Streets (feat. Ogranya, Moss & Alpha Ojini)

Person piss off

Pop him pistol on the police like

Plenty pick-up

No more linking up on the streets like

Print your papers

Omo push go overseas like

Praises due to the politicians and priests

Matter done cast nationwide

Only God can save our lives

We all must pay the price

Because the streets

A revolution is here at long last

Rest in power to all fallen comrades

To tell the world the truth is our one task

We won't stop till the killers are unmasked

Detective Fash we saw the guns blasts

So take award for best actor, congrats

Shebi they say Naija no Dey Chop last

But o boy e don tey wey we don cast

Israel Adesanya when I drop a note

Where we go from here, look I dunno

All I know is polithieves gotta go

Streets are hungry, feed the beast you provoked

If you been asleep, stay forever woke

Keep on fighting when we get 'em by the ropes

Knock 'em out with a PVC and a vote

Yeah, it's time to vote

'Cause it doesn't take a data analyst

To know they're gonna try to change the narratives

They might use the raiding of the palliatives

Or tribalism to induce paralysis

Fuck a genie, you ain't no Aladdin kid

If you really want it, gotta grab the shit

2023, let's get it cracking bitch

Because the streets is dangerous

The streets ain't safe for us

Don't make your way in if you don't know your way out

The streets is dangerous

The streets is dangerous

You see, these streets is dangerous

The streets ain't safe for us

Don't make your way in if you don't know your way out

The streets is dangerous

The streets is dangerous

Dangerous

Yeah Olu

Everything comes full circle

That's how I still come face-to-face with hurdles

As a young man I struggled with virtues

I used to see the world through my

Black and white lenses

But then I came 'round to my senses

Black gets cracked and the white still off

Like it came from Virgil

And if you wan understand the system

Just look at that time during curfew

We tried to stand up to police

I always thought I'd be brave when the time came

But then I got cold in my feet

And no more ice in our veins

'Cause government steady just

Dey drop heat

And on that mehn

I rest my case

Now the lifestyle is stay home, go out, make bread

And barely show face

Because the streets is dangerous

The streets ain't safe for us

Don't make your way in if you don't know your way out

The streets is dangerous

The streets is dangerous

(Ojini)

You see, these streets

I'm posting tweets, why I'm not on the road is

You hit the streets and get hit with them hoses

Feel like a coward, or a cow that's being pulled

No clue who the person on the other end of the rope is

When you have more than one Moses

To fight a Pharaoh who's rubbing shoulders

With Mephistopheles himself

Planting discord and harvesting wealth

Inventing new ways to die in the west

Can't let these cannibals rest

Listen up, may I suggest

Bickering about feminists and Bitcoin is a sure way to failing this test

That's what they want you to do

They know we only care about Twitter trends

They see weapons when they see the youth

You only win when you recognize that the change begins with you

One time for the fallen soldiers

And shame on the other soldiers

Pointing and shooting at innocent citizens

I don't know what's colder

The fact you did it or the fact that you can sleep at night

Sixty-one and we continue to fight

At this rate I might just japa

You can't blame me 'cause

Because the streets is dangerous

The streets ain't safe for us

Don't make your way in if you don't know your way out

The streets is dangerous

The streets is dangerous

You see, these streets is dangerous

The streets ain't safe for us

Don't make your way in if you don't know your way out

The streets is dangerous

The streets is dangerous

Dangerous

Person piss off

Pop him pistol on the police

Plenty pick-up

No more linking up on the streets
