[E] [G]
[G#m] This [D] one's for those summertime [A] drives, those kid blue [E] skies, and those Sunday konga'i [F#m] vibes.
This [E] one's for my mama, [F#m] I'm never gonna let [E] you [C#] down, [F#m] never.
[A] This [E] one's for my mama, [F#m] [E] I'm always gonna make [C#m] you proud.
And this one's for my Polynesian [F#m] people.
[E] To all my [C#] Polynesian brothers, stand up.
My [F#m] tokos and usos, the ganes, don't you know that it is time to [E] man up?
Because we all got our fan clubs, [F#] parents and families, but you're too busy trying to be the [C#m] man.
I believe that we are full of peace [F#m] and love, but we're too busy trying to get our peace and be [C#m] loved.
By a [E] society that fools us into thinking [F#] notoriety is more important than behaving with [E] propriety.
That's what my mama taught me, but I [F#m] was young and dumb, and I was always naughty.
But you [C#m] know now I see it clearer with these eyes, ain't no surprise.
[F#m] And what my mama said was all true, no lie.
[C#m] So now I'm gonna [E] take hold of this chance I've been given, [F#m] to spread love, not hate, in this life that [C#m] we're living.
To only educate and persuade my fellow Polynesians [F#] to maintain, never fall, never back down, and never [C#m] give in.
So now I'm gonna [F#m] take hold of this chance I've been given, to spread love, not hate, in this life that we're living.
[C#m] So never
[F#m] give in.
[C#m] Never fall, usos.
Mama, [F#m] I'm never gonna [C#m] let you down.
[F#] [F#m]
[C#m] [E] I'm always
[F#m] gonna [E] make you proud.
[C#m] I'm always gonna make [E] you [F#m] proud.
Always gonna make [C#] you proud.
Everybody set the [B] table, [C#m] cause you know it's that [C#] time.
[E]
Everybody get a [C#] place, eat your [G#m] problems [E] away, cause at the end of [F#m] the day [C#] we'll be alright.
[G#m] Massive feed with my peeps, that's my [E] cousins, brother and my sister, [F#m] uncles and my aunties, mom [C#m] and dad, nana and partner, we never [B] punch.
Everybody [F#m] was thinking, oh they must be celebrating [C#m] something.
And this is a every single week family [B] function, the safest [F#m] place where all your relatives will try and [C#m] punk you.
Laugh, love, cry and eat together, ain't no [B] frontin'.
Light lunch is nothing, we call [C#m] this a gong'ai.
So let [E] me start you with something called fa'ali for fa [B]'ai.
Boiled [F#m] green bananas, coconut cream is what we munchin'.
Got [C#m] that corned beef on lock, that's a pasu [B]'i on top, [F#m] and a family bucket of KFC if we lucky, [C#m] trust me.
Mama, [B] mama, [F#m] I'm never gonna let [C#m] you down.
[E] [F#m]
[C#m] [E] Mama, mama, I'm always gonna [F#m] make [C#m] you proud.
[E] [F#m] [C#m] They say if you raise a child right he won't [G#m] depart.
But what [F#m] happens when right and wrong gets distorted from the [C#m] start?
What [E] happens when you're told to be strong and keep it in?
[F#m] Like a parasite eating at you from within.
[C#m] And it's hard to change when you're from a small island [B] nation.
With [F#m] small mind and ocean.
Where feelings go [C#m] unspoken.
[E] I guess you could say I'm just another [B] coconut.
[F#m] I'm brown and I'm hairy and it takes a lot for [C#m] me to open up.
Hey, this [G#] could be the one to make you [F#m] sick.
This could be the one to shake your [C#m] head.
Unity shouldn't be no hope for [B] wishing.
But [F#m] it's our mission to ensure that we spread love with no competition.
[C#m] While everybody wondering about [B] the opps they're beating.
[F#m] And even all of the metaphorical grosses [C#m] squeezing.
We can spread some love.
Let a brother know [B] it's okay to speak.
[F#m] And hit that polypenthephalus.
For all my Polynesian.
Trust.
Mama, [B] mama, [F#m] I'm always gonna [C#m] make you proud.
