Dear James Lyrics by Hanoch

Amandla

0

Dear James 

Chorus 

I hope you hear me out right there in heaven. 

It feels like Father’s Day every time  I recall back. 

Dear James Dear James Dear James X 2

Verse 1 

I recall vividly 

Use to love me

Put me around your neck like Shoalin 

Coz when it seems like you lost steps

Like drunken master

You held me. 

Bottle hit ground

But I never hit the ground

You took all the scars. 

To me it was a demonstration of love. 

Taught me how to ride a bike

Matching soul brothers

When we swagged up

That’s why I didn’t understand when I saw mama cry. 

Confused child. 

Chorus 

I hope you hear me out right there in heaven. 

It feels like Father’s Day every time  I recall back. 

Dear James Dear James Dear James X 2

Verse 2

I know you were never perfect. 

And I totally understand. 

I’ve learnt from your mistakes

I was never ashamed of you but Ive learnt from your hard lessons

The last time I saw you I had to pray


I Felt betrayed when we left you alone. 

Enjoyed every conversation on the phone

Called me Mfana wami meant a lot

The next minute you were gone

They Called me from home

I was far from home. 

I didn’t have money at all

My eyes got teary when I wrote this song


When I thought we reconnected

Mended

My heart melted


But I know that you were strong

Everyone knew ma “ se but “ win wars. 

The Sickness was never war

I guess it was a way that God used to rest your soul

Chorus 

I hope you hear me out right there in heaven. 

It feels like Father’s Day every time when  I recall back. 

Dear James Dear James Dear James X 2
