lirik lagu bantu (crew) & lengualerta - state of emergency
[intro: bantu]
state of emergency
so so wahala eye dey red
where to turn when you’re filled with dread
who to trust when it’s all pretend
[verse 1: lengualerta]
mama africa ‘s calling
listen up, she’s roaring
don’t mess arround ‘cause time is running
from lagos to mexico a message is coming
hey! hora de sonar la alarma
pues la vida entera está bajo amenaza
dime dónde habrá quedado el alma
de quienes el pulso arrebatan
hey! еs un llamado de emergеncia
que se extravió la compasión y la clemencia
oye, ya se nos agota la paciencia
este es un llamado a tu consciencia
escúchalo!
[chorus: bantu]
state of emergency
man dey para eye dey red
where to turn when you’re filled with dread
who to trust when it’s all pretend
state of emergency
so so wahala eye dey red
where to turn when you’re filled with dread
who to trust when it’s all pretend
[verse 2: bantu]
the people are living in panic struggling everyday
they are begging and crying for mercy
praying hope wouldn’t slip away
the rich keep feasting and dividing
the poor languishing in suffering
while we hurt and turn on each other
they are getting away with murder
time to wise and realize
let’s join our forces to win the fight
its freedom or death with no regrets
unite to win and don’t you fret
[chorus: bantu]
state of emergency
man dey para eye dey red
where to turn when you’re filled with dread
who to trust when it’s all pretend
state of emergency
so so wahala eye dey red
where to turn when you’re filled with dread
who to trust when it’s all pretend
[bridge: bantu]
oh oh oh oh oh oh problem overload e o
oh oh oh oh oh oh problem overload e o
[chorus: bantu]
state of emergency
man dey para eye dey red
where to turn when you’re filled with dread
who to trust when it’s all pretend
state of emergency
so so wahala eye dey red
where to turn when you’re filled with dread
who to trust when it’s all pretend
[outro: bantu]
oh oh oh oh oh oh problem overload e o
as the pressure mounts
and we find ourselves trapped in the vicious cycle
of cynicism and anger
the marginalised must organise
for that remains the only viable option
our only answer
