Lyrics

[male

vocals] (

Soft

piano

chords

fading

in)

Yeah.

Just

thinking

about

the

roads

we

traveled.

From

the

dust

of

Kaputa

to

the

silence

here.

It's

heavy.

You

were

the

child

of

the

earth,

born

where

the

light

hits

the

soil

Walking

through

Kaputa,

where

the

days

were

long

and

filled

with

toil

You

gave

your

hands

to

the

work,

never

took

a

coin

that

wasn't

earned

I

watched

you

grow

like

a

wildflower,

before

the

season

turned

We

had

dreams

etched

in

the

clay,

promises

under

the

sun

But

the

path

we

walked

together,

it’

s

come

undone,

it’

s

come

undone

Now

I’

m

missing

the

way

you

called

my

name

But

the

fire

we

built

has

lost

its

flame

Oh,

Nine

Chongo,

the

distance

is

deep

Promises

broken

that

I

couldn't

keep

I’

m

left

with

the

ghosts

of

the

life

we

knew

Walking

these

streets,

just

looking

for

you

Grandchild

of

Chibolya,

you

carried

the

pride

of

your

name

You

stood

so

tall

in

the

storm,

never

playing

a

coward's

game

Honest

in

spirit,

you

moved

through

the

world

with

a

grace

Now

there’

s

a

hollow

space

in

my

chest,

a

memory

I

can't

erase

I

see

your

face

in

the

mirror,

I

hear

your

step

on

the

floor

But

the

lock

has

turned,

and

I’

m

staring

at

a

closing

door

Now

I’

m

missing

the

way

you

called

my

name

But

the

fire

we

built

has

lost

its

flame

Oh,

Nine

Chongo,

the

distance

is

deep

Promises

broken

that

I

couldn't

keep

I’

m

left

with

the

ghosts

of

the

life

we

knew

Walking

these

streets,

just

looking

for

you

I

shouldn't

look

back,

I

know

that

the

cycle

is

done

But

I’

m

still

chasing

the

setting

of

our

golden

sun

Was

it

the

time?

Was

it

the

change

in

the

breeze?

Or

just

two

broken

hearts

brought

down

to

their

knees?

The

wind

blows

cold

from

the

north

where

we

used

to

run

I’

m

counting

the

shadows,

hiding

from

the

morning

sun

You

worked

for

everything,

you

held

your

head

so

high

And

I’

m

just

left

here

wondering

why

we

had

to

say

goodbye

Kaputa

feels

like

a

lifetime

ago,

a

dream

in

the

haze

I’

m

lost

in

the

rhythm

of

these

lonely,

lingering

days

Now

I’

m

missing

the

way

you

called

my

name

But

the

fire

we

built

has

lost

its

flame

Oh,

Nine

Chongo,

the

distance

is

deep

Promises

broken

that

I

couldn't

keep

I’

m

left

with

the

ghosts

of

the

life

we

knew

Walking

these

streets,

just

looking

for

you

Yeah,

just

looking

for

you.

Nine

Chongo,

child

of

the

soil.

It’

s

over

now. (

Fade

out

with

soft

piano

and

guitar)

Just

the

wind

remains.
