Masta Can't you hear our children crying? Why doesn't it break your heart Can't you see our people dying? When did this world get so dark? We're not perfect but we're trying We all need to play a part 'Cause thing we never change Always stay the same Until we do something about it Talk and do We need to stop talking about it We must talk and do Why don't you do something Yoo! This is not a song, it's a statement About a state of a very lost generation How can we let our little boys become rapist? And how can we let all of our love turn into hatrеd? In the State we see casеs of racism White cops killing us 'cause we have black faces And in Africa, I don't know where to begin The same kind of murder, the same colour of skin And we don't care to use our platform to make a difference We prefer to drag each other on Twitter so we can trend (Kaii) We filter all our Instagram pictures just to pretend Like we're happy True happiness only comes from within I don't watch the news 'cause it's all bad Different days same hashtags Different names, different victims, same flashbacks It don't concern you May your children never have to say #MeToo (Amen!) They ask me why am so consumed with community service It's cause my community is hurting My community is dirty No one bats an eyelid 'Cause everyone thinks it's someone else's problem to fix And everyone prefer not to dive into politics So why we upset that the system is so full of shit? The nation that we need is our responsibility The country we wanna see, starts with you and me Do something about it Talk and do We need to just stop talking about it We must talk and do Why don't you do something about it Talk and do We need to stop talking about it We must talk and do Why don't you do something Where is the love? Where is the patience? Urhobo, Igbo, Idoma What is the difference? E don dey too much Talking looting and voilence Repeating the same thing, if you check am na madness We need a solution Time for some action Too much talku talku, committee no dey function The answer we dey find E dey inside me and you Now it's time for all of us to Talk and Do yea Comon! Talking no dey change anything This na the time for action Talking no dey solve anything (Yea Timi Dakolo) Do something (Let's go) Timi Dakolo Say Talking no dey change anything This na the time for action Talking no dey solve anything Do something This place na home oo No place like home oo We no go fit blame the leaders of Yesterday Talking no dey solve anything Do something Talking no dey change anything This na the time for action Talking no dey solve anything Do something This na our country ye ehn Talking no dey solve anything, do something (No, no, no) Make a difference ehn yea Make a difference, Action! Do something, Yea! Talking no dey change anything This na the time for action (Waje, Give dem!) Talking no dey solve anything Do something, Yea! Talking no dey change anything This na the time for action Talking no dey solve anything Do something Do something about it! (Seun Kuti) Do something Do something oo
