this is my pledge - ahmanny lyrics

[refrain]
i pledge to nigeria my country
to be faithful, loyal and honest
to serve her with all my strength, all my strength
make this life worth living, make this life worth living
give it all i have, give it all my best

[verse 1]
this is terrible
we knew this from day one
that convertible, the parties, the women, the house
you took it from everyone
my apologies if i make yall uncomfortable
what? what? f–ck that
i am not apologising
i demand a front row seat at your funeral
how could you tell us that this is god’s work?
hold still, let me tell you about the liars here
i can bear it, so i fight
cos i’d rather f–cking die
‘fore i let it get too far
this is mine
everything that you have got
you stole it, you lied when you asked us to give you our trust, now we did, so we made you
we put you in office, and this is to be our payment?
it’s unfortunate
mama nkechi is in pain, with her unborn child
but she can’t afford to pay the doc, and so she bears it
she can’t even call her husband, to tell him its time
so she cries and she screams in the back of her apartment
hoping someone will come
someone with a heart, but the whole neighbourhood hears
they dont give a f–ck
something’s wrong with this world, i guess
there’s no limit to the greed, everybody wanting theirs
no faith, just hate
love is a commodity no one can afford
hours and hours of us working in the sun
yet we take it all back to the church and the government
the pastors will tell you its a sin, you will go to h-ll, dont hold back what the lord has brought, for the man of god
there’s more liars in the house of god, than all the agberos in the city of lagos
now i dont wanna be the naysayer, but the truth’s gotta be told
now who says, who dares and who prays for the end of this life, i got
mood swings, and you can throw in a couple of kong fu tricks
but if the shoe fits, then pretty please, put it all down on that f-cking pulpit
give in to these liars, give in to these so-called messiahs
who will take all you got, then
sleep with your wives then
sleep with your daughters, then
blame it on the devil, but
the truth of the matter is
they are full of sh-t

[verse 2]
this is something for the books
like jaja of opobo, everybody here is suffering
fuel price is over high
food price is at its peak
the priest and the pastors, the politicians taking all we eat
yet we give em applause and
run to the church, five times in a week
giving offerings
letting the man of god become fat from your suffering
they masquerade, teaching you a faith that they dont believe
all they want is all the money, you’re willing to give
so keep it
do something for your peeps
these n–gas in the street
need jobs, need a home
need a meaning in their lives
all that money could be used to make 9ja
newsworthy for a few
seconds in a long time of boos you
could be the start of something new
who says we are doomed
who says we are never getting out of this abyss
is a fool, is a liar, who deserves to get impeached
its half-time in this game
we are not yet done, we are coming with a bang
but if only we are one
one voice, one face, one creed, one truth
one nation with the world at its feet, true
so be brave my friend, take strength from the legacy we had from the start
those men who are dead so you and i could be free
they fought, they lost but they never gave it up
i demand that we stand for what is right
you get the chance, then you put away your pride
get down in the dirt, fight for the future of 9ja with all your heart
combined together, all of our strength will be enough
there’s more to this life than
just staying alive
we need to grow, with no limit in the sky
no mountain too great, we would always get around
whole world is right here, let em f–king just observe
no going back, no
let your anger just explode
put fires in the street, whole nation
burn it all down, let us start it all afresh
new values, new beliefs
we would bleed but nothing good is ever free
so are you for real?
do you think this is how we end?
or do you wanna build?
if you want it new, then let’s build it

i pledge to nigeria my country
