[Verse 1: Grandmazta Yo Slim]
I know about the people
And I know about the lands
I know about the lingu
The culture
About the tribes
And I know it traditions
One nation with a vision
To rise above division
And fly high with wings as eagle
From the beauty of the savanah
To the sun rise in sahara
I know about Lake Chad
The plateaus
And gulf of guinea
For ever we're united
Put the flags up if you feel me
Then wave it side by side
And sing the song for motherland
C'mon
[Chorus]
Nigeria
My beloved country
Working together is the key
Nigeria
My beloved country
Her future is you and me

Yuh yuh, uh, yuhh
Our pens has been consuming
Bottles of ink
To actualize ya dreams..
To put ya dates in the pages
Of history
But then we ask ...
WHEN WILL THE GOALS
OF THE LOSTS
AND SICKENING BE FULFILLED???
WHEN WILL THE CENTURIES
IN HER AFFLICTION
OF THE MILLIONS BE APPEASED ??
But our story
Is timeless steaming
Of the greatness that
We always RISE!!
We rise with so many choices
So many people
And yet we haven't lost the voices
Of our heroes
Arise against your nightmares
Of greed
ARISE FROM HATE
And our diffrences
To grow the seed of our nation
With love
Let the seal on our nation
Be humanity
Come make we plans for our
Home good, this is for
The blessed land
WHERE WE'RE GROWING

That is rich for agriculture
And we staying vindicated
As the heart of Mama Africa!!!

[Verse 3: Grandmazta Yo Slim]
God's own people
On God's own land
God is the pillar
Not even war....
Can tear us apart
In vein
Won't be the labour of our heroes pass
With great potentials
We can do more than just survive
Hold our hands together
And together we can build our
Strength and pride
Trusting in God most high
To be our knowledge and guide
We are strong and resilient people
The light of the world
The beauty of the continent
The giant of Africa
The land of milk and honey
The grandeur that is motherland
The glory and the power
For ever we never carwer
Bring it like every hour
Am for ever my brothers keeper
NIGERIA!!!!!!!
[Chorus]
Nigeria
My beloved country
Working together is the key
Nigeria
My beloved country
Her future is you and me
