Listen

We
talkin'
about
a
man
who
built
a
legacy
From
the
ground
up,
step
by
step
Mr.
Maka
John
This
one
is
for
you
I
remember
the
days
when
the
road
was
long
Everything
felt
uncertain,
everything
felt
wrong
But
you
stepped
in
with
a
vision
so
clear
You
chased
away
the
shadows,
you
quieted
the
fear
Every
lesson
you
taught
was
etched
in
the
stone
You
made
us
feel
like
we
were
never
alone
Through
the
winter
wind
and
the
summer
heat
You
kept
your
rhythm,
you
never
skipped
a
beat
Oh,
Mr.
Maka
John,
you’
re
the
guiding
light
You
led
us
through
the
day
and
you
held
us
through
the
night
You’
re
our
boss,
our
mentor,
the
best
we’
ve
ever
known
A
king
among
men,
in
a
league
of
your
own
We
appreciate
the
love,
we
appreciate
the
soul
Mr.
Maka
John,
you
make
us
feel
whole
It
wasn't
just
the
work,
it
was
the
way
you
cared
All
the
hidden
burdens
that
you
quietly
shared
You
built
a
foundation
on
trust
and
on
grit
You
never
once
faltered,
you
never
once
quit
People
come
and
go
like
the
tide
on
the
sand
But
you
left
a
mark
with
a
steady
hand
We’
re
standing
here
now,
looking
back
at
the
climb
And
you’
re
still
the
champion,
standing
through
time
Oh,
Mr.
Maka
John,
you’
re
the
guiding
light
You
led
us
through
the
day
and
you
held
us
through
the
night
You’
re
our
boss,
our
mentor,
the
best
we’
ve
ever
known
A
king
among
men,
in
a
league
of
your
own
We
appreciate
the
love,
we
appreciate
the
soul
Mr.
Maka
John,
you
make
us
feel
whole
Time
moves
fast,
seasons
change
their
hue
But
the
gratitude
we
feel
belongs
to
you
From
the
bottom
of
our
hearts,
we
send
this
song
To
the
one
who
stood
by
us
all
along
Yeah,
you’
re
the
one,
yeah,
you’
re
the
best
Put
our
worries
and
our
doubts
to
rest
So
here’
s
to
the
future
and
here’
s
to
the
past
To
a
legacy
of
love
that’
s
built
to
last
We
don't
need
to
say
much
to
show
you
the
truth
You
gave
us
the
wisdom,
you
guided
our
youth
Walk
tall,
Mr.
Maka,
with
your
head
held
high
Underneath
the
vast
and
the
open
sky
We’
re
walking
in
your
footsteps,
proud
of
the
way
You
brightened
our
path
every
single
day
Oh,
Mr.
Maka
John,
you’
re
the
guiding
light
You
led
us
through
the
day
and
you
held
us
through
the
night
You’
re
our
boss,
our
mentor,
the
best
we’
ve
ever
known
A
king
among
men,
in
a
league
of
your
own
We
appreciate
the
love,
we
appreciate
the
soul
Mr.
Maka
John,

make
us
feel
whole
Yeah
Our
best,

Mr.
Maka
John
We
love
you,
boss (
