Title : Judgment Day
Theme: Justice, Violence & Moral Reckoning
Focus: The longing for accountability in a society overwhelmed by violence, fear, and official silence.
Reflection Question: When justice fails in the present, how does belief in future accountability help people endure fear today?

Every night gunshots for village road
Bad people enter town, nobody know
Dem come kidnap, dem come kill
Leave families empty, bury dem will

Mama lose child, papa lose hope
Police no show, dem use prayer cope
Bus stop empty, school close gate
Another mass burial for yesterday

Every morning na same bad news
Another killing for evening news
Leaders quiet, nobody talk
Evil dey move, e dey waka free

People dey fear road, dey fear night
You no know whose turn he go reach tonight
Dem carry children, demand ransom
Sometimes money pay, body no return

Justice slow, suffering fast
Every week new name dey join list
Soldiers tired, civilians weak
Everybody just dey try survive

We ask question, nobody answer
Who protect poor? who defend farmer?
When crime loud pass government voice
Na innocent people dey pay the price

How many must die?
Before things go change
How many tears we go cry?
Before justice wake

Silence no be peace
Fear no be safety
Wickedness dey record
And e go answer one day


This no be tribe, this no be faith
Na crime, na greed, na human mistake
If you plan evil for night
Morning go expose you to light

From small boy to big man chair
Everybody go face truth there
No title fit stop the call
When judgment time reach for all

We no want revenge or more blood
We want safety, peace, and food
We want children reach home alive
We want our country survive

Judgment Day go come
No gun go stop am
For every life taken by force
Judgment Day go come

Judgment Day go come
No money fit settle am
For every crime wey pass unpunished
Judgment Day go come

Title: Long Road to Nowhere
Theme: Youth, Unemployment & Invisible Struggle
Focus: The quiet exhaustion of a life spent moving without progress, where effort continues despite repeated disappointment and social neglect.

Morning reach before peace enter my head,
I wash face, look mirror, no smile come.
Same cloth, same shoe wey don tear,
Same pocket wey never get answer.

Mama ask me, “Any work today?”
I say “I dey try.”
But she know say that word don lose meaning.

I commot house because staying inside dey hurt,
No money, no food, no talk.
Sun don come out, hot, strong,
E no care who chop or who no chop.

I dey waka because sitting down dey worse,
One road, another road,
Just to pass time.

People dey rush go work, dem get reason,
I no get where I dey go.
Security dey look me somehow,
Because no job don turn person to problem.

Girl wey say she go wait don go,
She say love no fit pay bill.
I no blame am,
Reality hard pass promise.

Certificate dey house,
Nobody dey ask for am.
Every office say *“come back,”*
Coming back don tire my leg.

My head dey full of thought,
Why nothing dey work?
I pray, I wait, I try,
Still nothing.

Street full shout, everybody dey sell something,
But nobody dey buy my trouble.
Preacher dey promise miracle,
Tomorrow go reach, nothing go change.

I stand for bus stop,
Bus come, money no dey.
Driver shout, people enter,
I remain, money no dey.

Sometimes bad thought cross my mind,
But mama face hold me back.
No be bravery,
Na fear of disgrace.

I no dey look for big money,
Just small work make life start.
Make person call my name,
Make I fit say “I dey useful.”

I no dey lazy.
I no dey mad.
Life just hard,
And e no dey explain itself.

Evening come, nothing gain,
Another day don go.
Tomorrow dey wait like question,
I no get answer.

Sleep no give rest,
Waking no give hope.
I dey live day by day,
Because I never see choice.

Na long road to nowhere I dey waka so,
I dey move because I never know where to go.
Tears don finish, voice don low,
But breath still dey, so I dey go.

Na long road to nowhere, hear my cry,
No be joke, na real life.
If today no change anything for me,
Make tomorrow remember say I try.
