P-Square - Stand Up lyrics

E no be as e be before eh
E been dey sweet like sugarcane oh
My brother everything don change oh
E don change oh e don spoil eh (eh ah)
No mind them no mind them no mind them
Put your hands up now (hands inna the air)
My sister
Make we stand up now (hands inna the air)
Because everything don change oh
(hands inna the air) e don change oh
E don spoil eh (hands inna the air)
No mind them no mind them
No mind them eh, eh

Here comes one and two
Suffering and smiling na for me and you
Nobody cares see number three and four
Take a look at the poll
What them are push to the wall
You see them poll for number five and six
And seven and eight


Them just dey miscalculate
Instead of make them relate
Them go sit down dey debate
On who get the cake
And the people don tire to dey wait
See them they no wan stop the fighting
See them, them are biting and criticizing
Only them are just dividing
But Jah is providing for I and I surviving
Them are hating
Some are faking, accumulating
Debating, money depreciating
Manipulating to hold us down
But nobody can stop us now

So, if you want make e good oh
Put your hands up you wanna make a move oh
Make you stand up anything wey you go do
Just keep your head up
Make we stand up now (stand up)
E been dey sweet like sugarcane oh
Put your hands up
But now it's full of pain oh
Make you stand up now
Everything don change oh e don change oh
No mind them

So, make them stop to dey look oh
Person no be fool oh
Them know the rules and the views
But still them refuse
Looking for a scapegoat to choose
Na the fool them go use
To portray as a political mumu eh
Them go tell am make e loot and improve
Their party wey dey rule
And when e come refuse (chei)
Them go start to dey dey confused
Them go want to dey use excuse
To infuse, wetin no dey for book oh
They no want to stop the fighting
See them are biting and criticizing
Only them are just dividing
But Jah is providing for I and I surviving
Player hating, demarcating
And inflating, rating democrating
Miscalculating to hold us down
But nobody can stop us now

So, if you want make e good oh
Put your hands up you wanna make a move oh
Make you stand up anything wey you go do
Just keep your head up
Make we stand up now (stand up)
E been dey sweet like sugarcane oh
Put your hands up
But now it's full of pain oh
Make you stand up now
Everything don change oh e don change oh
No mind them

Put your hands up now
(hands inna the air, in the air) my brother
Make you stand up now
(hands inna the air, in the air) my sister
Everything don change oh
(hands inna the air, in the air)
E don change oh
(hands inna the air, in the air)
E don spoil eh no mind them
No mind them no mind them eh
My brother (no more)
Suffering and smiling (no more)
Children are crying (no more)
Police dey keep harassing (oga police eh)
You no go fit deny that (no more)
Political crisis (no more)
'Cause they don't care (no more)
My brothers and sisters

So, if you want make e good oh
Put your hands up you wanna make a move oh
Make you stand up anything wey you go do
Just keep your head up
Make we stand up now (stand up)
E been dey sweet like sugarcane oh
Put your hands up
But now it's full of pain oh
Make you stand up now
Everything don change oh e don spoil oh
No mind them

Stand up! You need to shine your eyes oh
Put your hands up you need to realize say
Make you stand up everything done spoil oh
Just keep your head up make we stand up now
You need to shine your eyes eh
Put your hands up and visualize it
