Yoh... Heeey!
Miss Ceekay on the vibe...
Batau ba Dimo... Mahlako!
Aowa... re eme ka lerato!
2011, the world shifted beneath our feet,
We lost our Papa, the rhythm missed a beat.
Our hearts were broken, shadows on the wall,
We didn't know how to stand, we felt so small.
Daddy, we still miss you every single day,
Your smile, your voice, it never fades away.
It echoes in the morning, lingers in the night,
A ghost of a memory, holding on so tight.
Batau ba Dimo le Mahlako, we are still standing,
Through the wreckage of time, our love is demanding.
Though the pain runs deep like a river in the dark,
We carry your fire, we carry your spark.
Batau ba Dimo le Mahlako, we are still standing,
To the lessons you taught, our hearts are commanding.
Mama stood tall when the sky turned grey,
She carried the burden, she paved the way.
With hands full of grace and a spirit so true,
She raised us in love, she did what she had to do.
She became our shelter, our shield from the rain,
Softening the edges of all of our pain.
We learned how to live, how to keep our heads high,
Under the vastness of an open blue sky.
Batau ba Dimo le Mahlako, we are still standing,
Through the wreckage of time, our love is demanding.
Though the pain runs deep like a river in the dark,
We carry your fire, we carry your spark.
Batau ba Dimo le Mahlako, we are still standing,
To the lessons you taught, our hearts are commanding.
It’s not easy walking this road without you here,
Facing the silence, swallowing every tear.
But God gave us Mama, a pillar of light,
Guiding us forward, through the longest night.
We learned to grow, we learned not to break,
For every sacrifice and every path you take.
Batau ba Dimo le Mahlako, we are still standing,
Through the wreckage of time, our love is demanding.
Though the pain runs deep like a river in the dark,
We carry your fire, we carry your spark.
Batau ba Dimo le Mahlako, we are still standing,
To the lessons you taught, our hearts are commanding.
We are still here, Papa.
Your love lives forever.
In the blood, in the name, in the legacy.
Batau... Mahlako... Rest in peace.
Still standing... always.
