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
