Lyrics:
We just dey die for nothing, too much disease for this land
Every day we go dey pray, God help us, save us
Too much money pass my eyes, all natures do na smell am
Man mus work and just (get) survive but illusions, plenty
Chorus
Ko mo de ma sheru lojo iya ni iya ni oh oh
Ke mi ma lubata fe gbe mi oh oh o iya ni, iya ti o da
Ai mon iye yan lati she gbe iya ni, iya ni oh oh
Ai mon iye yan tio rishe she iya ni, iya ti o da oh oh, I ya ni, iya ti o da
Vs 2
Brothers they kill each other, hatred dey fly out of people
Coz the justice flow like water, in the now distrustful nation
Brother Sisters make a way come, and see the way this worl an turn around
Wagin war nobe watin we want, coz peace na watin we need
Brother Sisters make a way come, and see the way this worl an turn around
Wagin war nobe watin we want, coz peace na watin we need
Chorus
Ko mo de ma sheru lojo iya ni iya ni oh oh
Ke mi ma lubata fe gbe mi oh oh o iya ni, iya ti o da
Ai mon iye yan lanti she gbe iya ni, iya ni oh oh
Ai mon iye yan ti o rishe she iya ni, iya ni oh oh oh oh
Make them see you now, make them see you now
Ade hear, Ade hear oh, Asa Ade here oh
I say Ade hear
Sister ade hear, ade hear, everybody say yeah, yeah,
Brother, waitin na dey talk for now, na serious business, you know
Serious business dey for town, serious business it pass my power
I say it pass my power, eh, eh, it pass my power, kezia tell them make them hear oh
To ba she bo she fe si mi orun a wo 2x
Ko le ya ko ya, ko le ya ko ya
Ko le do guun, ko do gun 2x
Ojo pa ewe igoko 4x
Ko le yak o ya, to ba leke yak o ya
(Ojo pa ewe igoko)
People, people hurry, you hear what I'm saying to you now
(Ojo pa ewe igoko) - Zábava
Those guitar strings are killing me. Asa is more than just a talent, she is a talentsssssssssssssssss.
Yoruba people you are my people oh...ancestors! thanks Asa for bringing so much emotions out of this language and from your music!
music is a universal language.....love the Yoruba part, beautiful language....love from Ghana...love your music Asa!!!!! great collaboration
There's this something about Asa and her style; something soft and powerful, something concrete yet sublime, something beautiful and alluring... She's stolen my heart away...
most beautiful song in the world.
I just listened to this on a cold July morning in 2021. Still a beautiful song..
she's by far the best female musician of this generation
I'm listening to this in 2019. I've always loved Asa. I went as far as printing her pictures in my room I'm definitely praying to marry a Yoruba
Don't need to look through the prism of tribe, just see the beauty of humans
Goose bumps from beginning to end! ASA you make me soo proud to be yoruba! This is beautiful.
ASA is the definition of an impeccable finesse in music
2019/20 anyone? 😅
Asa is definitely an incredible talent. She elevates the beauty of her cultural experience and identity, inspired by the depth and richness of her Yoruba worldview. This is an undying song, capturing the reality of life that stare everyone of us in the face. Its a reflection that will continue to keep memories of the past and the projection into the future busy as we search meaning for our present. Thumb up for you mam...
the most beautiful singer i have had this century. when i first heard her i wondered if i would find out who she was and at last i came upon you again watching african tv. Hey i am overjoyed and of course watching and listening to your video and tunes is magnificent!!
the main message is that loads of people are suffering. for example a child hawking in the streets is bad, is suffering. doing menial jobs for your mates is bad. loads of people don't have jobs, that's bad. those are some of the lines in the chorus
she's phenomenal! and thanks for the wonderful comments.
Asa please stop making me cry the emotional feelings is too much for me..... i just can not hold my tearz
Même en 2023 cette chanson transperce toujours mon âme merci ASA et Kesiah vous êtes juste magistrate dans cette interprétation les ancêtres étaient présents
Eeeeeeeah na Waoh Keziah...you are incredible when you sing...which kind feeling be this now?? i just love the two of u on this music.
Wonderfull

@niggapap: It mean if a child is been enslave in a public market space, it is suffering.
A little Background may help:
In some of this places child labor is such a common practice that it is easy to simply overlook it as part of daily life.
hope this helps
