"Commander" lyrics

Finding light in shadowed alleys
I seek solace in naked streets

Listen commander is speaking
I'm here for a reason
Cannot drop your weapon you know that's a fucking treason
It's what I believe in
Believe in my spirit
Wake me from my slumber if you ever catch me sleeping
Welcome to the circle where we making love with violence
Battle with my demons gotta conquer and divide them
Asking my creator for protection and for guidance
You can be a soldier but you cannot die in silence

If it is for me I will never say no
Told God I need a sign and he made a rainbow
My life is on the line if my brother say so
It's a different journey but we on the same road
Even if I bleed I will never say no
You know I came from nothing so I'm on my ten toes
I do it for my people and it's something they know
I do it for my people and it's something they know

What's up soldiers?
Stand your ground man
Got to go through hell to get to paradise
Remember that
Fight for your brothers mehn

Jesu owu eh ora chukubu be angelapu obu eh
Ora fia fia teme eh oh ora boma mingi oh ani igben abo
Ani igben abo iweriso idekiso
As I fight for my daily bread
Bless the hands of my comrades
As I grind for my daily bread
Bless the hands of my comrades eh eh
Jesu owu eh ora chukubu be angelapu obu eh

If it is for me I will never say no
Told God I need a sign and he made a rainbow
My life is on the line if my brother say so
It's a different journey but we on the same road
Even if I bleed I will never say no
You know I came from nothing so I'm on my ten toes (You know I)
I do it for my people and it's something they know (Oh oh)
I do it for my people and it's something they know
