We Are All Nigerian

Hey! You! Why are you demolishing our scenery? Turning spellbound city to old monuments Why are you causing unforgettable trouble? Making such a big disruption and war Homes are destitute, in great disrepair Why did you carouse the emblem of hate Hey! You! I'm talking to you! Why did you caress racism so much? Why did you adjacent the life of people to death house We are all Nigerian why making us as a stepping stone Why did you take malice as your precious job? I'm talking to you! Yes you! Why are you so corrupt? Embezzlement of all sorts Why are you so full of vileness? Making life discomfort to your own citizen We are all Nigerian Hey! I'm talking to you! Yes you! Your conscience should baffled your throat Why did you connive in the dark? Point dagger to your own kin? Hey! You dictator why did you take despot has your habit Why are you so reluctant to austerity in the country? Why are you beckoning to tumult? Hey! You, I'm talking to you Why did you eat off the country profuse? Like termite eat the wood Making nation suffocating You are an ultra-vulture Why are you famishing us? Why can’t we be what we want to be? We are all Nigeria
