Black Soup

Black soup We are dark enough to breath a flesh air In this wild mans world Flames are never a new news On our wild south west Nigeria The more the new days we see The tougher the higher man be Pollution defines his existence And this existence is killing our lungs I told you all we are dark enough To breath a flesh air Yet some business moguls are more Wilder than a deadly vampire Our oil is now our destruction Our resources is now our killer Only because we live among The wild man deals They can't stop polluting And we can't stop them sooner Yet we keep feeding our lungs with the Black soup Black soup I hear them say save the world Am sure they forgotten Africa I guess we either use what we got properly Or we continue in poverty There is no other way There is no better ideology Now who will be bold enough To stand against our deformers How many are able to see beyond our circumstances Cos we need this kinds of mind To face this black dark era We are not calling for war We are only calling for survival Who is our friend Who is a friend to Africa Let them help save mother land Cos everyday we keep feeding our Children's Lungs with the Black soup
