[Intro] This
song
was
composed
by
Morgan
Akatoka
for
comforting
brother
Isaac
It’
s
heavy,
I
know.
Just
listen
for
a
second.
I’
m
right
here,
brother
Isaac.
[Verse 1] I
see
you
staring
at
the
ceiling,
lights
off
in
the
dark
You’
re
carrying
a
heavy
weight,
an
arrow
through
the
heart
She
didn't
see
the
value,
didn't
see
the
man
you
grew
to
be
I
watched
you
give
your
everything,
gave
her
all
of
you,
gave
her
all
of
me
Used
to
be
your
sanctuary,
now
the
house
feels
like
a
cage
You’
re
reading
back
the
history,
you’
re
stuck
on
the
final
page
But
listen,
brother
Isaac,
hold
your
head,
the
silence
isn't
your
fault
You
poured
out
all
your
nectar,
but
she
only
wanted
salt.
[Chorus] Ninjishiba
ubukali
wayingila
saana,
ulenfwa
impempo
Nachishupa
kusuminisha
ubwikashi
waukali
wakumutima
elyo
ubwikashi
wachitemwiko
wale
wama
Lelo
waliba
wino
ukuchila
ubukali
wakumutima,
waliba
wino
ukuchila
ubufi.
Namona
muntu
kunuma
yachishingwa
chobe,
namonechishinka
mumenso
yobe
Yeah,
ubushiku
umo
pashita
yimo
twalachiposha
ichisendo
chakumutima,
twalafwaya
ishila
naimbi
iyakupemenamo.
Ndi
brother
wobe,
ndi
kafwa
wobe
shakakushe
weka.
[Verse 2] She
walked
away
from
treasures
that
she
couldn't
comprehend
Left
you
stranded
in
the
middle,
left
you
broken
at
the
end
Don’
t
you
dare
reach
for
the
bottle,
don’
t
you
dare
go
numb
I
know
the
seasons
changing,
and
the
hardest
part
has
come
But
look
at
how
you
carried
us,
look
at
how
you
stood
so
tall
Even
when
the
foundation
cracked,
you
never
let
the
spirit
fall
She
was
just
a
chapter,
man,
she
wasn't
the
whole
book
Take
another
breath,
brother
Isaac ,
take
another
look.
[Chorus] Ninjishiba
ubukali
wakumutima
waya
saana,
uleunfwa
impempo
Nachishupa
kusuminisha
ubikashi
waukali
wakumutima
elyo
ubwikashi
wachitemwiko
wale
wama
Lelo
waliba
wino
ukuchila
ubukali
wakumutima,
waliba
wino
ukuchila
ubufi.
Namona
muntu
kunuma
yachishingwa
chobe,
namonechishinka
mumenso
yobe.
Yeah,
ubushiku
umo
pashita
yimo
twalachiposha
ichisendo
chakumutima,
twalafwaya
ishila
naimbi
iyakupemenamo.
Ndi
brother
wobe,
ndi
kafwa
wobe
shakakushe
weka.
[Bridge] It’
s
gonna
take
some
time,
yeah,
the
healing
process
slow
You’
re
mourning
what
you
thought
you
had,
and
that’
s
okay
to
go
But
don’
t
define
your
worth
by
someone
else’
s
lack
of
sight
You’
re
a
king
in
waiting,
bro,
you’
re
gonna
be
alright
Keep
your
head
up,
let
the
tears
fall,
wash
away
the
past
Nothing
ever
lasts
forever,
and
this
won't
be
the
last.
[Verse 3] I
remember
us
as
kids,
we
had
nothing
but
the
street
Now
look
at
how
you’
ve
risen,
man,
look
at
how
you
compete
This
is
just
a
stumble
on
a
path
that’
s
paved
in
gold
A
story
of
a
soldier
who
was
brave
and
who
was
bold
I
got
your
back
through
the
fire,
I
got
your
back
through
the
rain
We’
ll
turn
this
heavy
burden
into
fuel
for
the
gain
She
lost
the
best
thing
that
she
had,
that’
s
her
own
mistake
But
we’
re
moving
forward,
brother,
for
your
own
heart’
s
sake.
[Chorus] Ninjishiba
ubukali
wakumutima
waya
saana
uleunfwa
impempo
Nachishupa
kusuminisha
ubwikashi
waukali
wakumutima
elyo
ubwikashi
wachitemwiko
wale
wama.
Waliba
wino
ukuchila
ubukali
wakumutima,
waliba
wino
ukuchila
ubufi.
Namona

[Outro] Yeah,
I’
m
never
gonna
leave.
You’
re
not
alone
in
this.
We
move
forward.
Day
by
day.
Just
breathe,
brother
Isaac
and
be
strong.
Just
breathe. [
