The Cost of Nigeria Governance
The Cost of Nigeria governance
I remember the crys of the youth
I remember the agony of our sisters
I remember how we die so young
I remember the poverty on our streets
I remember yes I remember
I remember the ugly jungle justice
I remember the poor ghettos
I remember the police brutalities
I remember yes I remember
I remember our suffering mother
I remember our sick fathers
I remember the works and no pay
I remember the empty hospitals
I remember the single prostituting mother's
I remember yes I remember
The cost of Nigeria governance
I remember the bad roads
I remember the corruption
I remember the lies and deceit
I remember what they promised us
I remember yes I remember
I remember how they were close to us at the election period
I remember they are easy to see
I remember now that they are now cover
With dark tinted glasses
I remember now they are so busy
That our right must wait
I remember yes I remember
I remember the sick children
With no money for treatment
I remember how our school are
Closed cos they didn't pay our teachers
I remember yes I remember
I remember how we are killed
On every protest
I remember the young gone so soon
Just for standing up for there right
I remember our bleeding mother's
I remember the childs on the street
Yes I can't forget
Yes I can't forget
Cos Is not easy to forget
The cost of Nigeria governance
