(Yoh... Baba)
(Why?)
Sabelo is calling you...
They told me you left before I took my first breath
When you heard your son was coming, was it fear of death?
I was warm inside mama's womb, waiting for your light
But you vanished into the dark of the night
Eish, they say you decided to go
But why you ran away, I will never know
Baba, why did you run away from me? (yoh!)
You knew Sabelo was coming, why did you leave? (why?)
From wherever you are in the sky tonight
Give me an answer, make it right
Why did you leave your boy behind?
I grew up searching for your face in the crowd
Trying so hard to make a ghost feel proud
Did you think you weren't ready to be a dad?
Or was the pain you carried just too bad?
Haibo, the silence is cutting me deep
Every night before I go to sleep
Baba, why did you run away from me? (baba!)
You knew Sabelo was coming, why did you leave?
From wherever you are in the sky tonight
Give me an answer, make it right
Why did you leave your boy behind?
Sabelo is still waiting...
Eish, Baba.
Sharp sharp, till we meet.
