Hey There Captain
[Intro]
[Chorus]
Hey there, Captain,
You’re showing Burkina Faso the way
My heart, it smiles—sunrise in my day
That’s just my style—Captain of love, leading with kindness
You shine from inside, beauty you can’t hide
Do you wanna go for a ride?
I see you making changes, moving with the tide
Everywhere you go, you lift the people high
On the other side of the world
Your light shines, like no other
Beacon for the free,
You’re walking in your destiny
[Verse 1]
They say you have no experience,
But you’ve lived the story, felt the evidence
Corruption touched your sacred land,
You’ve known the ache, the heavy hand
Your heart’s been drained, still you remain
I feel your heart, though we’re oceans apart
I see you, I know you,
Your heart’s like mine, a rare find, it’s true
You carry the scars, but you walk with pride
A soul on a mission, can’t run, can’t hide
Every step you take, you break the chain
Turning struggle into wisdom, loss into gain
[Pre-Chorus]
Hey, Captain,
You are protected, not just by your tribe
But also by mine,
I see you across the world,
Your light shines like a beacon for the free
Keep leading,
Keep justice on your tongue
The ancient mother’s awakened,
She calls for the return of her land
[Chorus]
Hey there, Captain,
You’re showing Burkina Faso the way
My heart, it smiles—sunrise in my day
That’s just my style—Captain of love, leading with kindness
You shine from inside, beauty you can’t hide
Do you wanna go for a ride?
I see you making changes, moving with the tide
Everywhere you go, you lift the people high
On the other side of the world
Your light shines, like no other
Beacon for the free,
You’re walking in your destiny
[Bridge]
No more rape, no more escape
Stop the madness, it’s time to unite
We are enough—hearts of gold, bold in the fight
Our love outweighs those who sold their souls
It’s the light against the dark
We hold enough light to tip the scales
Lion King, stand strong,
You are where you belong
Lead from your soul,
Never let your heart grow cold
[Rap/Breakdown]
So many frenemies, knives in the night
But you see through the shadows, you walk in the light
Wolves in disguise, but you’re wise,
Eyes wide open, mind sharp as the sunrise
You’re protected, no matter their schemes
Your heart’s too pure, you live your dreams
Your love for humanity is the cure
Storms may rage, but you endure
Even when the night is long,
Your courage is a song
Children of the sun are watching, learning to rise
You teach them to be fearless, with wisdom in your eyes
[Chorus / Outro]
Hey there, Captain,
You’re showing Burkina Faso the way
My heart, it smiles—sunrise in my day
That’s just my style—Captain of love, leading with kindness
You shine from inside, beauty you can’t hide
Do you wanna go for a ride?
I see you making changes, moving with the tide
Everywhere you go, you lift the people high
On the other side of the world
Your light shines, like no other
Beacon for the free,
