Lyrics

[male

vocals] (

Yeah,

yeah)

Just

sitting

here,

you

know

Listening

to

the

bones

talk

It’

s

a

different

kind

of

sound

today

But

it’

s

a

beautiful

sound

Listen

I

remember

the

grass,

the

dirt,

the

old

school

field

We

were

running

wild,

dreams

were

all

we

had

to

build

But

today

I’

m

lying

down,

moving

slow

across

the

floor

Lower

back

aching,

felt

a

pain

I

never

felt

before

It

ain't

from

the

gym,

and

it

ain't

from

the

ball

It’

s

just

the

gravity

of

living,

standing

tall

Caught

myself

making

a

sound,

a

sigh

deep

in

my

chest

Realizing

this

body’

s

finally

putting

me

to

the

test

They

call

me

Bamudala,

with

a

nod

of

the

head

Respect

in

the

streets

for

the

words

that

I

said

Down

on

the

Copperbelt,

I’

m

the

Chi

Father

now

Time

moved

so

fast,

yeah,

I’

m

wondering

how

The

nephews

and

the

nieces,

the

uncles

in

the

line

I’

m

carrying

the

wisdom,

yeah,

the

weight

is

just

fine

Yeah,

the

weight

is

just

fine

Life

review

hitting

different

while

I’

m

resting

on

the

bed

Flashes

of

the

journey

spinning

circles

in

my

head

From

the

young

boy

chasing

shadows

to

the

man

I

have

become

I

see

the

generations

rising

like

the

beat

of

a

drum

It’

s

funny

how

a

little

pain

makes

you

stop

and

take

a

look

At

every

single

chapter

in

this

heavy,

leather

book

I’

m

growing,

I’

m

glowing,

I’

m

standing

in

the

light

Even

if

my

back

is

feeling

heavy

in

the

night

They

call

me

Bamudala,

with

a

nod

of

the

head

Respect

in

the

streets

for

the

words

that

I

said

Down

on

the

Copperbelt,

I’

m

the

Chi

Father

now

Time

moved

so

fast,

yeah,

I’

m

wondering

how

The

nephews

and

the

nieces,

the

uncles

in

the

line

I’

m

carrying

the

wisdom,

yeah,

the

weight

is

just

fine

Yeah,

the

weight

is

just

fine

I

see

my

brothers,

we

made

it

this

far

Still

shining

bright

like

a

distant

star

We

ain't

old,

we're

just

seasoned,

yeah,

we're

built

to

last

Building

up

the

future

while

we

honor

the

past (

Let

it

rise,

let

it

rise)

Everything

is

changing,

everything

is

growth

Keeping

every

promise

and

keeping

every

oath

They

call

me

Bamudala,

with

a

nod

of

the

Respect

to

the

ones

who

walked

it

Respect

to

the

ones

who

grew

with

me

Old

school

forever

We

leveling

up
