If una fit kill person, una fit chop am?
If una fit chop am, una fit wake am?
If una fit wake am, una fit create am?
However much you get, you not be God
Dem dey waka like say not be one die
The same die for poor and rich alike
Alaye vibrating like Olorun Oba
Forgetting that all arrived in the nude
Ignoring that all shall return the same
Regardless of whether they be shrouded
Irrelevant if they be food for fishes, crabs
Mortal flesh, immortal spirits, all travelers
Do I know who you are? Oh yes I do
Decadent, amoral, myopic, narcissistic
You are human, and a base one at that
That is who you are, so yes I know
The question is; do you know who you are?
That is what you’re about to find
From Mascot to the yet unnamed
There’s a Bolt driver living in all the victims
And there’s a Mascot in all the slavers
Ruiners all, united by their crass impunity
Nicos above the laws, they bear no account
Members all, of the ruinous ruining crass
Have you seen their paradises in hell?
Majestic villas in the midst of ghettos
Rolls Royce in the shalaga on roads unbuilt
Impoverished rich men, laden with baubles
Creme de la Creme and kings of excrement
Sybaritic hollowed lives, emptied of value
Olowo kan la’rin oto’si mefa; equally poor
The rich amongst the impoverished, all one
Wealth taken from the commonwealth
Assures the poverty of all plus the thieves
Poverty of private wealth, loud and visible
Monuments built of myopia and to greed
