Lyrics

They don't care about us Everybody wants to get a piece Of the national cake (talking) They don't care about us Everybody wants to get a piece Of the national cake But I swear to God im a boss Till the lord revisits All we really got is us What's the source They don't care about us Everybody wants to get a piece Of the national cake But I swear to God im a boss Till the lord revisits All we really got is us Compare my nations wealth to a cake Politicians get enough Its just to cut slices Take turns pass the knife around All in the name of power sharing Deep inside no one is caring About the poverty stricken percentage Who craze change To make their lives better Three square meals That's a joke Every day gets tougher than oak For how long will the garri soak Lucky if you got sugar Perhaps groundnut from three days back Look what we lack Oh take a look at what we are Really asking for Clean water, food Plus a roof over How can man stay sober with this Adjust to this Sick and tired of writing lines Against the system Cus like Fela They just might cuff your wrists For speaking up against the status quo Lay low like its warfare The pain is getting harder to bear Cowards Stay playing rear like donkey tails Ill bliss lead the peace form Facing aso rock Whaa They don't care about us Everybody wants to get a piece Of the national cake But I swear to God im a boss Till the lord revisits All we really got is us What's the source They don't care about us Everybody wants to get a piece Of the national cake But I swear to God im a boss Till the lord revisits All we really got is us Every day I see a different kind of luxury car On the same road where people hawked gala For years Unemployment rate saddening Everybody planning hard on traveling To God knows where I know cats who left for Asia Without the slightest clue On how to survive ****** for greener pastures I know dudes in South America Germany and Spain Living like criminals On the run Dodging passports Trying to make your way up Because the nation in a state Its like ellen jo once said Its critical the rich bask in the affluence Villas, cribs, between lekki and FCT Leaders with kids schooling abroad Wife touring the world Bank account swole up ********************* Trying to scrape enough To get on the bus From allen junction to CMS Envelopes filled with CVs Stuck on ****** Next to me some dude in his ride Watching tv And looking over fat as hell Government official with the escort They loot us and buy police protection Where is the lords intervention What They don't care about us Everybody wants to get a piece Of the national cake But I swear to God im a boss Till the lord revisits All we really got is us What's the source They don't care about us Everybody wants to get a piece Of the national cake But I swear to God im a boss Till the lord revisits All we really got is us Same faces, same hands Pulling the strings From behind the curtains Puppet masters running the show Either you balling or you dying The government still shit Dey still lying Get rich or die trying Folks sighing So broke they wishing for death Abeg, young kids now live on the net Throwing scam mails across the globe Proposing dodgy ventures Some accept But tell em fuck off The streets are with poverty *********** Ngor youths stills fighting over water School and shelter Oil companies held hostage Installations blown up Militant youths they own up Cus they fucking up the habitat With very minimal compensation Its all confrontation In Chinua Achebe's words Nigerians biggest problem is bad leadership What, lets make a change men They don't care about us Everybody wants to get a piece Of the national cake But I swear to God im a boss Till the lord revisits All we really got is us What's the source They don't care about us Everybody wants to get a piece Of the national cake But I swear to God im a boss Till the lord revisits All we really got is us
