Oct 22nd 2020 Lyrics

This is for our mothers, Timothy, Ismail, Kwangwari

Mthembu, Bhengu, Isseri and last but most important, Govinden, listen closely

This is Dedicated to you

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

They don't want us to succeed

But they don't believe

(They won't believe!)

That when I do succeed

I'll tell 'em that I did for you

You be workin' every single day in every single way to keep me at my best

You always did your best to keep me right instead of goin' left

You believed in me when no one chose to bother

You came and chose to be my momma

Your presence made me work harder

Your essence made me burn longer

Thanks to that, I got my first honour

Hands to that, I got my second one

Back to back, I'm a blessed son

Back to facts, I heard your lesson mum

From Erectus to Homo Sapien I evolved

No one has done what you did if I recall

My fam' chose to disregard

Who you regard as your next president

I'm so proud to say:

I'm your son, you're my momma

You're my sun, you made me stronger

You're the one who chose to bother

So I'm in debt not in stress

Nothin' less, always more, at my best

Thanks to you I'm the leader who's next

Soul!

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

They don't want us to succeed

But they don't believe

(They won't believe!)

That when I do succeed

I'll tell 'em that I did for you

You be workin' hard every single day in every single way

'Cause you're a mother not a teacher

Guide us and make me a leader

Keep me straight, you never strayed

To keep me great and keep me on a path that I pave

You saw me at my best when I was at my worst

You being in my life is like my rebirth

I'll do it all so they can see first

All the magic that she works

Is strong enough to make the sea burst!

I wrote this song because

She gave us love, it was true

She brought us up including you

'Cause if she never taught me I wouldn't teach you

She'd never judge me or you

But stay tough so we made it through

Give her love, give her props

Nucleic acids worth her heart

She's my life, my placenta

Her name I shall remember

My Reflex Arc, my Homeostasis

She did good and taught me patience

That's why I love you

Soul!

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

They don't want us to succeed

But they don't believe

(They won't believe!)

That when I do succeed

I'll tell 'em that I did for you

You be workin' hard every single day in every single way

You be workin' hard every single day in every single way

You be workin' hard every single day in every single way, hey

You be workin' hard every single day in every single way 'cause you really care

I wouldn't be here if you were never there

Your words made it through my ear

Me being in your class was a good idea

I have the impulse to succeed 'cause you're my nerve

I thank God for your words

Your mind is an auxin

Not an ordinary organ

Your being is important

Like a Da Vinci portrait

Better than the Mona Lisa

When she speak get a speaker

She a goddess not a diva

She the truth not a liar

Thanks to her I walked on the wire

Did what I couldn't prior

An amino acid in Heaven that's translation

Evil's damnation

Evil won't have me

I have better DNA they won't match me

No punchlines on this verse, my bible doesn't jab

I remember when they used to laugh

I won awards, they started to clap

First to say: "Luyanda congrats!"

I did it 'cause I listened

Did it 'cause I'm grateful

Did it 'cause she's faithful

Did it 'cause she said I'm able

So don't worry about your son

Sit back and enjoy the work you've done

Soul!

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

They don't want us to succeed

But they don't believe

(They won't believe!)

That when I do succeed

I'll tell 'em that I did for you

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

They don't want us to succeed

But they don't believe

(They won't believe!)

That when I do succeed

I'll tell 'em that I did for you

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

They don't want us to succeed

But they don't believe

(They won't believe!)

That when I do succeed

I'll tell 'em that I did for you

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

I do it for you

Momma I do it for you

(I do it for you)

They don't want us to succeed

But they don't believe

(They won't believe!)

That when I do succeed

I'll tell 'em that I did for you

You be workin' hard every single day in every single way

You be workin' hard every single day in every single way

You be workin' hard every single day in every single way

You be workin' hard every single day in every single way

You be workin' hard every single day in every single way

You be workin' hard every single day in every single way

You be workin' hard every single day in every single way

She is our placenta

A limited life but with a message to remember

More than the occupation she holds

A mother, a teacher, she embodies them both

She's so more than a teacher, she's my Reflex Arc

I partly hate myself for seeing you as a deflect mom

I'm sorry, that was a very negative thought on my mind

It was early 2019 and I was about to witness your greatness in time

I wish I wrote this earlier, I'm sorry I forgot

But I remember that you, in a way, are like Lamarck

But not as a demotion, but because you forcefully brought out my best

And increased my self esteem and life in my depths

All you do and have done, you personify Homeostasis

I hope the next generation grows through your greatness

Because when the sun sets, you're an auxin

That acts without a stimulus being exerted on the organ

If maternity was an achievement, you'd be in the Pantheon

You did well in raising me, a foetus, with you as my amnion
