Reading between the lines critically in his song 'they don't care about us one would realize that Michael was much more of a prophet as far as Nigeria is concerned.

Those greedy elites in PDP and APC give no damn about us. The war against insurgency is been fraudulently funded by some people in the corridor of power who stands to gain from the innocent blood shed.

According to the opening verse of the song,"We know the truth" about this grand conspiracy and we should speak in one accord that "enough is enough" to those in power

But "if Roosevelt (zik) was living, he won't let this be"

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, aggravation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Bang bang, shot dead
Everybody's gone mad
All I want to say is that
They don't really care about us
All I want to say is that
They don't really care about us

Beat me, hate me
You can never break me
Will me, thrill me
You can never kill me
Sue me, Sue me
Everybody do me
Kick me, kick me
Don't you black or white me
All I want to say is that
They don't really care about us
All I want to say is that
They don't really care about us

Tell me what has become of my life
I have a wife and two children who love me
I am the victim of police brutality, now
I'm tired of bein' the victim of hate
You're rapin' me of my pride oh, for God's sake
I look to heaven to fulfill its prophecy
Set me free

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Trepidation, speculation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Black man, black mail
Throw your brother in jail
All I want to say is that
They don't really care about us
All I want to say is that
They don't really care about us

Tell me what has become of my rights
Am I invisible because you ignore me?
Your proclamation promised me free liberty, now
I'm tired of bein' the victim of shame
They're throwing me in a class with a bad name
I can't believe this is the land from which I came
You know I do really hate to say it
The government don't want to see
But if Roosevelt was livin'
He wouldn't let this be, no, no

Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, speculation
Everybody litigation
Beat me, bash me
You can never trash me
Hit me, kick me
You can never get me
All I want to say is that
They don't really care about us
All I want to say is that
They don't really care about us

Some things in life they just don't want to see
But if Martin Luther was livin'
He wouldn't let this be, no, no
Skin head, dead head
Everybody gone bad
Situation, segregation
Everybody allegation
In the suite, on the news
Everybody dog food
Kick me, kick me
Don't you wrong or right me
All I want to say is that
They don't really care about us
All I want to say is that
They don't really care about us

Lol guess you right..... Oyo had been our watchword every since

Very applicable I'd say.
Nigeria which was a union of ethnic groups is now that of two strange bed fellows.. The political class and the masses.
The political class are like "Men from Mars" while the masses are "Women from Venus", two extremes, one very greedy and the other, too docile.
They really don't care about us.

Typical afonja and hypocrisy. They will talk about how evil and racist whites are, how bad Jews are; blah, blah, blah. But do you afonjas care about Igbos? You wanted them killed in South Africa but it backed fired. Instead, afonjas became the hunted. If you have sense, you will know that MJ was talking about Black Hebrews, not Black Africans. Black Hebrews are Biafrans, African Americans, Liberians, Southern Cameronians and Caribbean blacks only.
