“12 years since we lost you, dad. I wish you could see this… I’d say you wouldn’t believe it but you knew what I would achieve even back when I couldn’t. Hug your people today y’all. Tell em you love them. It matters.. all the hugs and love I gave my daddy are still here. I can feel it. Love never dies.” She captioned her post.

And on her Instagram Story, she posted a journal entry she wrote in honour of her father.

“12 years today since I lost my father. 6 years since I realized you can’t lose anyone you love. Dad your flesh weakened but your spirit is strong and I know because you move me like wind at my back.

“I hear your quiet voice in my head as I walk my path. And when [I’m] holding the mic so tightly my fingers cramp and I am afraid – you hold my hand. You breathed life into me and as long as there’s air in my lungs you are here.”

In December 2020, the “Good as Hell” singer, 32, surprised her mom, Shari Johnson-Jefferson, with a brand new car.

In the footage, Johnson-Jefferson could be seen breaking down in tears when she finally sees the car, before turning around to give her daughter a hug.

“Got my mommy a brand new Audi for Xmas 🎄I remember crying in my car when my daddy passed, no job no money nowhere to live, wishing I could one day provide for my family. I couldn’t do it for my dad so ima make sure I spoil Mama. Happy holidays y’all”. Lizzo added in the caption.

January last year, Lizzo opened up about her father’s death, telling CBS This Morning that she was a student at the University of Houston at the time and dropped out of college soon after.

“I kind of really gave up. I was depressed. Didn’t have a purpose, like I didn’t feel like I had a purpose for being a musician or anything. So that turned into, ‘Oh can I sleep on your couch,’ and that eventually, I got really guilt-ridden. So all I had was this car. It was a Subaru.” she said.

“That was my home for a little. I spent Thanksgiving in that car, and I remember I cried myself to sleep,” Lizzo recalled.

Eventually, she picked herself back up. “I used everything that happened to me and made myself stronger,” She added.

Lizzo took home three Grammys last year for best pop solo performance for “Truth Hurts,” best traditional R&B performance for “Jerome” and best urban contemporary album for Cuz I Love You (Deluxe).
