[female vocals] Yeah,
mmm
This
one’
s
for
you,
Mama
I
see
you
I
look
at
your
hands,
worn
down
by
the
years
I
remember
the
nights
you
swallowed
your
tears
We
started
so
far
back,
in
the
shadows
of
need
With
nothing
but
hope
and
some
promises
to
feed
We
come
from
a
long
road
of
struggle
and
pain
Where
the
clouds
were
so
heavy,
we
drowned
in
the
rain
But
you
stood
like
a
tower,
you
held
up
the
sky
When
the
world
told
us
no,
you
refused
to
comply
Oh
Mama,
we
started
so
far
from
this
place
Through
the
hunger
and
lack,
we
survived
by
His
grace
The
Almighty
held
us,
the
path
cleared
the
way
The
Almighty
held
us,
the
path
cleared
the
way
They
kept
us
alive,
yeah,
to
see
this
day
Oh
Ellah
Mlilo,
you’
re
the
heart
of
the
home
With
you
by
my
side,
I’
m
never
alone
I
remember
the
kitchen,
the
dim
yellow
light
You
were
budgeting
dreams
in
the
middle
of
night
Making
something
from
nothing,
a
feast
from
a
crumb
Protecting
my
spirit
from
all
that
would
come
You
taught
me
the
value
of
work
and
of
pride
With
nowhere
to
run
and
nowhere
to
hide
But
you
were
my
shelter,
my
rock
and
my
core
Even
when
the
winter
was
chilling
the
floor
Oh
Mama,
we
started
so
far
from
this
place
Through
the
hunger
and
lack,
we
survived
by
His
grace
The
Almighty
held
us,
the
path
cleared
the
way
They
kept
us
alive,
yeah,
to
see
this
day
Oh
Ellah
Mlilo,
you’
re
the
heart
of
the
home
With
you
by
my
side,
I’
m
never
alone
Oh,
come
here,
baby
I
see
the
silver
in
your
hair,
it’
s
a
crown
that
you
earned
Every
single
lesson
that
you
helped
me
learn
I’
m
standing
taller
because
of
your
reach
I’
m
living
the
prayers
that
you
used
to
preach
Now
the
sun’
s
finally
hitting
a
different
way
And
I’
m
making
sure
you’
ve
got
a
brand
new
day
No
more
swallowing
tears,
no
more
shadows
of
need
Just
reaping
the
harvest
from
every
good
seed
Ellah
Mlilo,
you’
re
the
queen
of
my
soul
You
made
me
a
woman,
you
made
me
feel
whole
Oh
Mama,
we
started
so
far
from
this
place
Through
the
hunger
and
lack,
we
survived
by
His
grace
The
Almighty
held
us,
the
path
cleared
the
way
They
kept
us
alive,
yeah,
to
see
this
day
Oh
Ellah
Mlilo,
you’
re
the
heart
of
the
home
With
you
by
my
side,
I’
m
never
alone
I
love
you,
Mama
Oh,
Ellah
Mlilo
Yeah,
we
made
it
See
this
day,
yeah
Mmm,
so
beautiful
