Mother of the Sun

[Intro] Oh mama… Mother of the sun [Verse 1] You carried me through dust and rain Your heartbeat was my first refrain From red earth roads to starless nights You held my hand, you gave me light [Pre-Chorus] When the world was loud and cruel to me Your voice became my destiny [Chorus] Oh mama, mother of the sun You are the place where I come from Your love is fire, your love is drum Oh mama, mother of the sun [Post-Chorus / Hook] Mother of the sun Mother of the sun [Verse 2] You sang my name to morning skies In ancient words and lullabies Your tears fell like the healing rain You smiled through joy, you smiled through pain [Pre-Chorus] Every step I take, I hear you pray Guiding me along my way [Chorus] Oh mama, mother of the sun You are the place where I come from Your love is fire, your love is drum Oh mama, mother of the sun [Bridge] From the baobab to the sea Your spirit lives inside of me I rise, I fall, but still I stand Because I’m shaped by your hand [Final Chorus] Oh mama, mother of the sun My journey ends where yours begun If I am many, you are one Oh mama, mother of the sun [Outro] Mother of the sun… Carry me on
