LET IT BE KNOWN.


Agoo...
Let the drums roll
And let it be known that:
The heavens weep for the earth.
Let it be known that
The sleep of the ancestors have been disturbed
And they sit beneath the mighty iroko tree
In a state of sorrow
Lamenting over the evils pandering across our country.

Let it be known that
The souls of the fifth landing stage - tokoatolia
Are filled with pain, and boiling with rage
Questioning the ancestors
For the unjust treatment rented unto them.
Why they were buried alive with only their heads up
Leaving their eyes at the mercy of the crows
While today's evil doers are left to wander among the living? -
They're left to roam the streets making it unsafe,
Leaving the innocents as banks for thier depositing bullets.

Agoo...
Let the drums roll
And let it be known that;
It is time to go back to the days when evil was evil
And meritted an evil punishment.
It is time to go back to the days when fear gripped you
At the mere thought of wrong doings.
It is time to go back to the days
When the laws were in full force
And you dare not overlook even the dot at the end of it.
It is time to go back to the days
When these streets were safe
