Mpulungu Remember
A song made by askewbencharlieluo
Mpulungu, do you remember? (hallelujah)
When they came with promises
They walked these dusty roads with humble feet
Shook every hand on every Mpulungu street
They said "I'm one of you, I understand your pain"
But power changed them, now they fly in private planes
They knew your struggles, shared your daily bread
Now they forget the promises they said
The lake still rises, roads still full of holes
But they got richer while they sold our souls (yes Lord)
Mpulungu remember, when they were just like us
Now they ride in convoys, raising clouds of dust
They found their glory, but they lost their way (praise Him)
Mpulungu remember, remember election day
They said "I'll build you schools, I'll bring you clean water"
Now their own children study across the border
They wore our chitenge, ate our fish and nshima
Now they dine in mansions, living out their dreams
The fishing boats still struggle on Lake Tanganyika
While they count their millions, getting richer and richer (thank You Jesus)
But God is watching from His throne above
One day they'll answer for this broken love
Mpulungu remember, when they were just like us
Now they ride in convoys, raising clouds of dust
They found their glory, but they lost their way (amen)
Mpulungu remember, remember election day
Mpulungu, don't forget (glory)
Your memory is your power, hallelujah
