Yasminah - Hooyo lyrics

[Verse 1] Pearl of my life, after god is who I adore We escaped war and ran from poor Hooyo gave me life to live for She opened doors and closed my pain Told me anything I want obtain That the life we live is just a game And I got to learn how to be a champ Notice how I say yes mom I can Remember those nights when we laid awake On the floor with no bed and no blanket Shivering from the cold but you kept me warm Had me on your chest and around your arms Oh mama, swear I felt so safe And I would embrace and touch your face Wipe your tears off cause you're gonna be okay And we held each other, all night we prayed Woke up in the morning, another day of mourning We hear the gunshots but we got to keep on moving Got to keep on moving [Chorus] She was all I've known when I was sad She gave me hope and made me glad Hooyo was there when they turned on me She made me smile and made me happy Kind of woman that can save the world Made me believe I can be stronger Taught me how to walk and how to talk She gave me all I want, she gave me love [Verse 2] You speak with knowledge and know me too well Mama picked me up whenever I fell Hooyo bled and ached so that she can feed Never spoke back, we scared to get beat She would sing me “huwwa, huwwa” And instantly wann ku farxaa And I would smile, tell her please repeat And by the end of that I would go to sleep She's my friend and everything I have I tell her my secrets with her I share Oh I love her, I swear I can't lie Can't convey how much I care inside When daddy died I just couldn't cry Couldn't understand why he had to say goodbye I was a child but now I know why But you mama, you stood by our side Even though our life was very hard ride I write these rhymes for you to realize And open your eyes so someday We'll be in paradise [Chorus] She was all I've known when I was sad She gave me hope and made me glad Hooyo was there when they turned on me She made me smile and made me happy Kind of woman that can save the world Made me believe I can be stronger Taught me how to walk and how to talk She gave me all I want, she gave me love
