The State of the Nation: We Cannot Go Back

We gotten to the cross road
And we have come thus far on this journey
And we cannot just assume all is well
And going from day to day with the poor man’s solagan
“E go better” when will it get better

If you and I did not rise up to do something now
I tell you the future will curse us all
Because we have opportunity starring at us on our face
Yet we cast a deaf ear to it ignoring and spilling it out of our mouth
As we all seal up our lips in fear of not been prosecuted and thrown into jail

Look behind the bridge is burn down
The road that leads to the other side
Never exist anymore we win or we die
We cannot go back
We must make sure the reach conquest

There is no better time than now
Now is the time to wake up and move on
And move on with life and forge ahead
To bring redemption getting close to emancipation
Yes emancipation of things liberating the fellow compatriot

This is the time to build our nation
For so long we have been on that spot
The spot of setback and complaining
We must not complain anymore
But seek a proffer solution a way out of all of these

That troubles our land
The state of the nation: we cannot go back
We must arise to the national calls
For justice and equity
There is no better time than now

You do something in your own small corner
I do something in my own small corner
Before we know the light has shine overcoming darkness
Now is the best time to move on and march on to victory
To bear the touch of glory we mustn’t get tired nor back off
Am persuaded and believing that this country
Will rise again I believe this is the season
For Nigeria to rise and stand for what she is known for
The Giant of Africa
The state of the nation: we must not go back
