Dem go erase reprogram our memory
Remix, repackage Blackman history
Reinvent another yẹ̀yẹ́* theory
All to keep us in perpetual slavery
Dem go erase reprogram our memory
Remix, repackage Blackman history
Reinvent another yẹ̀yẹ́ theory
All to keep us in perpetual slavery
Òyìnbó don do we plenty wayo
Dem go use coded language to chop us dey go
Dem go call us World Music
Join us with Asia, mix am with India, add in Colombia
Yepa, their colonial agenda never finish yet
Now na Afrobeats with capital "S"
Wey dem wan use destroy, break and suppress
Our greatness
Dem go erase reprogram our memory
Remix repackage Blackman history
Reinvent another yẹ̀yẹ́ theory
All to keep us in perpetual slavery
Dem go erase reprogram our memory
Remix repackage Blackman history
Reinvent another yẹ̀yẹ́ theory
All to keep us in perpetual slavery
Turn television – na yẹ̀yẹ́ theory (so so show man)
Turn radio- na yẹ̀yẹ́ theory (so so noise)
I read newspaper- na yẹ̀yẹ́ theory (that one na fake news)
Social media gan ńkọ́? – na yẹ̀yẹ́ theory (that one na fake die)
I talk to senators - yẹ̀yẹ́ theory (bribe, obviously na bribe o)
I talk to the governors- yẹ̀yẹ́ theory
(security vote, ihn say him want him security vote)
I go ministry - yẹ̀yẹ́ theory (contractually)
I go presidency - yẹ̀yẹ́ theory
(excellency is not around he's in London for some treatment)
Wọ́n ń ṣe yàla', wọn se yo'lo'
Wọ́n ń ṣe yàla', wọn se yo'lo'
Wọ́n ń ṣe yàla', wọn se yo'lo'

So I didn't want to participate in the madness of commercialism
I didn't want to participate in the madness of gimmicks
I do not want African music to belong to the fashion
Where music comes and goes
Cause where African music goes it stays!
