national cake - illbliss lyrics

national cake lyrics
they don’t care about us
everybody wants to get a piece
of the national cake
(talking)
they don’t care about us
everybody wants to get a piece
of the national cake
but i swear to god im a boss
till the lord revisits
all we really got is us
what’s the source
they don’t care about us
everybody wants to get a piece
of the national cake
but i swear to god im a boss
till the lord revisits
all we really got is us
compare my nations wealth to a cake
politicians get enough
its just to cut slices
take turns pass the knife around
all in the name of power sharing
deep inside no one is caring
about the poverty stricken percentage
who craze change
to make their lives better
three square meals
that’s a joke
every day gets tougher than oak
for how long will the garri soak
lucky if you got sugar
perhaps groundnut from three days back
look what we lack
oh take a look at what we are
really asking for
clean water, food
plus a roof over
how can man stay sober with this
adjust to this
sick and tired of writing lines
against the system
cus like fela
they just might cuff your wrists
for speaking up against the status quo
lay low like its warfare
the pain is getting harder to bear
cowards
stay playing rear like donkey tails
ill bliss lead the peace form
facing aso rock
whaa
they don’t care about us
everybody wants to get a piece
of the national cake
but i swear to god im a boss
till the lord revisits
all we really got is us
what’s the source
they don’t care about us
everybody wants to get a piece
of the national cake
but i swear to god im a boss
till the lord revisits
all we really got is us
every day i see a different kind of luxury car
on the same road where people hawked gala
for years
unemployment rate saddening
everybody planning hard on traveling
to god knows where
i know cats who left for asia
without the slightest clue
on how to survive
****** for greener pastures
i know dudes in south america
germany and spain
living like criminals
on the run
dodging passports
trying to make your way up
because the nation in a state
its like ellen jo once said
its critical the rich bask in the affluence
villas, cribs, between lekki and fct
leaders with kids schooling abroad
wife touring the world
bank account swole up
*********************
trying to scr*pe enough
to get on the bus
from allen junction to cms
envelopes filled with cvs
stuck on ******
next to me some dude in his ride
watching tv
and looking over fat as h*ll
government official with the escort
they loot us and buy police protection
where is the lords intervention
what
they don’t care about us
everybody wants to get a piece
of the national cake
but i swear to god im a boss
till the lord revisits
all we really got is us
what’s the source
they don’t care about us
everybody wants to get a piece
of the national cake
but i swear to god im a boss
till the lord revisits
all we really got is us
same faces, same hands
pulling the strings
from behind the curtains
puppet masters running the show
either you balling or you dying
the government still sh*t
dey still lying
get rich or die trying
folks sighing
so broke they wishing for death
abeg, young kids now live on the net
throwing scam mails across the globe
proposing dodgy ventures
some accept
but tell em f*ck off
the streets are with poverty
***********
ngor youths stills fighting over water
school and shelter
oil companies held hostage
installations blown up
militant youths they own up
cus they f*cking up the habitat
with very minimal compensation
its all confrontation
in chinua achebe’s words
nigerians biggest problem is bad leadership
what, lets make a change men
they don’t care about us
everybody wants to get a piece
of the national cake
but i swear to god im a boss
till the lord revisits
all we really got is us
what’s the source
they don’t care about us
everybody wants to get a piece
of the national cake
but i swear to god im a boss
till the lord revisits
all we really got is us
