PRETTY ATI FUN [MMUNE CUT]

The song Suuru Lere calls for patience and introspection in Nigeria's democratic process. The song begins with a reference to democracy and the fight for it after years of military dictatorship. However, instead of progress, Nigerians are fighting among themselves, hindering the progress of democracy. The song emphasizes the need for patience to build a strong democracy and warns against the hypocrisy of blaming others for problems that we are all responsible for.

Lagbaja references various aspects of Nigerian society such as the military, politicians, the legislative process and education in his call for patience and unity. He also highlights the need to be vigilant and not fall asleep, so that we do not miss opportunities for progress. The song ends on a call for forgiveness and unity, acknowledging that we are all responsible for the current state of democracy in Nigeria.

Overall, Suuru Lere is a powerful statement on the current state of democracy in Nigeria and the need for patience and introspection to build a better future.
