[Verse] Under the baobab shade, the young ones dress so fine Colors bright like morning sun, but they forget old time Twisting threads and shining shoes, a rhythm made of change But the chief just shakes his head, says, "Child, you look strange" [Pre-Chorus] He remembers when we walked barefoot in the dust Now they chase the wind, lost in style and trust [Chorus] Oh, laugh and laugh, old chief, don’t hide your smile The village roads still know your steady style Though they wear the new, your stories hold the past In every thread, your wisdom’s made to last [Verse] Young hearts in city clothes, chasing beats and dreams But at dusk, they hear the drum, bring them back it seems To simple days of laughter, where every step was slow The chief just laughs again, with eyes that softly glow [Pre-Chorus] He remembers when the moon was all we’d see Now they chase the stars, forgetting where roots be [Chorus] Oh, laugh and laugh, old chief, don’t hide your smile The village roads still know your steady style Though they wear the new, your stories hold the past In every thread, your wisdom’s made to last [Bridge] Fashion fades, but the heart stays the same In every laugh, calls out an old name We dance through time, with feet in the sand Bridging the gap, hand in hand [Chorus] Oh, laugh and laugh, old chief, don’t hide your smile The village roads still know your steady style Though they wear the new, your stories hold the past In every thread, your wisdom’s made to last [Outro] Underneath the baobab sky, we find our way Old laugh, young dreams, together they stay
