Rises a rhythm—a sacred song,
Passed through blood, through bloodlines deep,
A legacy rooted in faith to keep.
Mothers praying in quiet nights,
Holding on through struggles and fights,
Their voices rising, fierce

IF TOMORROW STARTS WITHOUT ME
If tomorrow starts without me,
And I’m not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
