The song "No Time" by Bracket featuring P-Square is a reflection on the realities of life, where the good people die while the bad ones survive. The lyrics speak about the need to enjoy life and not worry about the inevitable. The line "no time" is repeated throughout the song, emphasizing the need to seize the moment and live in the present. The phrase "kolo eh" is repeated several times, which translates to "madness" in English. This is emblematic of the general feeling of unrest and confusion that is experienced in life.
The song begins with the melancholy tone of the singer, lamenting about the painful issues they face in life. However, the chorus becomes upbeat, encouraging listeners to embrace life and experience the joy it has to offer. The lyrics reflect the Nigerian perspective of life where happiness is seen as the ultimate goal, and one has to be carefree and live life to the fullest in the present.
The song also features the popular Nigerian musical duo P-Square, who provide a catchy and lively chorus. The singers advise listeners to enjoy life by dancing along to the rhythm of the song. Thus, the song is not only a reflection of societal realities but also encourages people to live life to the fullest.

@Mahad Faycal Did they ever perform in Djibouti? If not @officialbracket you need to perform in Djibouti. I have never been to East Africa before, so maybe this might give me a reason to go. 🤔
