Mathew 10.34

And the Lord

Pull out his sword

And his word

Put us to war

And his word

Put us to war

We dey on our own

Na him Them carry come

School, court okpai and okoro

Church, insults

Bribery and corruption

Stranger don follow us dey drag land

Now now na force to behave like them

For their hand alone we fit get employment

Like play like play them dey flog children

If they speak their language

Everything slowly foreign

If you want to make it

Do your best to fake it

This is how we lost the last authority

Within my vicinity

Some violent attack on my spirituality

Father Joshua give out a prophesy

To his loyal diocese

The lord ask him to

Burn down all the native temples

And local worship places

The only god allowed is his own

The one ordained by Rome

You know the one they wrote

You must hang it in your home

He proclaim

They got the Igwe baptised, on their side

So they get ready to strike

They pick date

Agreed and it's time to get the village

Rid of evil

The village priestess is the target

Serving juju is her only crime

After service they went straight

To Ezewanyi shrine

They accuse her of all the deaths and evil

No more natural death

Everything bad they blame on their ancestors

So they march from the church through the

Village town square

Singing loud songs

With ending of halleluiah

Carrying weapons and big bibles

United by the blood of Mr

One and only Mr. Christer

Anything on the way they will conquer

As they reach and they

Surrender Ezewanyi shrine

Drag her out and desecrated her temple

Beat her up

As she shout and

Cry out to the gods

Oh

Ogbaghara

Aru Eme

Mathew 10.34

10. 34

And the Lord

Pull out his sword

And his word

Put us to war

And his word

Put us to war

Villagers saw them

They try to intervene but in vain

They march around the house with

Loud prayer and hand clapping

Then father Joshua the district bishop

Went in to her hut

With two other prayer warriors

She try to resist but they overpowered her

Put kerosene and olive oil

Around her bush compound

Then they burn the village Oracle down

Oh

Oh oh

When boys hear the thing

When boys hear the thing

Boys say not again

Not again

Say boys go rass

The boys go rass

Ahh

Say this one na part one

There will be part two

Them go hear from the boys

The boys go rass

The boys go rise

The gods will rise

The gods go rise

Ahhhh
