Make Our Obi-Edient Pay

Make our obi-edient pay 
I wish this big plans 
Are not just for your political elevation sir
On another expense of the people
Despite we see you as the best 
Candidate 
I hope you are for real 
Cos once I felt we are closer 
To have a different change 
But when I remember you are a politician
I keep my view alert 
We have seen alot come and go 
With same words of change 
We are just tired of another 
Long suffering
The youth are tired to bleed 
So hear our cry's or destroy us the more 

Make our obi-edient pay
Am a Nigeria youth 
Am one of your son sir 
I urge you to look around you sir 
I hope you see the sorrows and agony 
Of the people
I wish you could hear their cry's 
For just a mere better life 
Our nation is dying in poverty
It is so very obvious sir 
This is part of the reason 
Am writing tonight 
I need no sleep cos I cant catch one 
So soon with all the disaster
We bleed in Nigeria
How can a Nigeria youth like me sleep deep 
I feel for my people
I hate always to see this endless
Suffering of the people of Nigeria and africa
Sir be truthful when you get their 
Place your eternity on this call 
Show the real change when the time comes 
Prove your worth
Please be the prayer answer 
If finally you win 
Sir me no fit shout oh 

A tribute to Peter obi
Nigeria presidential candidate
