1 (SIR DAUDA)
Life is like a puzzle of conundrum I designed,
Speaking to the oracle and she showed me the sign,
She said focus on a mission know the seasons and the times,
Cos death is more than probable when the sheep move with the blind,
I said listen brother, (listen brother)
Better run for cover, (better run for cover)
Hey sister, (hey sister)
Been tryna reach ya, (been tryna reach ya)
Can't you hear the thunder in the skies,
Don't you see the fire in my eyes.
I see a war coming, war coming,
There's a war coming,
I see a war coming, war coming, war coming,
War coming,
Better run 1, 2, 1, 2, get ready go, get ready go,
There's a war coming,
Say you gotta go 1, 2, on your mark, set, ready go, get ready go,
War coming.
So them start running,
See the war coming,
Start running,
See the war coming,
2 (EVA)
These are the times and the days,
The town sharper than a thousand blades,
You offer lies all the way,
But you seek truth and abandon grace,
Do you mean all the things that you say,
When the nouns and the verbs come out to play,
A pretty smile but a heart filled with hate,
Another disguise like the tears on your face,
And people keep on telling me that you are here to stay,
But you'd rather let it burn,
Decide to fold when it's your turn,
This time you better know this is your war coming,
The fight from your soul will keep your heartbeat drumming,
Would you keep on running
Straight no tuning,
Or would you turn around and fight this war that's coming.
I see a war coming, war coming,
There's a war coming,
I see a war coming, war coming, war coming,
War coming,
Better run 1, 2, 1, 2, get ready go, get ready go,
There's a war coming,
Say you gotta go 1, 2, on your mark, set, ready go, get ready go,
War coming.
BRIDGE 1:
E para mo o, omo ogun de
Para mo o, omo kiniu bo,
E para mo o, omo ogun de,
Para mo o, omo kiniu bo.
I see a war coming, war coming,
There's a war coming,
I see a war coming, war coming, war coming,
War coming,
Better run 1, 2, 1, 2, get ready go, get ready go,
There's a war coming,
Say you gotta go 1, 2, on your mark, set, ready go, get ready go,
War coming.
BRIDGE 2:
E para mo o,
There's a war coming,
Para mo o, War coming,
E para mo o,
There's a war coming,
Para mo o, omo kiniu bo,
War coming.

They coming for you better get ready,
Though the weight very heavy, your feet steady,
Just remember who you are like mufasa said it,
And don't let em judge you ain't it the wrong verdict,
Say you stand there now with the fear in your face,
You dropped your shield and shared in your spears,
Looking like you tryna find an easy escape,
Now how you gon' win when you give up the race,
We living by your status,
Forgetting what they teach us,
The sages and the preachers and our mothers so religious...
We carry in the belly all the hate like a foetus
Is this really how we...(Fade out)
