Description
[Intro – Spoken with Vibe]
Yooo!
This na Lorenzo aka Papa Yamtey
The Memosapudica of our time!
This one na reality song — for all the youths wey dey face life head-on
---
[Verse 1]
We don suffer, we don bleed
Living nomadic just to succeed
No help, no chance, no open gate
If you no connect, then na suffering straight
Dem give job based on fambul name
Even if you smart, dem go shame your game
Youth dem dey waste like rain on zinc
Used like tool, then thrown in sink
No scholarship to raise we hope
Just dey hang like cloth for rope
Leaders wan see we frustration
Dem prefer we fall than build we nation
---
[Chorus]
Na the cry of the youths (eh-eh)
Talent dey waste, dem no give truth
Promise and fail na normal day
But we still dey stand, we go find our way
Cry of the youths (yea yea)
Dem want make we drown but we go sail
Our future dey bright, we go shine like sun
Destiny fit delay but e no go run
---
[Verse 2]
Community labour na we dey do
But when big contract land — na for fambul crew
Injustice full, no one dey talk
Dem dey smile white, but their heart dey dark
We no dey fold, we no dey fear
We go work hard, we go dry the tear
Big up the ones wey start gold mine
If no be that, some youth for don die
Kush bin wan wipe all the youth dem off
Because we feel left out, we no dey tough
After WASSCE, book don done
But na frustration full we zone
---
[Bridge – Soft spoken, emotional vibe]
Even with the requirements for college
We still dey float — we no dey manage
The weaker ones dey swim across
But the strong dey use boat — life dey toss
Some of we na graduates, but now we dey rot
Na cabbage we turn — see wetin we got
We dey shame to people we start with once
Dem don climb, we still dey balance
---
[Chorus – Repeat with Emotion]
Na the cry of the youths (eh-eh)
Talent dey waste, dem no give truth
Promise and fail na normal day
But we still dey stand, we go find our way
Cry of the youths (yea yea)
Dem want make we drown but we go sail
Our future dey bright, we go shine like sun
Destiny fit delay but e no go run
---
[Outro – Hopeful tone]
We no go give up, no matter the test
We go fight hard, we go give our best
We go rise, we go pull up the shame
We go write our story, we go change the game
This na your boy — Lorenzo aka Papa Yamtey
To all my Binkolo youths, make we no tire
Big up again to G-Lite, Samuel Turay, Abendigo J, Jay Z,
And all the real ones wey dey inspire
SMS, and all my people dem
Make dem know say…
The cry of the youths go turn anthem.
Shout out to my fellow Safroko youths especially Binkolo.
God go see we through.
To you the limba legend G-lite, wae dae show love to we de youths respect.
Street runner SMS u dae dae? Nor give up bro you go make life easy. And to me love ones Dem out there I feel the pain too.
Samuel Turay of masiyanday bar, respect. Papa Yamtey the youths den voice.
