African Queen

Through the dark days
When the sun shines
You stood by my side
To ease the pains of life

And though we've had our fights
Your light still shines so bright
Cuz ma you brought to life
The man before your eyes

And though the path I take may shake you
I will never let it break you
And if it may I'll heal you
For your aches are my ails too

Don't worry, rest your mind
Tomorrow will be fine
Cuz when I sleep and dream
I see you rule as queen

From the first steps
To all that came next
I can't thank you more
Than to show the world your core

So to you I write this song
As my love to our bond
I hope you sing along
And we'll scream to the amazons

To come from nothing
Your story is touching
Ma how can one woman
Amass to your fortunes
Your glory is mighty
You roar like a lioness
I can't fathom living
This life without your highness
I dance and I prance
In the wake of your presence
Your laugh and your smile
It's infectious for miles

Even when your old and gray
I promise I'll be here to stay
But until then I'll hold your hand
And take you to the highest land

I hate to see you struggle through
This life you built for me and you
So my wish is to struggle too
And come out on the top with you

Jump over every hurdle
Your love is universal mom
Your flesh will be immortal
Internal and external mom

Our family owes it all to you
Our life, our blood, our only muse
We love you more than life itself
And cherish all you've done to help

From the bottom of my heart
I wish the best for you
Are such a shining star
