Chanda Mbao - Live On [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: Chanda Mbao]
Dear K, it was just the other day
About to make it pro
I heard you were on the way
Captain of the team
Motivating every play
They considered you family
Now all they do is pray
Trying to ease the pain
Hope you’re in a better place
Cause this world we live in
Is definitely insane
Can’t understand a place where a mother has to see her son
At a body viewing, life over and done
It’s no help that they say the good die young
To bring him back, his momma would have given a lung
But no Lord, I guess is wasn’t meant to be
Got us confused, don’t know what to believe
He wasn’t even in the driver’s seat
And then his sister the next week?
Lord, all I know is we will be waiting
Praying for the reincarnation

[Hook: Eva Ramos]
You know that I miss you
And I will never forget you
You know that I miss you
But you will live on through us
You will live on through us
You will live on through us
You will live on through us

[Verse 2: Chanda Mbao]
Left a lot of broken hearts behind
I’m wondering, is this God’s design?
What to say when a girl loses her father?
The rock of her life, is now a martyr
A symbol of unconditional love
Imagine, when a mother has to leave her son
That’s what I pray against every single day
And every night, so let me say
For those who faced their worst fear and managed lived through
I know that life is not clear but bless you
Cause you persevered and kept going
The tide was high but you kept rowing
Keep smiling and never lose hope
It’s your faith that will save this boat
I know it’s hard but you must be strong
Cause it’s through you that they’ll live on

[Hook: Eva Ramos]
You know that I miss you
And I will never forget you
You know that I miss you
But you will live on through us
You will live on through us
You will live on through us
You will live on through us

You know that I miss you
And I will never forget you
You know that I miss you
But you will live on through us
You will live on through us
You will live on through us
You will live on through us

[Piano: Robert Dante]
