Lyrics

[male

vocals] (

Soft,

building

rhythmic

percussion)

They

say

the

wind

carries

secrets

of

the

soil.

They

say

the

trees

remember

the

footsteps

of

the

fallen.

Oluwa

King,

we

speak

for

those

silenced.

For

the

ones

whose

dreams

were

cut

short

in

the

heat

of

the

day.

He

walked

into

the

bush,

a

humble

man

with

a

heavy

load

Looking

for

diesel,

looking

for

a

way

to

stay

on

the

road

No

job

in

the

city,

no

coin

in

his

trembling

hand

Just

trying

to

feed

his

kin,

a

stranger

in

his

own

land

He

saw

the

sun

dipping

low,

a

shadow

crossed

his

path

A

sudden

flash

of

light,

a

moment

of

unholy

wrath

They

took

his

breath

away,

left

his

spirit

in

the

dust

Betraying

the

oath

of

service,

betraying

the

public

trust.

Do

you

remember

the

names,

do

you

remember

the

faces?

Lost

in

the

silence

of

these

hollowed-out

places

For

the

mothers

still

crying,

for

the

brothers

in

chains

For

the

young

ones

who

perished,

we

carry

their

pains

Oluwa

King,

let

the

voice

rise

high

We

will

not

forget

until

the

day

we

die.

Then

the

youth

came

together,

with

questions

and

a

plea

Asking

for

the

justice

that

we

all

deserve

to

see

But

the

answer

was

lead,

and

the

answer

was

a

cage

They

wrote

their

final

chapter

on

a

cold

and

bloodied

page

Many

are

behind

bars,

many

have

vanished

in

the

night

Stolen

from

their

families,

kept

away

from

the

light

But

the

fire

is

burning,

it’

s

glowing

in

the

dark

They

can

kill

the

vessel,

but

they

cannot

kill

the

spark.

Do

you

remember

the

names,

do

you

remember

the

faces?

Lost

in

the

silence

of

these

hollowed-out

places

For

the

mothers

still

crying,

for

the

brothers

in

chains

For

the

young

ones

who

perished,

we

carry

their

pains

Oluwa

King,

let

the

voice

rise

high

We

will

not

forget

until

the

day

we

die.

Can

you

feel

the

vibration

of

the

earth

below?

It’

s

the

pulse

of

the

brave

that

will

continue

to

grow

We

are

the

memory,

we

are

the

living

song

We

fight

for

the

truth

where

the

victims

belong

No

more

silence,

no

more

fear

in

our

eyes

We

build

a

new

nation

underneath

the

wide

skies.

Do

you

remember

the

names,

do

you

remember

the

faces?

Lost

in

the

silence

of

these

hollowed-out

places

For

the

mothers

still

crying,

for

the

brothers

in

chains

For

the

young

ones

who

perished,

we

carry

their

pains

Oluwa

King,

let

the

voice

rise

high

We

will

not

forget

until

the

day

we

die.

We

remember

you.

Every

tear

shed,

every

dream

deferred.

Oluwa

King,

the

voice

of

the

silenced.

Let

the

world

hear,

let

the

world

change.

Rest

in

power,

rest

in

light. (
