Lyrics

[male vocals] Yeah... (

mmm)

This

one

is

for

you,

Dad.

I

need

you

to

hear

us

now.

Yesterday

we

sat

by

that

hospital

bed

in

Kalulushi

Sharing

old

stories,

laughing

through

the

heavy

air

We

didn't

know

that

light

was

fading

from

your

eyes

We

didn't

realize

you

were

saying

your

goodbye

Oh,

Godfrey

Kayula

Kunaka

Mpuku

You

were

the

foundation,

the

rock

we

stood

upon

Strong

in

every

storm,

a

man

of

pride

Now

the

silence

is

heavy

since

the

moment

you’

ve

gone

Oh,

Tata,

go

well

until

we

meet

again

Your

children

and

grandchildren,

we’

re

calling

your

name

Ba

Godfrey,

we

miss

you,

it’

s

a

prayer

from

the

heart

Even

though

you’

re

gone,

we’

ll

never

be

apart

Yeah,

go

well,

our

father,

our

guide,

our

soul (

Oh,

I

need

you)

Ba

Gabriel,

he

stands

tall

as

the

father

for

us

all

Bana

Bupe,

our

mother,

she’

s

holding

the

line

Chris

is

our

shepherd,

keeping

us

safe

in

the

fold

Francis

Mwenge

Mpuku,

the

voice

that

speaks

our

truth

in

time

I’

m

Kelvin

Mpuku

Mushilingwa,

I’

ll

be

the

teacher

now

I’

ll

cover

this

family,

keep

the

legacy

strong

Alice

Mpuku,

stay

strong,

don’

t

you

ever

bow

Sampa,

keep

the

spirit,

where

you

belong

Oh,

Tata,

go

well

until

we

meet

again

Your

children

and

grandchildren,

we’

re

calling

your

name

Ba

Godfrey,

we

miss

you,

it’

s

a

prayer

from

the

heart

Even

though

you’

re

gone,

we’

ll

never

be

apart (

Baby,

come

here,

we

miss

you)

It’

s

hard

to

breathe

without

you

at

the

head

of

the

table

We’

re

holding

onto

memories,

trying

to

stay

stable

Every

grandchild,

every

child,

we’

re

weeping

your

name

But

your

strength

lives

in

us,

it’

ll

never

be

the

same

Yeah,

you

were

our

world.

So

rest

now,

Dad,

you’

ve

finished

the

race

We

see

your

reflection

in

every

single

face

We’

ll

honor

the

name

Mpuku,

we’

ll

honor

your

life

Through

the

joy

and

the

tears,

the

peace

and

the

strife

We’

ll

meet

at

the

gates

when

the

time

comes

around

Until

then,

your

love

is

the

only

sound.

Oh,

Tata,

go

well

until

we

meet

again

Your

children

and

grandchildren,

we’

re

calling

your

name

Ba

Godfrey,

we

miss

you,

it’

s

a

prayer

from

the

heart

Even

though

you’

re

gone,

we’

ll

never

be

apart

Go

well,

Tata... (

mmm)

We

love

you,

Godfrey

Kayula

Kunaka

Mpuku

Until

we

meet

again

Rest

in

peace,

Dad. (

Yeah,

we

miss

you)
