Roads to Your Future

(Ooh, yeah)

(This one for my family, you know)

(I’m miles away, but you’re always here)

(Yoh, listen)

I’m behind this wheel, watching the sunrise in Botswana

Driving through South Africa, feeling the heavy load

Mozambique to Malawi, chasing the horizon in Zimbabwe

Every mile that I cover, it’s a story told

I look at the map and my heart starts to beat fast

Thinking of Anastasia, the strength that you show

Sonile, Anthony, Vallen, my heart is yours to last

I’m gone for a season, but I’ll be back, I know

I’m moving, I’m driving, I’m working for you

Nikukondani maningi, everything I do is true

I don’t want you to suffer, I don’t want the pain

I want you to shine like the sun through the rain

My children, I’m with you in the spirit each day

I love you so much, though I’m far, far away

I remember my childhood, the struggle I had to face

I don’t want that life for you, no, not in this place

I want you to learn, I want you to school, I want you to rise

See the ambition growing, reflecting in your eyes

Whatever the border, whatever the long road might bring

I’m grinding for you, you’re the song that I sing

Ifwe, we are one, through the distance and the heat

My love is the fuel that keeps me on my feet

I’m moving, I’m driving, I’m working for you

Nikukondani maningi, everything I do is true

I don’t want you to suffer, I don’t want the pain

I want you to shine like the sun through the rain

My children, I’m with you in the spirit each day

I love you so much, though I’m far, far away

Every border post, every city I pass by

I look at the stars in the midnight sky

I whisper your names, I keep you in my prayers

My love is a fortress, it finds you everywhere

(Natotela, God, for keeping them safe)

I’m moving, I’m driving, I’m working for you

Nikukondani maningi, everything I do is true

I don’t want you to suffer, I don’t want the pain

I want you to shine like the sun through the rain

My children, I’m with you in the spirit each day

I love you so much, though I’m far, far away

I’m coming home soon, stay strong for me

Anastasia, my love, keep the fire burning

Anthony, Vallen, Sonile, keep your heads up high

Daddy’s always watching, I’m never gone for long

(Ayy, yeah)

Just for you, I’ll reach the end of the road

(My heart is with you)
