Lyrics

[male

vocals] (

Gentle

acoustic

guitar

swells,

a

steady

mid-tempo

drum

groove

builds

slowly)

Oga

Kolo…

yeah,

yeah.

Chibok,

we

remember.

We

listen

to

the

cry

of

the

mothers.

Bring

them

home.

Mama

dey

cry

for

her

daughter,

sitting

by

the

kitchen

light

Papa

dey

wait

by

the

heavy

door,

staring

out

into

the

night

Years

don

pass

like

the

desert

wind,

but

the

memories

remain

They

still

dey

knock

upon

their

heart,

a

quiet

rhythm

of

the

pain

Classroom

empty,

books

are

dusty,

dreams

are

waiting

on

the

shelf

Young

girls

with

stories

yet

untold,

just

a

shadows

of

their

self

But

we

no

go

forget

their

name,

we

no

go

let

the

fire

die

We

no

go

let

the

world

forget,

the

reason

why

the

mothers

cry

Oga

Kolo,

make

you

raise

your

voice,

let

the

whole

world

hear

our

choice

Bring

them

home,

bring

them

back

to

where

the

morning

light

begins

Oga

Kolo,

keep

the

memory,

keep

the

spirit

soaring

high

Bring

them

home,

bring

them

back,

beneath

the

vast

Nigerian

sky

So

many

seasons

turned

to

dust,

so

many

birthdays

passed

in

fear

We

keep

the

candle

burning

bright,

so

they

know

that

we

are

near

They

were

only

looking

for

the

light,

looking

for

a

way

to

grow

Now

the

silence

is

a

heavy

weight,

that

only

broken

spirits

know

But

hope

is

like

the

river

flow,

it

finds

a

path

through

rocky

ground

We

searching

every

village

track,

until

the

lost

and

found

are

found

Nigeria,

hear

our

collective

call,

a

nation

standing

side

by

side

For

every

child

deserves

the

day,

where

truth

and

safety

will

abide

Oga

Kolo,

make

you

raise

your

voice,

let

the

whole

world

hear

our

choice

Bring

them

home,

bring

them

back

to

where

the

morning

light

begins

Oga

Kolo,

keep

the

memory,

keep

the

spirit

soaring

high

Bring

them

home,

bring

them

back,

beneath

the

vast

Nigerian

sky

Can

you

hear

the

echo? (

Can

you

hear

it?)

Can

you

feel

the

longing? (

In

the

wind?)

We

are

the

voice

for

those

who

wait

We

are

the

key

to

open

up

the

gate

No

more

silence,

no

more

tears

We

ending

all

these

wasted

years

Oga

Kolo,

make

you

raise

your

voice,

let

the

whole

world

hear

our

choice

Bring

them

home,

bring

them

back

to

where

the

morning

light

begins

Oga

Kolo,

keep

the

memory,

keep

the

spirit

soaring

high

Bring

them

home,

bring

them

back,

beneath

the

vast

Nigerian

sky

Bring

them

home.

Yeah,

we

remember.

Chibok,

your

daughters

are

not

forgotten.

Bring

them

home. (

Fading

out

with

a

soft

guitar

melody)
