My number one, my everything, asambe
Early in the morning you were up before the light
Working through the struggle, keeping everything alright
I see the way you move, you carry so much grace
A smile that brightens up the darkest kind of place
My Mama, you’re the rock, you’re the anchor in the sea
Everything I have today is 'cause you prayed for me
Sho, you’re the one who taught me how to stand up tall
You caught me every time you saw me start to fall
Oh, Mama, you’re my blessing, you’re my gold
A story of a love that never will grow old
Every day I thank the heavens you are mine
Like the sun above, you’re always gonna shine
Oh, Mama, you’re my blessing, you’re my gold
A story of a love that never will grow old
Every day I thank the heavens you are mine
Like the sun above, you’re always gonna shine
Eish, the world can be so cold, but you’re the fire inside
With you beside me, Mama, there is nowhere left to hide
You speak a word of wisdom and the clouds begin to clear
Just hearing your voice is enough to kill the fear
Sharp sharp, you taught me how to hustle and to win
To always keep my spirit high beneath my skin
You made a way when there was not a single way to see
You sacrificed your comfort just to build a life for me
Oh, Mama, you’re my blessing, you’re my gold
A story of a love that never will grow old
Every day I thank the heavens you are mine
Like the sun above, you’re always gonna shine
Like the sun above, you’re always gonna shine
I see your face in every blessing that I touch
I thank the Lord for you, I love you so much
From the township streets to wherever we may go
You’re the only queen that I will ever know
So let the rhythm play while I sing it out loud
I’m carrying your legacy and making you proud
No matter where I roam, I’m coming back to you
My Mama, you’re the best, yeah, you know it’s true
The log drums beating, but my heart is beating more
For the woman who opened every single door
I’m dancing for you, Mama, let the music flow
You’re the light of my life, yeah, you really know
Oh, Mama, you’re my blessing, you’re my gold
A story of a love that never will grow old
Every day I thank the heavens you are mine
Like the sun above, you’re always gonna shine
Oh, Mama, you’re my blessing, you’re my gold
A story of a love that never will grow old
Every day I thank the heavens you are mine
Like the sun above, you’re always gonna shine
Love you always, Mama, sho
