Ba wasa

See Where I’m from,people no Dey play
They always frown,they hardly smile their face
Cause the hardships that they facing no be play

Now can you blame them
Can you blame them
Rice na 30k!
Garri na 50 bucks!
For a single cup!
You con say make them
Make them open teeth

E no fit be
Everyday na brand new bill
You don Dey reason plenty things
Plenty things
Ontop of plenty things

How you wan go work’
Pikin never chop’
Rent is almost due’
School fees on the way’
Your wife don get belle’
Still con Dey owe person’
How you take Dey smile’
Problem nor Dey finish!
You don Dey inside bus’
Conductor don Dey shout’
Passenger for side’
Done Dey smell again’
You don late for work’
Still con pass your bus top’
Before salary come’
Money don finish!

And still survive can only be God’s grace
