Ten Times Backwards Songtext
von BANTU

Every inch of progress
Dem must reverse am ten times backwards
Slaughter our dreams
Our hopes and aspirations
Ten times backwards
Every inch of progress
Dem must reverse am ten times backwards
Slaughter our dreams
Our hopes and aspirations
Ten times backwards


Undertakers and enablers many and deadly
Ready to strike at the slightest opportunity
Sweet snake charming mouth
Dem go use cast away all suspicions and doubts
Hoodwink your senses confuse and knock you out
Before, before you realize
Before you know
Dem go drag you down enter stagnation show
Na back to unrefined regressive leadership
Embellished with showmanship

Every inch of progress
Dem must reverse am ten times backwards
Slaughter our dreams
Our hopes and aspirations
Ten times backwards
Every inch of progress
Dem must reverse am ten times backwards
Slaughter our dreams
Our hopes and aspirations
Ten times backwards


When this nightmare go end?
When we go balance and extract ourselves
From these annoying trends?
Every time we dey see small silver lining
One sadistic opportunist surely must step in
Together with their gang dem go hijack our protests
Steal our thunder
Kill our movement
Na di memo of coup plotters
Power craze army
Ask my people for Mali, Burkina and Conakry

Every inch of progress
Dem must reverse am ten times backwards
Slaughter our dreams
Our hopes and aspirations
Ten times backwards
Every inch of progress
Dem must reverse am ten times backwards
Slaughter our dreams
Our hopes and aspirations
Ten times backwards

Dem go crush, stagnate
And frustrate
All our expectations
Dem go crush, stagnate
And frustrate
All our expectations

Every inch of progress
Dem must reverse am ten times backwards
Slaughter our dreams
Our hopes and aspirations
Ten times backwards
Every inch of progress
Dem must reverse am ten times backwards
Slaughter our dreams
Our hopes and aspirations
Ten times backwards
