(Talking

rhythm
fades
in)
Oya,

This
one
for
the
green
and
the
white
For
the
people,
for
the
land,
for
the
soul
Yeah,
we
rise,
no
matter
the
weather
I
travel
far,
from
the
east
to
the
west
Across
the
ocean,
searching
for
the
best
But
nowhere
feels
like
the
ground
I
know
My
naija
spirit,
watch
the
fire
grow
From
Lagos
traffic
to
the
desert
sand
There’
s
magic
hidden
in
this
blessed
land
We
keep
on
pushing,
yeah
we
stand
so
tall
Through
every
season,
we
don't
ever
fall
Oh,
my
country,
my
beloved
home
God’
s
own
people,
wherever
we
roam
Nigeria,
you’
re
the
pride
of
the
sun
Our
story
shining,
yeah

are
the
one
Oh,
my
country,
the
pride
of
the
earth
We
celebrate
the
value
of
our
birth
We
see
the
challenges,
we
feel
the
weight
But
we
are
masters
of
our
own
fate
With
every
heartbeat,
we
sing
a
song
This
is
the
place
where
we
all
belong
Great
heritage,
from
the
roots
to
the
sky
See
how
we
sparkle,
see
how
we
fly
No
dulling
spirit,
we
have
got
the
flow
Taking
the
world
everywhere
that
we
go
Oh,
my
country,
my
beloved
home
God’
s
own
people,
wherever
we
roam
Nigeria,

re
the
pride
of
the
sun
Our
story
shining,
yeah
we
are
the
one
Oh,
my
country,
the
pride
of
the
earth
We
celebrate
the
value
of
our
birth
Though
the
road
may
be
long
and
the
hill
may
be
steep
There’
s
a
promise
of
greatness
that
we’
re
gonna
keep
Stronger
together,
through
the
heat
and
the
rain
Rising
in
power,
breaking
every
chain (
Ehen!
See
gobe,
but
we
overcome!)
Oh,
