Vry meaningfull song. He should refer to an event happened in his life certainly someone refused to share with him something and he is referring to his own origins. He is a keita and Mbemba probably refers to Soudiata Konaté or keita, founder of the Mading Empire in the 13th century. He says his ancestor gave everything to griots and everythg happens at its time meaning that now things haven change and now nobody knows who is who. Trying to explain the "deep meaning" of this song may take pages.
un bon montage que j'ai beaucoup apprécié ... de belles illustrations, et cette magnifique chanson ... un grand mais très grand merci à toi Trencio1 de tes partages-liens qui sont toujours super top !!!

"M'Bemba" means an origin in Mandinka language. This may mean your ancestors in the wider meaning.

@beaner800 The main idea is that in life things happen with time. I love the song. He is also talking about his ancestor.
