Lyrics

[male vocals] Yeah,

yeah

Oh,

Nigeria,

my

motherland

My

motherland

Who

takes

care

of

the

poor?

Who

takes

care

of

the

poor?

You

cannot

be

sick

and

still

be

poor

When

sickness

knocks

upon

your

door

Who

will

pay

the

hospital

bill?

Who

will

stand

when

the

money

finish?

Mama

is

crying,

papa

is

weary

The

vision

for

the

future

is

getting

blurry

Empty

pockets

and

a

hollow

chest

Searching

for

peace

but

finding

no

rest

The

streets

are

cold

even

under

the

sun

Counting

the

battles

that

we

haven't

won

Who

takes

care

of

the

poor?

When

the

wolves

are

knocking

at

the

door

Who

carries

the

weight

when

the

back

is

weak?

When

the

future

feels

like

a

mountain

peak

Oh,

tell

me,

who

takes

care

of

the

poor?

When

thereโ€™

s

nothing

left

inside

the

store

I

see

the

brother

sitting

by

the

gate

Accepting

the

hand

of

a

cruel

fate

Heโ€™

s

got

a

talent,

heโ€™

s

got

a

dream

But

heโ€™

s

drowning

in

a

silent

stream

No

ladder

to

climb,

no

hand

to

hold

His

story

remains

forever

untold

We

build

the

mansions

and

pave

the

lane

But

forget

the

ones

living

in

the

rain

How

can

we

sleep

in

a

house

of

gold

While

the

innocent

are

growing

old?

Who

takes

care

of

the

poor?

When

the

wolves

are

knocking

at

the

door

Who

carries

the

weight

when

the

back

is

weak?

When

the

future

feels

like

a

mountain

peak

Oh,

tell

me,

who

takes

care

of

the

poor?

When

thereโ€™

s

nothing

left

inside

the

store

Itโ€™

s

a

heavy

burden,

a

hollow

sound

Watching

the

hope

falling

to

the

ground

Where

is

the

mercy?

Where

is

the

grace?

Looking

for

love

in

a

crowded

space

Maybe

the

answer

lies

in

the

hand

Of

every

soul

across

this

land

Donโ€™

t

turn

away

when

you

see

the

pain

Donโ€™

t

let

your

empathy

go

down

the

drain

Small

acts

of

kindness,

a

shift

in

the

tide

Thereโ€™

s

nowhere

for

us

to

run

or

to

hide

If

we

are

brothers,

then

let

us

show

Let

the

seed

of

a

better

harvest

grow

Rise

up

together,

break

down

the

wall

Let

us

catch

the

ones

destined

to

fall

Who

takes

care

of

the

poor?

When

the

wolves

are

knocking

at

the

door

Who

carries

the

weight

when

the

back

is

weak?

When

the

future

feels

like

a

mountain

peak

Oh,

tell

me,

who

takes

care

of

the

poor?

When

thereโ€™

s

nothing

left

inside

the

store

Who

takes

care

of

the

poor?

My

motherland,

can

we

do

more?

Yeah,

yeah

Just

a

little

more

love

Just

a

little

more

light

For

the

poor

Oh,

yeah
