Pete Pete (feat. Asa)

Ojo re bi ana ta gb'ominira,
1960 N'igba yen tis easy gege bo se wi
Ta rugbo, t'omidan lon dunu pa ti d'ominira
Ominira indeed abi, ewo naira wa
Ilu polukurumusu
T'ewe t'agba lon j'eyan won nisu
Abe ori, ewe eri, sugbon e ofewi
Abe ori, agba eri atenuje lofe p'ayin
Petepete t'ana ni popa
Eni bataba, kolo mofe ni

Sebe l'ema sun
Teba sope 'omo nkankan
Eyin aro lema waa (sebe la ma)
Mewa n'sele o
Sebe l'ema sun (sebe lema sun)
Bi eni wo'seju akan o
Eyin aro lema wa a (mewa nsele o)

Kini suuru ti o l'ere?
Kini seti ko s'ere?
Won sa l'eyan ti o l'oruko
Okuku sise, ode'n rere e
Ah! ede s'ope a siwa l'omode
Nkan sa l'eye je k'agbado t'ode
9ice oro gidi l'oso
Oro to o ni'lari l'oso
An'lati fi laka yesi
K'asoro sibi t'orowa

Boda siko 'bo yen
Won a wa s'adugbo

Eje kan wole tan gbogbo eje tan je da w'oke ise
Toba tun se were, la siko ibo
Won ani k'odo tolo bere
Won a senu mere, kalokalo gbe nkan mi senu wuye
Afira aditu ti iwole, talo dibo fun?
Pasan ta fi na 'yale
Onbe lori aja fun.
Odo elo tunramu, ema je an'pagbon ni funfun
Fun yin, mowi temi

Asegbe kan kosi o

Eyin aro lema waa (sebe la ma)

Sebe l'ema sun (sebe lema sun)
Bi eni wo'seju akan o
Eyin aro lema wa a (mewa nsele o)

Asa ose omo nla

Pete Pete (feat. Asa)

Honey, watch your freedom,
1960 wasn't as easy as we've been told
Fighting, hoping to be rewarded with freedom
If freedom is indeed, where is our money?
The nation is in shambles
The leaders are eating the followers
Broke heads, old heads, but they are starving
Broke heads, old heads, are slaves to their stomachs
Petepete t'ana ni popa
Anybody that fights, will be rewarded

You sleep on your own
You wake and act like nothing happened
You traitors, you better not come (we'll beat you up)
I've thrown 10
You sleep on your own (you better sleep on your own)
Anyone who pokes his nose will be dealt with
You traitors, you better not come (I've thrown 10)

What is the use of all the words?
Why do songs lack words?
They've hidden the man who has a name
Warriors are scarce and peace is rare
Ah! education is being shared with the young
Things are being done outside to make the corn ripe
9ice spits nothing but truth
Words that are meaningful
Let's braid our hair and kneel down
So that we can talk face-to-face

Uncle, come and relax
They'll meet us in the village
They'll be eating peacefully
One person comes in and steals everything before they finish eating
To think we would be fools again, you're a fool from the east
They have already started planning
They've entered without permission and taken my stuff to the bush
They've dug up the three paths in my home, how will I fetch water?
They blocked the road to the stream
They've tied a dog to my gate
The deep river is now shallow, don't let it flood
For you, my love

There is no integrity
There is no honesty
There's weakness everywhere
I'm already dead,
I'm tired of work
I'm tired of begging for money
I'm tired of trekking

You sleep on your own
You wake and act like nothing happened
You traitors, you better not come (we'll beat you up)
I've thrown 10
You sleep on your own (you better sleep on your own)
Anyone who pokes his nose will be dealt with
You traitors, you better not come (I've thrown 10)

Asa, you're a great child
