**(Verse 1)**
From Kychom town in the Kambia line,
A son of a Paramount chief and foundation memberof the grand old party,the SLPP, born in due time.
He left the shores to feed his brain,
Njala, Cornell, and Illinois rain.
He studied the earth,energy, he studied the trade,
Now look at the foundation that he made.
A scholar of the soil, a man of the degree,
To set the people of Salone free.
**(Chorus)**
*Oh, who will carry the torch for the SLPP?*
*Who will lead the nation to its destiny?*
*They say KKY got the vision and the key,*
*To bring the green light, and make the people see.*
*From the UN halls to the country hills,*
*A leader with the global skills.*
**(Verse 2)**
For ten long years in the UN dome,
He ran UNIDO, but his heart was home.
He spoke of the power, the wind, and the sun,
Saying energy access must be won!
Sustainable Energy for All was the cry,
Now he brings that power down from on high.
Mission Three-Hundred, a billion-dollar plan,
To bring the electricity to every working man.
**(Chorus)**
*Oh, who will carry the torch for the SLPP?*
*Who will lead the nation to its destiny?*
*They say KKY got the vision and the key,*
*To bring the green light, and make the people see.*
*From the UN halls to the country hills,*
*A leader with the global skills.*
**(Bridge)**
Some say he left the party, some say he came back late,
But the coalition aligned to change the nation's fate.
With Maada Bio he stands, in the initiative so grand,
Fixing climate, food security across the holy land.
No more division, no more tribal talk,
Just a steady, righteous, development walk.
The international banks, they know his face and name,
He plays the global economic development game.
**(Guitar Solo - Soulful, bluesy reggae style)**
**(Verse 3)**
To succeed the President, the arguments are clear,
He brings the global funding that the nation holds dear.
An expert in the agriculture, an expert in the grid,
Fulfilling the promises that the ancestors did.
The elders might debate, the youth might shout his name,
But Salone needs a doctor to heal the poverty pain.
**(Outro)**
*Kandeh Kolleh... the energy man.*
*Light up the city, light up the village, light up the land.*
*Roots reggae music, playing for the peace.*
*Let the development increase.*
*KKY... the green light runner.*
*Yeah, man. Positive vibes.*
*(Fade out with heavy bass and echoing drums)*
