Inside my mind

In this sleep
I start to dream
That our world Wey we dey
Start to change
In this sleep

That our world Wey we dey
Start to change
There was peace - Oh Yes!
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah!
Oh Yes! There was peace
Suffering start to go away
Oh Yeah! There was peace
For the dream, money start to flow everywhere
Oh Yeah! There was peace
