Lyrics
Description
(Verse 1)
Morning steam, he hums an old refrain,
Maposa pulls his coat, steps out again.
He mends the gutters where the rain runs thin,
Leaves warm bread on porches for the children.
(Pre-Chorus)
No trumpet blares, no loud parade,
He lets small mercies do the praise.
(Chorus - A)
Maposa, you carry the light,
A steady flame through the longest night.
You lift the small, you mend what’s torn,
Maposa, you turn the dark to dawn.
(Verse 2)
On the cracked corner stoop he plants a fig,
Hands smell of tea and the oil of things he rigs.
When old Mrs. Nala's roof gives way in storm,
He climbs the ladder humming, keeps the family warm.
(Pre-Chorus)
He does not shout, he simply goes,
Where hope is thin, his kindness grows.
(Chorus - B)
Maposa, our steady flame,
You call us home just by your name.
You give your coat, you give your hands,
Maposa, you help us stand.
(Backing: ooh—carry the light)
(Bridge)
Once he pawned his watch to buy a coat, so children wouldn't freeze,
Laid down a little of his own tomorrow to buy today’s peace.
There's a quiet scar on his palm from fixing what the rain had torn,
He buried pride beneath his work and learned to heal what’s worn.
(Chorus - C / Build)
Maposa, you carry the light,
(you carry the light — stacked: ooh-ooh)
A steady flame in the city's night,
You lift the small, you mend the seam,
Maposa, you turn the dark to dream.
(Bridge 2 / Revelation)
He once let anger rise, then chose to forgive instead—
A softer courage, he would say, is what keeps love from shred.
(Chorus - D / Full)
Maposa, you carry the light,
(Choir: Carry the light!)
Maposa, our steady flame,
(Choir: Our steady flame!)
You give your hands, you give your days,
Maposa, you show us the way.
(Outro — Call & Response Gospel)
Leader: Who keeps the dawn when the roads are long?
Choir: Maposa!
Leader: Who hums a tune and makes us strong?
Choir: Maposa!
Leader & Choir (together): Maposa, you carry the light (carry the light!),
Maposa, our steady flame (oh—our steady flame!),
Maposa, a good man forever in our hearts.
(Choir: Forever in our hearts — ahh—)
(End)
Maposa, oh Maposa, keep carrying the light.
