See Me Mama

Clinton Outten, Emmanuel Jal

Verse 1

hello mama the last time I saw you was when I was seven
I heard the news that you were taken to heaven The soldier said in way that is soft so I would know that you died I cried and I cried and I asked God why?
The worst part was when we capsized in the ship I saw parents coming running for their kids as for me no one did,
Running from the war torn city of Bentiu I remember you but here I am Mama here I am Mama wish you could me now hope you're up in the cloud looking down feeling proud.

Chorus

I wish you could see me Mama after all that Drama
Now am in the big leagues doing big things you will be so proud of me
I wish you could see me Mama after all that drama
Your son is in the big leagues doing things you will be so oh oh

Verse 2

Mama I thank you for sending Emma McCune
Angel to the rescue one afternoon
She kept me in tune and Mrs mumo and Joseph Mumo petrolina and Angelina
My shame has turned to honour the horror and trauma is gone before I was a scone
Now I can confess I bless the day I was born on and on and on
Chorus

Verse 3

Ah I live the way you taught me
I turn the other check like last week like while walking on the street
A white man offended me then the police aprehended him,
Instead of resisting and insisting I remember the words blessed are the meek and before I speak
I seek the advice from your sweet voice in my head praying saying
Go on raise reborn like the dawn of morn of a brand new day
I stand proud to be your child and I hope I make you smile your child

Chorus
Verse 4

Mama if you were alive you would be so proud of me
My name in the magazine my face on TV I travel far and wide Europe and America I speak to leaders presidents prime ministers
I am still a soldier fighting with my pen and I hope some day we'll all meet again
Until that day I pray your alright this is not good bye this is just good night

Chorus.
