[INTRO — DRUM ROLL / HORNS / BASS] Ghana
remembers!
Yesterday
they
told
us: "
Let
the
law
work!" "
Go
and
answer
the
Police!" "
No
one
is
above
the
law!"
But
today—
Same
Ghana!
Same
Constitution!
Same
Police!
Same
courts!
So
Ghana
asks—
WHAT
HAS
CHANGED?
CROWD:
WHAT
HAS
CHANGED?
[CHORUS — UPBEAT, DANCEABLE] Ghana
remembers!
WHAT

CHANGED?
Yesterday—

Today—

Yesterday—"

answer!"
Today—"
Witch-hunt!"
Same
Ghana!
Same
laws!
Same
institutions!
Tell
me—
WHAT
HAS
CHANGED?
WHAT

CHANGED?
CROWD:

[VERSE 2 — SOSU / QUAYSON] Remember
Francis-Havea
Sosu!
Police
came
calling—
and
Ghana
heard: "
IMMUNITY
IS
NOT
IMPUNITY!"
An

CROWD:

Then
Assin

And

Then
the
