Television tell me stories of the motherland
My people going through a lot you gotta understand
I might just pack up and travel back to my city
And check up on all my family
Make sure they safe from Hemedti
It's a revolution in the truest sense of the word
Swear this shit is really absurd
I ain't lying it's got me worried
Let's take em back real quick
A couple months ago with how it all started
If you still don't know it I'm talking bout
This the story of Sudan
This the story of the famine
You can barely even fathom
What I'm saying just imagine
Gas prices rising rapidly
Food as well a catastrophe
Millions march on the streets
Cause it's not the way that it has to be
They try and kill us they don't want us on top
So they try negotiating but we know it's all talk
Swear it's power to the people they won't ever be denied
The government don't like it so they tryna keep em quiet
Cutting off the internet and now they telling lies
Cause they don't wanna see the revolution televised
But it don't matter cause my people really finna rise up
Swear the leaders that's in power gotta know their times up
Dedicate it to the martyrs so the world can see em clear
Know they fighting through the fear
Already got rid of Bashir
Temporary transition from the same exact evil
We need a government made and led by the people

Revolution on the rise
You gotta see it's on the rise
And we looking for them better days
See the eyes of my people never hesitate
And we doing what we can
Uh yeah
I said we doing what we can
Uh yeah
I said we doing what we can
This the story of Sudan
I dedicate it to Sudan

30 years 30 years
Know the people sick and tired of that tyrant al-Bashir
I was with em in the streets
Throwing rocks at police
Bullets flying through the heat
Tear gas I couldn't breathe
Little cousin on his knees
People struggling to eat
Ain't the way it's supposed to be
I know freedom isn't free
Former British colony
Rising up like Mahdi
We don't want the same ruler from defense ministries
Said we need democracy
And the people gotta work
But we never gave up hope
Army don't want any smoke
Let the people go and vote
Thats the way for a change
Know we ousted two leaders
In the same damn day
Ain't nobody tryana wait
So I'm snatching that baton
I put my gas mask on
Gas lines too long
Storm the president's home
50 milli in the safe
Everybody grab a case
Make the sure the family ok
We tryna see some better days
Breaking down them barricades
Army got them weapons aimed
Know we going renegade
They put a curfew but they late
Leaders failed at their job
So disgusted with y'all
I mean astaqfarallah
How the president himself gonna run from the law?
Need a gun to his jaw
Can't ignore we saw (Nah, Nah)
Shoutout to every kandaka
Every mother Every father
Tryna build a better future
For our sons and our daughters

Revolution on the rise
You gotta see it's on the rise
And we looking for them better days
See the eyes of my people never hesitate
And we doing what we can
I said we doing what we can
I said we doing what we can
This the story of Sudan I dedicate it to Sudan
