Papistu ALEXiS - RiP to Chinedu

VERSE 1

Lotsa' people stood and watched
While Chinedu bled to death
Capturing his last moments
On their freakin' phones to them
He deserved to die
His dying wish was to speak with his Dad
Nobody replied him
Man what sorta' shii is that?!

Properties and cattle don dey get value pass human lives
I get gold chain and iPhone
..so I no get human rights?
You tryna' put me away
Cos' of some tattoo on my skin
Or some crazy on my jean
Now I'm dead are you happy?

Are you at peace?
Are you appeased
By my
Blood on your hands
No call for an ambulance
Now my
Blood's on the land
That you cops wanna stand on and succeed? Or complete
Your lives where it was demanded but
No justice
For me?
See my corpse on the ground! (Ground)
It could have been you or your friend
Or you niece or your dad.(dad)
With guns on the streets
They're taking us for a ride
Damn I don't understand (..stand)
Why most of y'all are busy
Posting one for the 'gram shii


*I did not do anything*

CHORUS

Things would stay the same
If our mouths don't open and talk
*Ah*  *haba*
(Don't open and talk)

*I'm under arrest why?! Why am I under arrest?*
*U dey, u dey speak English for there abi?
U dey speak English*

I gotta embrace the change
Before my mind get shot
(Before my mind get shot)
*Where u dey go? Come here!*
*I say you're under arrest*
*Gunshot!*


*Ahhh ah omo mi oo aah*
See
And as the time dey go o o
I go dey vibe dey go o o
(I go dey)

Ain't like you can't do nothing about it
(Ain't like we can't do)
It's just you won't do nothing about it
(It's just you won't do nothing about it.)

VERSE 2

Y'all don't wanna see your Brother climb up
Handshake with right
For your left hand

*We go waste you for here*

Knife as back up
You no dey see me say na Love
I no be mumu at all
I just want peace
And I'm tryna' pass a message across

You never see the kind of thing
Wey I dey see the politics
Involving these police *cocks gun*
Corruption in the streets
And politicians everywhere
Be making shii look like
We don't deserve a thing

Well actually we part of this
We cannot sit
And wait for someone else to come repair the wounds
Because they won't
Unless we would
Our future being destroyed in front of our eyes
And you bet it is the same insane design in the foundation of our humanity

And they keep praying
As if that's how you make the pain
Go away
I don't wanna stay the same
Feel like I'm battling raging waves
And I know one thing
*Won ti pa omo mi o aah ahhh yeh yeh*
Love is the only way

*Swaa*
Blike say Una dey mad abi *gunshots*
Dem dey kill us
Una dey post Sco Pa Tu ma na as if
Na till dem off your blood
Before eyes once abi
Maybe na that time you go understand how the matter be. Shii

*Yeehhh*

CHORUS

Things would stay the same
If our mouths don't open and talk
*Egba mi ooo*
(Don't open and talk)
I gotta embrace the change
Before my mind get shot
(Before my mind get shot
Eeh*

*Egbami ooo!*
And as the time dey go
I go dey vibe dey go
(I go dey)

Ain't like you can't do nothing about it
(Ain't like we can't do)
It's just you won't do nothing about it
(It's just you won't do nothing about it.)


CHORUS

Things would stay the same
If our mouths don't open and talk
(Don't open and talk)

I gotta embrace the change
Before my mind get shot
(Before my mind get shot

And as the time dey go
I go dey vibe dey go
(I go dey)

Ain't like you can't do nothing about it
(Ain't like we can't do)
It's just you won't do nothing about it
(It's just you won't do nothing about it.)

RIP TO THOSE THAT DIED IN PAIN
RIP TO THOSE THAT DIED IN VAIN
BLESS YOUR SOULS
HOPE Y'ALL IN A BETTER PLACE

*We have more churches and mosques than schools and hospitals in the country and that says a lot*
Majority prefer to pray about something to taking action about it*

Let's get our priorities straight
Educate the masses
Build more schools
Establish more hospitals
Create vocational schools
Let them learn trades
Empower them to create jobs for themselves
Let's rebuild this Nation

If Nigerians were educated enough to invest even half the amount of the energy they use to pray and put it to good use in taking action
I believe Nigeria will be better place

"Voice of Fizzy"

South Africans kill Nigerians. Czech Rep. pays Nigerians money to leave and never come back. Angola says it does not want Nigerians. Congo storms and takes over the Nigerian Embassy. Libya buys and sells Nigerians. Ghana persecutes and humiliates Nigerians
