The lion is still alive and the dog claims the king in jungle
because I'm not roaring does that mean I'm a clown?
I deserved the crown but my gentility has revealed my secret
my silence has murdered the loudness of my voice
who deserved to be crowned has been failed
and the suégbé(the dullard one) has been crowned.
Due to my refusal to grease palm the kingmakers
and so what? I must hijack what's due to me.
Tell the people of Alapa,they have stepped on the cobra's tail
they have incurred the wrath of the snake,
they have stepped on the scorpion,it must stung them
they have murdered sleep,they shall not rest.
Inform them I have asked the witches what shall I offer as sacrifice
I was told told:baskets of pepper,gourds of honey,
gallon of palm oil,I offered all all and I Wa told to eat crow
tell my enemies they shall not rest when the garrulous birds go asleep.
I shall hijack the peace and freedom sought by my ancestors
I shall enslave my fears and pains in the cell of my papers
I have loaded the pen and it's ready to shoot
until the scorpion dies before its tail touch the ground.
you must give me what's due to me,I must be crowded
or else the sky will pour wrath and the land will cry.
Can I say I'm back?
No,when the justice starts to murder law,new Aduagba will be born.
still coming back
