Solidarity is forever
Solidarity is forever
Solidarity is forever
We shall always fight for our right

What a great chorus they always sing!
Yet in their hearts
Their belly they tend to save
Not for those they guise to help

If not, Aluta
Wouldn't have been to 'pot' the belly
While we all praise them
For the work being done

Hoping to have a turn around for the best
But our trust they laid in the mud
Our hope for a great leadership
Is daily calved In our greed

They know this at every close of a tenure
And in need to continue
They come in their solidarity
To tell us yet another lies

And bless our gluttons
In repetition of one agenda in different tones
Who have we offended
And is not ready to forgive?

In case you know the person, beckon
That we may atone for the wrongs and be set free
This in no way has gone deep
That our youths are not different

Threats and killing all the way
Even to lead the SUG or faculty
What hope do we have
That the youths are their shoes?

Righteous leadership is not in their watch
But looting is their focus
The so called Activists are worse than an infidel
How awesome is the end of the greedy?

They fade away like fat
While their memories have no value
Remember the Nigerian leaders
How awesome is the end of the selfless

They never fade away
As their memories cut across generations
Hope you remember Abraham.

Aluta continua
Victoria ascerta!
