part i
[chorus]
the strongest woman that i know
the most inspiring, the strongest willed
her legacy shall never wilt, shall only grow
my grandmother, my dadi, she is my bro
the strongest woman that i know
the most inspiring, the strongest willed
her legacy shall never wilt, shall only grow
my grandmother, my dadi, she is my hero
[verse 1]
my granddad had dementia, every day a groundhog~day
every day erode away, every day he lost his way
alzheimer’s, brain on a timer
watched the greatest mind collapse like a cave in mine, uhhhh
but dadi stuck with him throughout, this old~timer
beside him every single day, major and minor
cared for him long after he forgot her name
sat beside him, 9 years, went through all the pain
with a love for red wine and sudoku puzzles
dadi with a glimmer in her eyes as she scrimbled numbers
sight deteriorating, but her vision always clear
in a saree in the cold, sipping on a dutch beer
when we were kids with our cousins staying late, wacky/chatty
used to wake up dadi, beg and ask if she could make us maggi
extra b~tter like the love she always showered upon us
dadi we gon’ carry on your legacy and that’s a promise

[chorus]
the strongest woman that i know
the most inspiring, the strongest willed
her legacy shall never wilt, shall only grow
my grandmother, my dadi, she is my bro
the strongest woman that i know
the most inspiring, the strongest willed
her legacy shall never wilt, shall only grow
my grandmother, my dadi, she is my hero
[verse 2]
gossip queen, xoxo, exabytes of conversation
on the phone with her girlies, sharing all the information
reminiscent of the days of the curfew in the past
when dadi and her friends used to sneak around the raj
avoid the british soldiers, as they snuck around the guards
through the narrow alleyways, delivering messages in vast
god bless the queen, but this absolute queen, always got the gleam whenever she rocked with cards
or she pockets all the queens whenever she plays carom
talcum powder on the board, talcum powder on her skin, madame
chewing on tobacco in abundance
so much so, that the doctor even tells her not to back up
i learn perseverance, and am learning from her still
honesty and loyalty, the qualities instilled
a heart full of gold, a will made of steel
a soul made of diamonds, her smile is a steal

part ii

[verse 1]
my momma, she shows her love in many ways
taking us for skating, basketball, waiting for us every day
or running with a broken leg to catch the bus to school
or playing my songs on repeat for the views
the pride in her eyes are (horizon) looking crazy
the way she, sends me clippings of easy recipes for gravies
or articles of health or wealth for me to not to stay lazy
i gotta say man, this lady, she’s amazing
she shows her love in my ways
the way she comes and dances with me in the monsoon rains
or backseat rides on her scooter, going out to eating some maize
with plastic raincoats, coming back and wade through water in our lane
she shows her love in many ways
making feelgood food, putting up with me on worst days
keeping up with my craze, for music, film, and every phase
learning references and phrases just to keep up with my pace
[chorus]
and i get it from my mama
and i get it from my mama
the values and the vibes man i get it from my mama
the care and the spirit man i get it from my mama
and i get it from my mama
and i get it from my mama
the values and the vibes man i get it from my mama
the care and the spirit man i get it from my mama

[verse 2]
she used to be a shooter, so her thoughts are very piercing
and with a love for mountain~climbing, her persona is so fierce and
no wonder she summited all the peaks of her life
razor sharp wit and a way to just see through all the strife
she studied the biology of microbes and such
so she can pick up all the details, she’s perceptive, so much
she can tell when i’m lying just by looking at my face
she’s the glue of the family, no one can take her place
my sister’s birth was fine, but then i was born, a f~cking menace
and i used to cry on holidays and trips, and embarrass
she would have to put aside all her joy to make me smile
i apologize for that, when i’m older, we’ll go venice
or maybe to j~pan, cause she’s always loved tokyo
buy her fancy things, i won’t lie like pinocchio
from saris and jewelry, she deserves all of it
i love you from the bottom of my heart, i’ll honour it

[chorus]
and i get it from my mama
and i get it from my mama
the values and the vibes man i get it from my mama
the care and the spirit man i get it from my mama
and i get it from my mama
and i get it from my mama
the values and the vibes man i get it from my mama
the care and the spirit man i get it from my mama

part iii

[verse 1]
now my sister, tarjani, but everyone just calls her tj
when were young we used to fight, scratch skin like djs
man i was such a rat, all her drama made my field day
i feel ashamed now but back then i used to feel great
a tattle tale, tekashi, rattle~snaked her out badly
one battle, she disowned me completely i cried sadly
cause i knew deep down, that she was my partner~in~crime
beat my bullies up in school, and they never paid no mind
but that was 10 years ago, and we’ve never fought since
everything changed when she left the nest, i winced
and when she flew back for her holidays we chilled
asked her for advice with love, colleges and tips
the truth is, all the pop culture, bops, romcoms
even movies that were flops, colours on tops
what to search in shops, how to think outside the box
how to beware of the hawks, all the props goes to her, that’s on god

[chorus]
and she the carmen to my juni, you see
we like spy kids and she always sides with me
and we roast each other, when she fights with me
she my beacon she my rock, she my light to see

[verse 2]
the fact that i can quote camp rock, or drink beer like shamrocks
in an audience i can talk, is cause of her, she the hanc~ck
post alcoholism, yet she showed me how to down bottles
proofreads my cvs, she’s my role model
she’s persevering, and she’s super street smart
emotional intelligent, don’t even let me start
communication, she can make friends with anyone
that’s why it hurts when she invests and doesn’t get the dividends
we share a single brain cell, and the references we know
a passer~by could look inside and think that we were smoking dope
the ability to talk in dialogues and lyrics overflows
and the care and the affection we have, well it shows
but i’ll always be by her side, and i know our kids will bond
because if i didn’t have my sister, i would be all alone
so like in drake and josh, i will pick her up when she is down
and she will do the same cause we are number one

[chorus]
and she the carmen to my juni
we like spy kids and she always sides with me
and we roast each other, when she fights with me
she my beacon she my rock, she my light to see
