My African Queen

"Behind  every successful man there is a woman  who saw his walk of shame until he walk in fame"

My African Queen 

She taught me how to smile 
When all i knew  was to cry 
She told me that i should always try 
Is like  i know how  to fly 
Up in the sky 
She took me and  hid me  on her arms 
I swear life can't  hurt a Fly 

My dreams are beyond hellow
I want to  follow my dreams like a shadow 
Build my own  empire as  Jaylo 

In the  midst of my battle

She came and taught me how to have  fun 
That day we fought 
I was Drunk 
There is a thin line between love and hate 
She's  mine, the line will never be crossed 
Though hatred  is contagious 
It Doesn't  stand a chance 

Love is  putting someone needs before yours
Love over everything 
Everyone  complain
Love is blind 
But Nothing beats the feeling 
Is a feeling no one can't Explain

When my art is not taken into consideration 
She's always there telling me how self _ determination  really matters  
if self _ determination is the key to success why am I still locked behind these walls?
How i love it when we  argue 

She 'll never know how much I love her
Words could never explain the feeling
Actions speak louder than words 
What my heart feels
Or what i wish i could say
Saying i love you 
Sounds so simple 
Saying she  mean the world to me
Just not enough 

There is no definition 
That could truly describe my love for her
Love bigger than the four letters 
Where everything matters 
Far more beautiful than it appears 
Because of all this and more 
You'll never know how much i love her 
She's my African Queen
