Sapa Dey My Country

Intro

E choke! Sapa don burst the country!

Wahala! Nobody dey laugh again!

Verse 1

Sapa dey my country, no be small thing

Light go off, generator dey sing

Belly empty but we still dey push

Naija life na pure struggle and rush

Petrol price don scatter the nation

Father and mother dey do calculation

School fees don turn to luxury goods

We dey hustle hard in these neighbourhood

Okada rider, vulcanizer, trader

Everybody suffer but we no surrender

E don reach the point we dey laugh at pain

Because crying go tire person's brain, abi?

Chorus

Sapa dey my country, e no go finish

Sapa dey my country, we go manage am

Sapa dey my country, na life na dat

But we rise up, we no go quit, no cap!

Sapa dey my country, e no go finish

Sapa dey my country, we go manage am

Verse 2

Nepa don collect light since last week

Money wey we earn go pay for diesel bleak

Transport go bite half of the wage

Dangote rice done turn to expensive cage

Young girls dey turn to these sugar daddy game

Young boys dey rob just to change their name

But mama still dey pray at church every Sunday

Saying "God no sleep, he go judge one day"

We dey crack jokes when we suppose to cry

We dey dance am out when we suppose to sigh

That's the Nigerian spirit, that's our power

We dey stand tall even in our darkest hour

Chorus

Sapa dey my country, e no go finish

Sapa dey my country, we go manage am

Sapa dey my country, na life na dat

But we rise up, we no go quit, no cap!

Sapa dey my country, e no go finish

Sapa dey my country, we go manage am

Outro

Sapa dey, but we dey! Naija people, we no dey bow!

E don do jare! We go manage am together!

Hallelujah for small bread and water!

Wahala!
