WITHOUT YOU (Zambian Afrobeat)
Intro
(Ayee...)
(Iwe eh...)
(Mmm... Jah bless...)
(Eeh mwana...)
Verse 1
You called my phone after all this time,
Asking if I'm good, if I'm doing fine.
(Ati bwanji?)
Funny how the tables turned today,
Now you're searching for the words to say.
(Ine nili bwino...)
You walked away when I gave my heart,
Thought forever wouldn't fall apart.
Now you see the shine inside my life,
But the pain once cut me like a knife.
(Yahweh...)
Pre-Chorus
I prayed for peace, I never chased revenge.
(Lesa ni wamkulu!)
Time became the healer in the end.
Now I'm stronger than I've ever been.
(Eeeh!)
This is where my story begins.
Chorus
Without you, I'm living my life.
(Nili bwino!)
No more tears, no more sleepless nights.
(Mwilalila!)
You thought I'd fall, but look at me now.
(Tiona!)
Standing tall, I'm making you proud.
Without you, I'm finding my way.
(Mwamvela?)
Every sunrise brings a brighter day.
You can call, but it's too late.
(Too late, mama!)
Some mistakes you can't replace.
Verse 2
You thought my heart would always wait.
(Awe sure!)
Now you're knocking at a closed-up gate.
The love we had became a memory.
(Chapita!)
Now I'm writing my own history.
They say a broken heart will heal.
(Nizoona!)
Time reveals what's truly real.
Every scar became a lesson learned.
(Osadandaula!)
Now I'm fire because I burned.
Bridge
No bad blood, no hate inside.
(Palibe!)
I just chose a different ride.
Wish you blessings, wish you well.
(Lesa akudalitseni.)
Only heaven knows our tale.
Final Chorus
Without you, I'm flying high.
(I'm okay!)
No more asking myself why.
God was with me through the rain.
(Lesa alipo!)
Now I'm smiling through the pain.
Without you, I've found my light.
Everything will be alright.
This is my victory, my truth.
I'm finally free... without you.
Outro
(Ayee... chapita...)
(Nili bwino, osadandaula...)
(Lesa ni wamkulu...)
(Without you... ehe...) 🎶🔥
Spoken.
"Another one from Mathews!"
