There's a cry form a young boy, in a city running wild; There's a cry from a mother, who just lost another child; There's a cry from a people, who have nothing more to lose; Everything that they lived for, have been wasted and abused;
There's a cry from a river, that has nowhere to flow; And the pride of the river was lost so long ago; And that cry is for a reason, that only heaven knows; Where did they go wrong, how can we go on; Only hope remains the answer. There's a man on a mission, there's a desperate heart to rule; He has love for the people, yet he calls the people fools; He has guns for the people, on a promise yet to come; So they kill one another, for a hope that never comes;
There's a cry from a river, that has nowhere to flow; And the pride of the river was lost so long ago; And that cry is for a reason, that only heaven knows; Where did they go wrong, how can we go on; Only hope remains the answer. There are so many questions, when will all this trouble cease; Like the war in Niger delta, would we ever live in peace? I believe in the people, if they only have a chance; There's a hope for the future, but the future is in our hands;
There's a cry from a river, that has nowhere else to flow; And the pride of the river was lost so long ago; And that cry is for a reason, only, only heaven knows; Where did they go wrong?
There's a cry from a river, that has nowhere else to flow; And the pride of the river was lost so long ago; And that cry is for a reason, that I can't tell the why; Where did we go wrong, how can we go on; Only hope remains the answer. There's a cry form a young boy, in a city running wild; There's a cry from a mother, who just lost another child;
