Nigeria You Fail Us
Our leader failed to deliver
Loss guide in their night watch.
Share the national cakes within their friends
Lock the poor outside the city to eat the dungs of cows and pigs
Walk majestical with their AGBADA,
Pride within their reach.
Ask us to pray,
who will pray? When they have curse
the holy ground.
Use media to speak of thousands deeds,
The poor speak of nothing done,
Oh! who will deliver us from this slavery
Only the rich win election:
Bags of salt and rice in the air
Money fly in air like plane moment of election speak
Promises and fail.
You failed us all.
