Mama's Legacy
A song made by African Boy
(Getrude Milimo) Yebo, this one is for the foundation
You kept the flame alive, Mama Getrude Hamukale
Sharp sharp, let's go
From the cradle to the man I am today
You pushed through the rain, showed me the way
When the days were cold and the bread was thin
You held the family up, you let the light come in
Eish, you were the pillar, the rock in the storm
Teaching me faith, keeping my spirit warm
I see you in the mirror, I see you in the grace
Every single step, I’m running at your pace
Mama Getrude you’re the heart of the family
Through the tough times and the joy that we own
I named my daughter for you, so your spirit stays near
My wife carries your name as her marriage name, keeping you dear
Yeah, Mama, your legacy is living in me
You led me to the Lord, now I’m finally free
You didn’t just raise me, you built up a soul
When I was broken, you made me whole
With every prayer whispered late in the night
You were the fire that burned ever so bright
Sharp sharp, you never gave up on the dream
Steering the ship through the roughest of stream
Now I stand tall, I’m the fruit of your seed
Providing the harvest, fulfilling the need
Mama, you’re the heart of this family
Through the tough times and the joy that we own
I named my daughter for you, so your spirit stays near
My wife Amanda carries your name as her marriage name, keeping you dear
Yeah, Mama, your legacy is living in me
You led me to the Lord, now I’m finally free
It’s the love that you gave, it’s the path that you showed
A blessing for the ages, down this long road
Asambe, let the music tell the story true
Everything I have, I owe it all to you
Watching my daughter grow, I call out your name
Seeing my wife shine, it’s always the same
Your presence is a comfort, a sacred embrace
Reflecting your wisdom, your love, and your grace
Sho, you’re the legend that lives in the bone
Ensuring that I’m never standing alone
Mama, you’re the heart of this home
Through the tough times and the joy that we own
I named my daughter Natasha for you, so your spirit stays near
My wife Amanda Kamanda carries your name, keeping you dear
Yeah, Mama, your legacy is living in me
You led me to the Lord, now I’m finally free
Yeah, your legacy is living in me
Mama, you're the heart of this home
Always and forever, in my blood and my soul
Sharp sharp, Mama... we love you.
