State Of Emergency

State of emergency

So so wahala eye dey red (BANTU Crew, aha, Megaloh)

Where to turn when you're filled with dread (zu viel Wahala)

Who to trust when it's all pretend (Let's go)

Alle sind am Limit, allen reicht's

Denn es reicht schon lang nicht zu mehr als nur Reis

Der Kleine schreit

Keine Zeit Kind zu sein, muss überleben

Die an der Macht entscheiden über Leben

Schon sehr früh die Familie supporten

Krank vor Sorge, wie soll er sie versorgen?

So wird ein guter Schüler zu 'nem Jäger

Tauscht die Bücher mit 'ner 9MM

Beten für mehr bevor jeder Tag beginnt

Zukunft verbaut, weil die Gegenwart bestimmt

Realität, wie lässt sie sich ändern?

Echte Gangster sitzen fett in den Ämtern, damn

State of emergency

Man dey para eye dey red

Where to turn when you're filled with dread

Who to trust when it's all pretend

State of emergency

So so wahala eye dey red

Where to turn when you're filled with dread

Who to trust when it's all pretend

The people are living in panic struggling everyday

They are begging and crying for mercy

Praying hope wouldn't slip away

The rich keep feasting and dividing

The poor languishing in suffering

While we hurt and turn on each other

They are getting away with murder

Time to wise and realize

Let's join our forces to win the fight

Its freedom or death with no regrets

Unite to win and don't you fret

As the pressure mounts (oh oh)

And we find ourselves trapped in the vicious cycle (oh oh oh)

Of cynicism and anger (Problem overload e o)

The marginalised must organise (Oh)

For that remains the only viable option (oh oh oh oh oh)

Our only answer (problem overload e o)
