Twenty-five
years,
but
you
stay
strong
Listen
to
the
words,
mama
It’
s
been
twenty-five
years
since
he
left
us
behind
I
keep
counting
the
seasons,
keep
searching
my
mind
You
became
the
pillar,
you
became
the
light
Walking
through
the
shadows
to
make
everything
right
You
woke
up
early,
yeah,
you
fought
through
the
dawn
Even
when
the
strength
in
your
spirit
was
gone
From
the
school
fees
paid
to
the
tears
that
you
dried
You
were
the
only
one
standing
right
by
our
side
Oh,
Matilda
Chanda
Chama,
you’
re
the
queen
of
my
heart
Matilda
Chanda
chama
Matilda
mayo
wandi
You
played
both
roles
right
from
the
very
start
Through
the
fever,
the
heartbreak,
the
pain
and
the
sun
For
us,
you’
re
the
mother
and
the
father
in
one
Yeah,
you’
re
the
one (
ayy,
yoh)
Matilda,
you’
re
the
only
one
You
held
the
discipline,
you
held
the
embrace
I
see
the
history
of
love
written
on
your
face
You
prayed
for
our
future,
you
worked
for
our
bread
While
the
whispers
of
comfort
danced
in
your
head
It
wasn't
easy,
but
you
never
complained
You
stood
like
a
rock
when
the
heavy
clouds
rained
Ifwe
we
are
standing,
we’
re
standing
so
tall
Because
you
caught
us
every
time
we
did
fall
Oh,
Matilda
Chanda
Chama,
you’
re
the
queen
of
my
heart
Matilda

Twenty-five
years
of
pure
sacrifice
You
never
asked
for
a
reward
or
a
price
Just
our
happiness,
our
growth,
and
our
soul
You
kept
the
pieces
and
made
us
feel
whole
