Eish, life was tough without you, Baba.
But I'm standing strong today.
Yebo, hear my story.
Growing up, the house was quiet, no fatherly advice,
I had to learn to be a man, paying a heavy price.
I missed the football games, the talks we should have had,
Sometimes I sat alone, feeling so lost and sad.
I wondered who I’d be if you were by my side,
But I took the pain and turned it into pride.
Sho, I had to find my way.
Baba, are you watching? Baba, are you proud?
I’m the head of the department now, standing in the crowd.
Provincial engineer, I built my own design,
Even without you here, I made the future mine.
Yebo, I hope you see me.
Aweh, I made it through.
Through the dusty township streets, I studied every night,
Dreaming of a better day, chasing the golden light.
No silver spoon for me, just sweat and heavy tears,
Now I direct the province, conquering my fears.
I became the man you should have helped me be,
I hope your spirit smiles when you look at me.
Asambe, we rise!
Baba, are you watching? Baba, are you proud?
I’m the head of the department now, standing in the crowd.
Provincial engineer, I built my own design,
Even without you here, I made the future mine.
Yebo, I hope you see me.
Aweh, I made it through.
I hope you’re proud, Baba.
Head of the department now.
Sharp sharp.
We made it.
