Community or tax? Easy for you to hate it

Swear they strip you naked when you the first to make it

Heavy is the head to muster courage I suppose

From the cradle to the grave

Every man must stand alone

And favors they are wearing out and walls are closing in

Mese asɛm na aba ama hwɛ obiaa anya bi ka

Ɔdehyeɛ ma poli kɛkɛ na to be continued
