Once upon a time
There was peace
In the Southern part of Sudan
Junubin dearly loved each other
Back then
There was harmony before chaos began
My people were cruising in one van
Drivin' off the dictatorial government
Of Sudan
People knew best how to use their guns
Together they fought to liberate their sons
Anyanya 1, 2
And the Red Army fought
In the jungle, in the deserts
We had strong teams
Doing whatever was assigned
To produce victory
Some came back, some did not
They defended us everywhere
Some saw combat; some rode a desk
They all did their share
For a little payment
And a little glory
When SPLA won, that was a f*ckin' home run
CPA was signed Dr. John did it
The signature in Naivasha Dr. John did it
Junubin foundation stone
Y'all know he laid it
He got all of us screaming
Like yes we made it
Until one sad day
There was blood on the stars
And sad news from the skies
Even the angels cried
Before he crashed to earth
Sadly Junubin couldn't bear his death
But he was never ever coming back
RIP late father
We just had to push through
With what you started
So General Salva Kiir took over
Luckily, he was another good driver
He pushed on till July 2011
When Junubin independence was finally even
We jubilated once again
Hoping that we would all make it to heaven
There was peace and harmony within
There was love and unity still
There were patriotic citizens still
How I wish changes didn't come in
On 15th December, 2013
The love of power
Overcame the power of love
Until now
Our Motherland is badly off
Where's the mess from
Is it from SKM
Is it from RMT or TDG
Is it from JW or MML
Is it from TKG or NDN
Could it be from AT or KMJ
Is it you or us
Who's behind all these
Damn we need JGM for a positive change
May Dr. John come back to life
To drive South Sudan way back to light
I've been quite, just tryna live life
But my heart hurts, I gotta break the silence
Knock knock
Who's there
Dear Lord it's me again
On my knees crying in pain
All that fight, all in vain
I'm kneeling, praying for change
There's millions of bad things
Crossing our lanes
I am just a college kid with a pen in hand
Fighting with a lot of demons
Hot as hell
Almost knockin' me off
Shit I'm hurt
An arrow pierced my heart
Escaping this moment is hard
Maybe I am falling apart
Life ain't science, it's art
Dealing with plans is hard
Going through pains, I'm hurt
I'm begging these rats in my yard
Please, press that button
I want it all to restart
Yeah
I am lonely my earth is not rotating
Dark moments my sun is not shining
Hungry vultures above my surrounding
Million arrows already surrounding
I just can't figure out who's shooting
Or why unknown gunmen is doing
But I really understand I'm dying
I look up to the flag still flying
And sadly whisper a prayer in my language
Nhialic käcë piɔ̈u në wuɔɔk
Nhialic käcë piɔ̈u në kɔc ku
I am a citizen
But South Sudan yïn yɔŋ ɣa
Yïn nyiɛc ku yïn kuc ɣa
Yïn cie diɛɛr ë kë nɛ̈k ɣa
Anɔŋ wɛ̈t cath në yomic
Maybe it's you killing me slowly
Seriously, you are being bad to me
Tell me honestly are you not robbing me
Oil is taken within
Gold is taken
Poor projects, no benefit
Apologies Kings
Allow me to ask
You wanna be billionaires or something
Your wives need million dollars or something
You wanna pay bills in Dubai or something
You wanna pay rents in heaven or something
Invest a pound please do it for the future
Junub athɔ̈ŋ tïŋ piɛɛth cï muony cën piɔ̈u thiaak
From riches to rags, acïn të thiääk ke të thiääk
My heart hurts
RIP Tricia Cee
RIP Mantani
RIP Skizzy bro I've missed you already
Rest In peace Garang YG he was one good nigga
RIP y'all unforgettable soldiers
Young kings dying in the streets so bad
Lord protect who's left and watch their steps
Attention Mr. Leader
Poverty and death were not designed for us
Thought you'd always stand out to cover us
Your security remember that you promised us
And now the whole thing is changed
Freedom in South Sudan isn't really free
We often pay a price to keep our liberty
May Dr. John come back to life
To drive South Sudan way back to light
I've been quite, just tryna live life
But my heart hurts, I gotta break the silence
It's time to say it yeah
Our freedom fighters are gone
Dollar sign chasers are crowned
Innocent people are drowned
In a blood filled pool
Somebody please, give Dr. John a phone call
I can't breathe tears all over my face
I can't believe greed all over the place
I can't eat I'm concerned, it's a big task
I can't sleep I'm just tryna finish this race
Did you know
The rich and greedy fly here and there
Did you know
The poor and needy die night and day
Kings are helplessly watching this play
Your highness
You'll go through the same I swear
Fly to UK die there
Nigga this shit ain't fair
And we ain't begging for care
We just need repairs
So Inu
The leaders got no families to lose
Their boys and girls are safe abroad
They done turned my sweet home into a f*ckin' war zone
We don't wanna die young
Give all of us some guns
I'm tired of gunshots
I don't like this temple run
I'm talkin' about it
I'm not doin' no love song
Close that chapter
I need a good one for my son
Junubin don't know the power
In the word citizen
I swear y'all don't know the power
In the words spoken
Give me answers
I got one or two questions
Did you ever ask
Why the unknown gunmen are unknown
Did you ask
Why they don't kill these leading goons
Why they kill for a penny and skip tycoons
Kings wanna kill us
Just stop being foolish
May Dr. John come back to life
To drive South Sudan way back to light
I've been quite, just tryna live life
But my heart hurts, I gotta break the silence
I won't die silent
The victimized we won't die silent
We should safe us, we won't die silent
Republic of South Sudan
We won't stop singing
As long as misleaders are still signing
Yeah My heart hurts
