Lyrics

[male

vocals] (

Ay...

yeah) (

Big

man

ting,

but

this

one's

heavy,

fam) (

Mama,

why

you

gone?)

I'm

walkin'

through

these

ends,

lookin'

at

the

sky

I'm

walkin'

through

these

ends,

lookin'

at

the

sky

Ask

the

Lord

why,

tell

me

why

you

had

to

fly

I'm

in

Hackney

now,

thinkin'

'bout

the

tea

we

made

Now

the

memories

are

fadin',

startin'

to

degrade

I

was

young,

I

was

wild,

you

was

always

there

Combed

my

hair,

showin'

me

that

mother's

care

Now

the

silence

in

the

room

is

louder

than

a

shout

Trying

to

figure

what

this

life

is

all

about

Mama,

why

did

you

leave

me

here

alone?

Left

me

with

this

pain,

cut

me

to

the

bone

I'm

searchin'

for

your

face

in

every

passing

light

Praying

that

I

see

you

when

I

close

my

eyes

at

night

Abel,

if

you

can,

walk

up

for

me

now

Guide

my

spirit

through

this,

I

don't

know

how

Yeah,

this

pain

is

deep,

but

I'm

holdin'

on

still

Mama,

why

did

you

leave,

against

my

will?

I

remember

Lagos

heat

and

the

London

rain

Everything

we

shared,

washing

out

the

pain

You

said,

'My

son,

stay

strong,

keep

your

head

up

high'

But

how

can

I

be

strong

when

I’

m

watchin'

dreams

die?

I’

m

out

here

in

the

ends,

tryin'

to

make

a

mark

But

without

your

guiding

lamp,

I'm

wandering

in

the

dark

It’

s

a

long

ting,

fam,

this

journey

on

my

own

Waitin'

for

a

message,

waitin'

on

the

phone

Mama,

why

did

you

leave

me

here

alone?

Left

me

with

this

pain,

cut

me

to

the

bone

I'm

searchin'

for

your

face

in

every

passing

light

Praying

that

I

see

you

when

I

close

my

eyes

at

night

Abel,

if

you

can,

walk

up

for

me

now

Guide

my

spirit

through

this,

I

don't

know

how

Yeah,

this

pain

is

deep,

but

I'm

holdin'

on

still

Mama,

why

did

you

leave,

against

my

will? (

Rrr!)

Sometimes

the

pressure

builds,

I

feel

like

I'ma

break

How

much

of

this

burden

can

one

person

take?

I

know

you're

watchin',

I

know

you

see

the

hustle

I'm

flexin'

every

dream,

I'm

usin'

every

muscle

Abel,

reach

down,

help

me

find

the

way

Through

the

stormy

night,

to

a

brighter

day

I

see

your

portrait

on

the

shelf,

I

start

to

weep

Promised

I'd

be

good,

promised

I'd

reach

the

peak

It’

s

for

you,

Mama,

every

win

and

every

fight

I'ma

keep

the

fire

burnin',

keep

the

future

bright

No

more

lo'in'

it,

no

more

feelin'

low

I

got

that

blessing

from

the

place

you

had

to

go

Yeah,

the

ends

are

cold,

but

I’

m

warmer

than

before

'Cause

I

know

you’

re

waitin'

for

me

at

the

other

shore

Mama,

why

did

you

leave

me

here

alone?

Left

me

with

this

pain,

cut

me

to

the

bone

I'm

searchin'

for

your

face

in

every

passing

light

Praying

that

I

see

you

when

I

close

my

eyes

at

night

Abel,

if

you

can,

walk

up

for

me

now

Guide

my

spirit

through

this,

I

don't

know

how

Yeah,

this

pain

is

deep,

but

I'm

holdin'

on

still

Mama,

why

did

you

leave,

against

my

will?

Yeah,

Mama,

I'm

still

standin',

innit?

Abel,

keep

walkin'

with

me,

fam

Big

man

ting,

forever

in

my

heart

Yeah,

still...

rest

easy. (
