Atewa Forest ft. Akosua Hanson & Sister Deborah Lyrics

If I asked you to let me harvest your lungs for some gold would you do it?

Common sense tells me that you won't

So why are you letting them harvest the forests?

You do know that trees are our primary lungs right?

Right?

Common sense

No be common

To a common fool

U dey cut down

Trees den complain

Say weather no cool

Oxygen make tight

Not right

Sell wana birthright

For bauxite

No hope in sight

Trees in fright

Here comes blight

Fit see am from satelite

Earth set alight

President say mek we get a life

E no b funny how moni dey change situation

B4 e chop post e get different position

Wana mission?

Cease all emissions

Retro wishing no go save we from earth's retribution

We for save atiwa forest

Or we go die

If u save me

I will save u

For every dirty tree killing

Plant 33 seedlings

The forests need healing

Mine into yor feelings

Not the ground

Sounds profound

Pound for pound

The best all round

Mound of hound

And for the right amount

Deliver dem tied and bound

Dey jus wan fly n lounge

Expensive drinks get downed

Dey loosing track n count

Dey oozing stacked accounts

Voters get whack recounts

Evergreen burning brown
