Asa - Jailer Lyrics






I'm in chains you're in chains too
I wear uniforms and you wear uniforms too
I'm a prisoner,
You're a prisoner too Mr Jailer

I have fears you have fears too
I will die, you sef go die too
Life is beautiful
Don't you think so too Mr Jailer

[Chorus:]
I'm talking to you jailer
Stop calling me a prisoner
Let he who is without sin -
Be the first to cast the stone Mr Jailer, Mr Jailer Man

You suppress all my strategies
You oppress every part of me
What you don't know,
You're a victim too Mr Jailer

You don't care about my point of view
If I die another will work for you
So you treat me like a modern slave Mr Jailer

[Chorus]

You see, if you're walking in a market place
Don't throw stones
Even if you do, you just might hit
One of your own
Life is not about your policies
All the time
So you better rearrange your
Philosophies and be good to your Fellow man
Jailer

[Chorus x2]

I hear my baby say
I wanna be president
I wan chop money
From my government
What he don't know
What he won't know
What he can't know
Jailer, Jailer oh
Be good oh [x3] somebody
Be good oh [x6]
Jailer, Jailer

    This song shook Nigeria when it came out a decade ago, and I bought several copies that I gave out to friends. I remember in 2003/4 when Asa will strum her guitar and perform her sings and poems at the Word and Sound openmic for spoken word and songs organized by Nigerian folksinger and poet, Beautiful Nubia (Segun Akinlolu); and we knew her voice will someday reach the global audience.

    This song has a powerful message behind it. We all fall short somewhere. Instead of spending our energy at pointing out the speck in each others eyes in a manner of destructive criticism, why not be kind to each other and be accommodative of each other. Asa is a robust and powerful artist. Her musical sounds, vibes reach to the soul🙏...just discovered her music two weeks ago. I can say I am having one heck of a good time listening to it.

  42. M.... C....

    Ohh be cool ohh be cool ohh
