1957 Lyrics

In the land of the blind let the one eye see

Land of the blind the one eyed man king

Truth themma hide ebe lies them preach

Poor man die while the rich man feast

Suit and tie dey disguise them thieves

Robbing the land for the royalty

This ones for the ghetto

This one for the streets

This one for the ghetto

This ones for the streets

Ugh

Bebia me firi no people no dey make am

Anibre nti sake off greed see we no fit make am

Black man nante free nso bebia ode ka

Ohia bekum bibi nni nia me hu na meka

Bebia mefiri no the poor poorer the rich richer

The Sick sicker, the girls all turn gold diggers

While the ministers themma pot bellies dey get bigger

In the slums ɛkɔm ne bɛ kum broke nigga

Bebia me firi no all black rich lives matter

The poor lives no dey matter watch the blood splatter

Bebiaa mefiri no yɛ Di bɔne hyɛ kwesi broni but the truth be say black man dey kill ein own brother

Bebia mefiri no krono nkoaa mpanyinfoɔ nka nokorɛ no

New policy new jive afie de yabrɛ mo

Ghanafoɔ yadeda we for stay woke

Yɛse yɛte sika so but we dey stay broke

Bebia me firi no monkey dey work wey baboon dey chop

Bebia me firi no Popi dey sweat wey kidis dey hung

Bebiaa mefiri no degree we get but we no fit job

Protocol before you get then somebody sort

Flag no starte with red cause Ghanafoɔ we dey bleed

Yellow for wealth but ye hia wonna grass no be green

Ghana hard black stars all dey over seas

Cause ein motherland feeling like the belly of the beast

Bebia me firi no people make it just to leave it

Wonna doctors all dey up I can't believe this look

Bebia mefiri all the scammers turn to preachers

Nyamesom abɛ yɛ business all these niggas want deceive us

Come my side chale come see how we living

Come my side wonna Hero's be the villains

We dey hustle for crumbs leave the bread for politicians

Mpanyinfuo no chilli while we stuck in these conditions

Holla at Kwame Nkrumah I'm ready for independence

Fa me kɔ 57,cause his right here dey feel like freedom for peasants

Serving poverty sentence

Parliament full of serpents

Corruption be the venom ugh

This one for my people this one for my people

Shine your eyes chale you for see the evil

This one for the streets this one for the ghetto

We see them all them be villains

They ain't fucking heros

Every 4 years ntrɔ ne empty promises

Future of my people that sht be bigger than politics

Sɛ wo to wani de whɛ ɛka yɛ de yiii

No independence my nigga we just be free
