Aṣa – Burn [LYRICS]

Don’t you see what I see?
Shey na Everyday we go dey live like this
This one day die, another day wake

Na wetin we dey face for this cold world
You don see where man dey trek from Oju elegba straight to Mile 2.
Sun dey shine and rain dey fall
But black man we gotta push am through
Maama
Walahi ta lai (Maama)
I no dey lie (Maama)
We gats go right (Maama)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah.
Ah. Woman dey live as nothing
Young man dey die like nothing
Students dey fall like chicken
Wow wow wow wow wow
Wow wow wow wow
Woman dey live as nothing
Young man dey die like nothing
Stoop on the floor like chicken
Wow wow wow wow wow
Wow wow wow wow
Don’t u see what i see
Everyday na so so fear of life
But not by me, i no fit trust
But who knows I might just be the next
But do people just dey act dumb
We can’t act which we know the youths at home
We still dey live the life of yesterday
While other things to know
Why my people just dey go slow
We can’t act which we know the youths at home
We still dey live the life of yesterday
While other things to know
