Lineage of Warriors
A deep pink color tinged with orange like that of a flamingo
walking with our feet in shallow water
As I gazed upon the sunlight, dazed and bewildered
Squeezing the life out of us we believed them just like Adam and Eve
were cruelty taking over like cancer
Asking us to put on a mask and loose who we are
Manipulating our psycho
Playing tricks on us
Terrorising our souls
Hijacking our thoughts
Waving the flag singing the national anthem but they kept on firing the chili bullets mixed with ginger, cumin and oregano
They mow down a number of lives
Seeing the blood of my brothers and sisters smeared to my face
The trait of extreme cruelty
What a brutal barbarous savage act
The color of our flag painted with the blood of innocent people
They have being treated in a cruel and savage manner
My mind is still on replay trying to find answers
We are in agony of hopeless grief
We're griped by fear of failure and rejection
20.10.20 is the dressing code
Venue Lekkitollgate
As they danced and rejoice by sipping the blood of young Nigerians
What they asked for was just a new Nigeria
The mistakes of our past will not hold us
Surrounded by demons on our left and angels on our right
You can't mute us
We're on a rescue mission to save our fatherland
