We Didn'T Care Nigerian Citizens

The attitude that means great scare And birth sufferings we couldn't bear Thank God he's sick, we pray he lacks care Centuries of "didn't care" land us in misery we now wear We didn't care if the well was not well "Grant us a token to dine" the town's well is too expensive to make well We didn't care if farmlands became bushy for we Stood at the mercy of crude that make us fat while slumbering We didn't care to explore our bounty till crude lost face among peers We didn't care if our products were messy white groceries were on spots for cheap barter We didn't care to snuggle our culture before westernization put us in oceanic soup Our heritage is unmaintained because we didn't care We didn't care to say NO till the we are made to have no choice Public enjoyment in belly of few men because we didn't care We didn't care from the start now our care means nothing, our tears finds no hope We are where we are because WE DIDN'T CARE
