Show me that man who shall never see death
That man who shall never take a last breath
Even if he is the new methuselah
He can never live forever
For man is old enough for death
On the day of his birth

'Thou art dust' the preacher said
'And unto dust thou shalt return' the congregation concluded

So live your life every minute
Like you'll not see the hand of the clock makes the next movement

We are hungry
In our country
And helpless
In our states
Even when we have all it takes
To festival for years without break

While others had little or no natural resources
We remain the sources
For nations
To function without limitations
Yet we live painfully
While they live happily

While we go for peace keeping missions
In many nations
Our land remains
The site for blood rains
Cause by boko haram
And violent crimes

While we go for 'Made in China'
At the expense 'Made in Aba'
Without effort to uplift it to international standard
And make it our brand
We build other nations
As ours move towards extinction

While we yell
That our leaders make us live like we are in hell
We forgot that our duties for our country
Most had handled with levity

'A beta pas yu fo dis gam'
Can destroy our aim
'Mi an yu no de fo disam katigori'
Will destroy our story
If we fail to bury
Such fury

Though we are men of different faces
Coming together from different places
Men with different qualities
And abilities
Talented folks with different views
On different issues

But we need to get a better of these differences
For us to welcome success
We need to work as a team
To fulfil our dream

Yes individual skill thrills
But it's not enough to score the goals
We need to work with thesame notion
To get to our destination
