Lyrics

[female

vocals] (

Aweh)

Eish,

they

say

love

never

dies

Even

when

the

silence

is

heavy

This

one

is

for

you,

Mama

Gillian

Chongo

Nkole

They

tell

me

stories

of

a

queen,

so

kind

and

so

bold

A

heart

of

pure

gold,

a

story

often

told

You

worked

through

the

shadows

just

to

light

up

my

way

Even

when

the

clouds

turned

your

blue

skies

to

grey

You

gave

your

everything,

you

sacrificed

your

breath

Chose

my

life

over

yours,

you

conquered

even

death

I

was

only

three

months

when

the

hospital

doors

closed

And

at

eight

months,

you

left

me,

that’

s

how

the

life

goes

Gillian

Chongo

Nkole,

my

mother,

my

heart

Though

we

were

worlds

apart,

I

felt

you

from

the

start

In

the

kindness

of

strangers,

in

the

things

that

you

left

I

feel

your

spirit,

mama,

I’

m

truly

blessed

Oh,

Gillian,

my

Gillian,

your

love

is

my

grace

I’

m

your

last

born

daughter,

finding

my

place

I

never

held

your

hand,

I

never

heard

you

speak

But

I

feel

your

warm

embrace

whenever

I

feel

weak

They

say

you

were

generous,

you

gave

what

you

had

Thinking

of

you,

mama,

it’

s

not

even

sad

It’

s

a

bittersweet

memory,

a

song

in

the

wind

Your

legacy

lives

on,

right

under

my

skin (

Yebo,

it’

s

true)

Estella

Nkole,

I’

m

carrying

your

name

I’

m

burning

your

light,

I’

m

keeping

the

flame

Gillian

Chongo

Nkole,

my

mother,

my

heart

Though

we

were

worlds

apart,

I

felt

you

from

the

start

In

the

kindness

of

strangers,

in

the

things

that

you

left

I

feel

your

spirit,

mama,

I’

m

truly

blessed

Oh,

Gillian,

my

Gillian,

your

love

is

my

grace

I’

m

your

last

born

daughter,

finding

my

place

Sharp

sharp,

you’

re

watching

from

the

stars

above

Sending

down

the

echoes

of

your

unconditional

love

I’

m

blooming

in

the

garden

that

you

planted

in

the

dirt

Healing

every

scar,

soothing

every

hurt

So

here’

s

to

the

mother

I

never

truly

knew

But

who

I

know

perfectly

because

my

blood

is

you

Hardworking

and

selfless,

a

saint

in

my

eyes

I’

ll

carry

your

memory

until

the

sun

dies

Asambe,

mama,

sleep

in

peace,

you’

re

home

In

the

heart

of

your

daughter,

you’

ll

never

be

alone

Gillian

Oh,

Gillian,

my

Gillian,

your

love

my

grace

I’

m

your

last

born

daughter,

finding

place

I

love

you,

Gillian

My

mother,

my

legend (

Sho,

mama)

Until

we

meet

again

Rest

in

peace,

Gillian
