Tension (feat. Shola)

There comes a time when
You cannot but speak the truth
Irrespective of the sentiment we may share
Today Mr president
All of us are being threatened
More more than ever before in the history of our nation
This is the worst insecurity we are facing
In fact this is worst than the civil war

Ugh!
Too much tension
(Too much tension)
I say too much tension
(Too much tension)
Ugh!
There's too muchhhhh tension
(Too much tension)
It's kinda hard to sleep at night
(Too much tension)
Men it's kinda hard to sleep at night
(Too much tension)

There's a war going on and it's reached our doors
Unannounced like sorta how the preachers from
Jehovah's witness walk around and bring the gospel
Please don't come near
It's not safe
This a bomb threat

No be lie
Some days I call my guy
Cause some times
E dey be like say I no dey try
Even though I'm more than just a passerby
Them dey call me pretentious anytime I cry
Where the the sign?
Billboards dey instigate crime
Leg dey heavy me like say i step on landmine
I go blow my brains
To put ice on my neckline
I no fit digest shit I'm low on the enzyme
That's why doctors can't put me in check
Only bankers
Boys Dey blow whistle for the feds out of hunger
I remember when that fuel station manager
Die for inside oil-tanker
He do like say na Bouncer
But peace tho
Without a pistol
Everybody tryna rob everybody
And if you carry phone waka for night
You fit hear sorry
I be real original but I only stunt with the copy

Ugh!
Too much tension
(Too much tension)
I say too much tension
(Too much tension)
Ugh!
There's too muchhhhh tension
(Too much tension)
It's kinda hard to sleep at night
(Too much tension)
Men it's kinda hard to sleep at night
(Too much tension)

There's a war going on and it's reached our doors
Unannounced like sorta how the preachers from
Jehovah's witness walk around and bring the gospel
Please don't come near
It's not safe
This a bomb threat

Geez I'm upset, paranoid... Dean et al
Scared of my own self
Man avoid me and just
Look the other way
Atta boy, peace and love
Things may turn red like a code-red intercourse
I'm pissed and hurt
My cousin sist' was shot
By fulani herdsman
Men she was kidnapped for
'Bout three to four days with a bullet in her butt
God gives and God takes
He said it wasn't her turn
Amen!
Yeah the family's glad and thankful
So I gats spread the voltage across for the fans to
Get juiced up
And let through some
Cool breeze to blow off the steam so can move on
But these cats wanna talk bars
Like I won't stay on point
And run circles around 'em like compass
You know the syllables in talk bars is bar talk backwards
Without the 's' and if it's that one
I'ma come harder like Clive Owen
When I'm raiding to bring justice & freedom for the clan dawg
These last nights has been so dramatic
Too much tension
Let's take it back to the topic

Omo things dey sup for this country
And we need things to be fing different like
We need drastic changes
I know say e no go easy but
We need to start from somewhere
So make sure you get your PVC and vote in the forthcoming election
Yeah
