How many people want to lead with a good intention
They want to get some money, spend it on a new invention
Go to sleep on expensive sheets while the streets in tension 
They make the weak break their backs and fix it up with pension
I go back in history so i can understand
That there's no mystery, it's written in the sands
Politics and lies go hand in hand
Politics and lies go hand in hand

I haven't slept all week
Every night restless in my sheets
Talk to God but my prayers don't reach 
Nigerian blood stains on the streets
The youths catch bullet strays from police
That's the only way their souls can be freed 
Politicians selling us short when they speak 
And they sell our blood to the world when we bleed 
News headlines make our royalty cheap
They trade it for the glory, we just die on repeat 
The motherland is turning to a war zone 
We are fighting with devils that come in all forms 
Some are dressed in suits and ties and uniforms 
Use their weapons and the power to abuse the law 
For the longest they had our backs against the wall
If sars is killing our kids who do we call
There's nothing I want more than peace and harmony
Nigeria blood runs in my arteries
And Africa's always been a part of me 
Even when I'm not home she's not far from me
All this gun smoke is affecting her lungs 
Kids died protesting cause they wouldn't run 
They were brave, stood for what they believe in 
And the truth had them killed for no reason 
My heart goes out to all the mothers grieving
Shedding tears that couldn't afford freedom
Living all their days under dark clouds
I'm sending prayers to the lord for their healing
And we suppose to trust what the government says
Wake up to the news half the country's dead
I'm just wondering I've been looking for truth 
We not slaves we kings and queens in our roots
Oga see the suffer wey the trust don cost me
No make me another promise
You never fulfil the former promise 
Wey you forget as you enter office
See the suffer wey the trust don cost me
No make me another promise
You never fulfil the former promise
Wey you forget as you enter office

How many people want to lead with a good intention
They want to get some money, spend it on a new invention
Go to sleep on expensive sheets while the streets in tension 
They make the weak break their backs and fix it up with pension
I go back in history so i can understand
That there's no mystery, it's written in the sands
Politics and lies go hand in hand
Politics and lies go hand in hand
Oga see the suffer wey the trust don cost me
No make me another promise
You never fulfil the former promise 
Wey you forget as you enter office
