Felly Bandy - Japa Mentality
текст песни

I dedicate this one to all Nigerians in the diaspora
That left this country because of bad governance
And me man call it, japa mentality

Nigeria why oh
Your people all of them running away
To foreign lands oh
Searching for the greenery pasture eeh

Nigerian leaders
Why can't you all fix this country once
And bring sanity
To the all face of life eeh

Nigeria is blessed oh
With so many resources
That can go round
To the every Nigerian eeh

Nigerian leaders
Think about the people eeh
People are suffering
Running for murder eeh

A dema japa japa
Japa
People wanna japa japa
Japa japa
Dema japa japa
Japa
People wanna japa japa
Japa japa

The cost of living
Rising so high
So many people
Finding it difficult to survive eeh

The politicians
Looting our treasury
Living in affluence
While the people languishing eeh

The better brains oh
That we have in this country
Have all fled oh
Running to foreign lands eeh

Because of why oh
Government makes this country so
Unpalatable
For the people inhabitant eeh

If we can have oh
Power steady in this country
It gonna good oh
To make things start to run eeh

People are killed oh
Everywhere in this country
Our leaders doing nothing tangible eeh

A dema japa japa
Japa
People wanna japa japa
Japa japa
Dema japa japa
Japa
People wanna japa japa
Japa japa

The level of
Japa mentality
Among our youths oh
So alarming people running away eeeh

Running away
Sometimes to a place unknown
What the future
Holds for them over there eeh

Their only interest oh
Is to leave this country
Without minding whatever
Dema gonna face out there eeh

So many people
Thinking leaving this country
Because of failure
Resulting from our leaders eeh

A dema japa japa
Japa
People wanna japa japa
Japa japa
Dema japa japa
Japa
People wanna japa japa
Japa japa

A dema japa
Everybody wanna japa
Japa to foreign lands oh
Running away from this country

A dema feeling
That this country is nose-diving
About to hit the rock oh
People dema running away

If to everyone
Should leave this country
Who gonna build this country
If everybody runs away eeh

Nigerian leaders
Try to fix this country
Eschew selfishness oh
And think about the people eeh

There is hunger
Suffering and hardship
Hitting the people so hard
Everywhere in this country

Our naira
Losing value every day
They said it is in the face of dollars
Why should dollars control naira

Electoral fraud
Rocking my country
Our votes no longer count oh
Election manipulation

Nigeria unity
I tell you is in disguise
No true federalism
Why can't we love one another eeh

A dema japa japa
Japa
People wanna japa japa
Japa japa
A dema japa japa
Japa
People wanna japa japa
Japa japa

A dema japa japa
Japa
People wanna japa japa
Japa japa
