Lyrics Why - Banky W.

Omo wetin dey happen
God gave us oil in the delta
Water for benue and niger
Mineral resources all over
And he called us Nigeria
We have no natural disaster
Na we dey cause kata kata
We come dey fall asunder
E dey make me dey wonder why
We are so bright, bi itun lili
Still we got no unity
We are so wide, bi oju orun o, So why
So why cant we see
God never forsake us
But we forsake ourselves
Heaven just wants to help us
But we must help ourselves
So why
Can't we even try
To live in U.N.I.T.Y
Its up to you and I
We have survived military suppression
Not to mention the oppression of the mind
See all of this pretension and descension
From Africa's center of attention
Now that we have our freedom
We throw away all our wisdom
In the name of religion and politics
What is this
Now we fighting in Jos
Killing one another no remorse
Stuck like traffic in Lagos
Tell you what this means
We gotta move forward
Cos we behind in this race course
We are so bright, bi itun lili
Still we got no unity
Tell me why
We are so wide, bi oju orun o, tell me why
So why cant we see
God never forsake us
But we forsake ourselves
Heaven just wants to help us
But we must help ourselves
So why
Can't we even try
To live in U.N.I.T.Y
Its up to you and I
So tell me tell me why
Can't we even try
To live in U.N.I.T.Y
Its up to you and I
When I go over to the east they say
Chukwu gozie gi ah gozie gi
When I go over to the west they say
Oluwa yo bukun o
My calabar brother say
Abasi oyong fi
My hausa people say
Allah ba kalaba
What's the use of blessing one another
If we keep fighting one another
And killing each other
Oh why
We are so bright, bi itun lili
Still we got no unity
We are so wide, bi oju orun o
So why cant we see
God never forsakes us
But we forsakes ourselves
Heaven just wants to help us
But we must help ourselves
We are so bright, bi itun lili
Still we got no unity
We are so wide, bi oju orun o
So why cant we see
God never forsake us
But we forsake ourselves
Heaven just wants to help us
But we must help ourselves
So why
Can't we even try
To live in U.N.I.T.Y
Its up to you and I
So tell me why
Can't we even try
To live in U.N.I.T.Y
Its up to you and I ×2
Oh yeah
Why why why why why
We can try try try try try
Its up to you and I
