Anthony Okotie - R.E.D Lyrics

My eye don Red
Say my eye don Red

Obob make I give you flows don't mean to impose on you
Young man from the south side I no go fit pose for queue
Them say this na Buhari regime no pizza no dough for you
E mean say the money no dey please don't think that we'll wait for a few...
For a few minutes...
Dawg...
When my own brothers feeling empty hungry for a taste of that red ting
They con dey follow up with the refnol contemplating flows slightly vexing
I no go fit check them...
Abi make my own brothers dey check me?
No fit throw bone for these mandem...
B you never see wolf wen dey find meat that's what they be
Backwards
Our moves led us backwards
Back to where I think they parked us
Then we pull't it in reverse
Now we all moving backwards
Now my country moving backwards
He called it a backwards society
Then our leaders tried to lie for peace
Please don't come up here and lie to me

The waka for money don worse
My eye don Red
And they don sack my padi from work
He eye don Red
My former girl don go dey reason Olosho
Her eye don Red
The Igbo men no con dey see all their boat oh
Their eye don Red
The waka for money don worse
My eye don Red
And they don sack my padi from work
He eye don Red
My former girl don go dey reason Olosho
Her eye don Red
The Igbo men no con dey see all their boat oh
Their eye don Red

My people say that you must always keep up with the pace
Fall or slow down then you get trampled die out the race
When na life be the matter them no go remember your face
Them go leave you make you reason shey na we dey carry the faith
Never leave it with the snake
The devil comes in different shapes
You've probably dinned him at your place wait
Never really knew why we never had a choice to be born into such a bloody place
Was met here with the faith
They warned me wicked men conspire in covens just to take your cake
Just beat em with your faith in God
Make sure every night before the bed you always pray
For mercy protection forgiveness
But more important thank the lord for all his endless grace
I met em with the faith
Always met em with the faith
Fought the demons fought the wraith
Death could come in different ways
At some point I lost my way
In the battle lost my faith
I took a year off just to find it man
No be small see the race for the blindness man
If you seen what I seen you go fall
I been stuck up in the mud no be small
My guy no be small
Yeah my guy no be small
Neck deep in the mud
Eyes bloody from the war
Ain't trippin got my core
They can never take my core
Keep the faith nothing more
Shores red with the blood
Pray the lord keep us all
Eyes bloody from the war
Eyes bloody from the war
My eye don Red

The waka for money don worse
My eye don Red
And they don sack my padi from work
He eye don Red
My former girl don go dey reason Olosho
Her eye don Red
The Igbo men no con dey see all their boat oh
Their eye don Red
The waka for money don worse
My eye don Red
And they don sack my padi from work
He eye don Red
My former girl don go dey reason Olosho
Her eye don Red
The Igbo men no con dey see all their boat oh
Their eye don Red

Man I can't even fathom it
I said man that I can't even fathom it
The things wen people don dey do for money really kinda sad bruh I cannot imagine it
They don dey carry my people
All their waka so deceitful
I don dey see am for the south side where these men, women, kids die in vein for a profit it's evil
How far you gotta fall
Where a man takes a knife and then cuts his brother for his blood
Then you take his heart and his kidneys and bury the man all eviscerated in the mud
I know that you struggled with that
I'll never be able to pull a Kane on my brother
And as for you hunters
If you tryna take my hustle I swear I'm gonna put you under
My eye don Red
Say my eye don red
My eye don red
Say my eye don red
