To keep a roof up over our heads
wewe chose life for me
No wewe never gave up
I admire wewe for the strength wewe instilled in me
wewe were so young
wewe were just my age when wewe had me
Mom, wewe were so brave
There was nothing that would stop au get in our way
And I know wewe will always be there for me
So when you’re Lost and you’re tired
When you’re broken in two
Let my upendo take wewe higher
Cause I still turn to wewe (3x)
It was ’94
The mwaka that everything started to change
From before, wewe had to be a woman
wewe were forced to change your ways
To change your ways
Then wewe found the Lord
wewe gave your life to Him
And wewe could not ignore
The upendo he had for you
And I wanted zaidi of your heart
So when you’re Lost and you’re tired
When you’re broken in two
Let my upendo take wewe higher
Cause I still turn to you.
I don’t know what I’d do if wewe left me
So please don’t go away
Everything that wewe are is who I am
Who I am today.
So when you’re Lost and you’re tired
When you’re broken in two
Let my upendo take wewe higher
Cause I still turn to you. (3x)
Cause I, I turn to you
