[Intro]
Na today we wake, na today we dey hustle for we land; hand for road, eye for tomorrow, hope dey still we heart.
[Verse 1]
For Naija street, e sweet and e sour like gala with pepper,
Market mama dey shout, price rise like mountain, pockets light.
Under the sun, motor sound full ground, generator hum dey call,
Pikin dey learn from chalk and mud, dream big pass passport.
We dey carry load for head, we dey run small hope for long road,
Light go, light disappear, but faith hold for we chest like road.
[Pre-Chorus]
We see the waka of leaders, promises fly like kites,
But the bridge still dey cracked, we still find road through nights.
[Chorus]
We go dey push, we go dey rise, from the dust we dey ignite,
Hope no be for sale, na for everybody we go fight.
Naija with love, we fit bend fate into light,
If we hold hands strong, tomorrow go be bright.
[Verse 2]
For borehole and queue, children dey dream small schools,
Teachers tire, still dey teach with kind heart and tools.
Bank queue long, na savings we keep for future gate,
Farmers toil tireless, rain or sun, they plant the state.
Clerks and artisans, market women, drivers in the line,
We dey stitch resilience with every small design.
[Pre-Chorus]
We dey hear the choir of youth with vision and plan,
Dem want change, dem stand tall, no shake, no bend.
[Chorus]
We go dey push, we go dey rise, from the dust we dey ignite,
Hope no be for sale, na for everybody we go fight.
Naija with love, we fit bend fate into light,
If we hold hands strong, tomorrow go be bright.
[Bridge]
Ego still dey heavy, corruption like a bad script,
But we dey write new pages with every honest tip.
Community, church, grower, like river we connect,
From village to city, collective dream we protect.
[Chorus]
We go dey push, we go dey rise, from the dust we dey ignite,
Hope no be for sale, na for everybody we go fight.
Naija with love, we fit bend fate into light,
If we hold hands strong, tomorrow go be bright.
[Outro]
So we go keep naija shining, with patience we dey build,
With every small win, future na our field.
If we stay true, if we stay brave, we go find the way,
Naija for you, Naija for me, a better day.
