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 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 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.
I love ❤️🎧 so much, love ❤️ for Nigeria 🇳🇬 2019
Spotted once on Samurai FM back in 2005/6.

Am in chains you’re in chains too I wear uniforms, you wear uniforms too
I'm a prisoner, you’re a prisoner too Mr Jailer
I have fears you have fear too I will die, you sef go die too
Life is beautiful don’t you think so too Mr Jailer
Am talking to you jailer Stop calling me a prisoner
Let he who is without sin be the first to cast the stone Mr Jailer
You suppress all my strategy
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 threat me like a modern slave Mr Jailer
You don’t care about my point of view
If I die another will work for you
So you threat me like a modern slave Mr Jailer
If you 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
I hear my baby say I wan be president
I wan chop money
From my government
What he don’t know
Be say Mr Jailer

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.
Ohh be cool ohh be cool ohh
10yrs later still my best jam
Wow. She's brilliant.

First Heard This In Samurai FM Blood and fire radio samurai Fm
who is here in June 2019?
Asa better than Fela
I’m here in 2019 but no need for the comparison. Both are legends in their own way
Who is this one? What kind of retarded disrespectful comparison is that?
They are literally 2 different kind of artist, no comparison, fela is the best at what he does while Asa is one of the best in what she does. Please don't compare them.. ..
You are a very demented soul..... Very pitiful....
Unique voice and message and ever green piece indeed! Where are thou now bae?
Am here in 2019✊ good music
who is she talking
June 2019??
Who's here in 2020?
