are sealed 

Lagos boy I have heard the world's 
no longer listening, and long stopped caring 
It's bitter joy, guiding home the lost 
whose fated journey is not beginning to end 

You promised so much, we longed for so long 
Beyond reach or touch 
Gone where believing went 
tested without relent 
all expectation spent still can't see 
A better future right ahead of us 

Lagos boy pull back from the edge 
Of self destruction a new direction 
May bring true joy, and help you rid yourself 
Of old perceptions till self-deception is past 

it's unravelling before your eyes, be still, then you might see there's so much ahead 

We struggled we fought, survived all as one 
tho' beaten and wrought 
We seek a new dream to hold 
to make us brave and bold 
Eyes without scales of old that see 
A brighter future right ahead of us 

Lagos boy you bound our hopes to faith 
but God is sleeping and can't hear our pleading 
We prayed that joy would find our weary hearts 
Tho' we're still waiting, time is passing us by 

Lagos boy you have to turn it round 
So many of you are not returning 
and there's no joy in losing sight of home 
When home is burning and you've no home Lagos boy
