How long will you wish to be a citizen of a better land?
How long will you prefer the aroma of a foreign dish?
How long will you depend on the craftsmanship of a foreigner?
We've despised ourselves enough
We've depend on their verdict enough
We've sought their approval enough
Their crown is not glorious than ours
Their soup is not sweeter than ours
Their tongue is not better than ours
All that are global, were once local
It's by bravery that they become global language
English language was local as Igbo
But by bravery it became the world 's language
Coca cola was local as kunu
But by bravery it is now an international drink
Football was local as koso
But by bravery it's now a universal sport
Wake up Nigerians! Wake up!
Let's wake up and believe in Nigeria
Let's wake up and celebrate Nigeria
Let's wake up and promote Nigeria
Wake up Nigerians! Wake up!
WAKE UP AFRICA!!!!!!!!!
