Biafra is coming, there is no doubt about that,
Biafra is coming, and nothing can stop it.
from east, west, north and south you can hear the roaring,
the voice of Nnamdi Kanu echoing throughout the earth,
fighting for his people, bringing them out of darkness and into the light.
the wounded lion has risen up, fighting for survival, fighting for freedom.
provoked by the injustice, slavery and bondage.
with an unstoppable passion for freedom
the indigenous people of Biafra are ready to go,
out of Nigeria and back to their roots, where it all began in Biafra land.
