Erica Nicole - Daughter Of The Revolution lyrics

rate me

My mama worked all day,

Came home late to make my dinner

Home from work helping with my homework

Don’t know how she had it in her

Just her and me, we’re a family

She was an angel and a soldier

I wouldn’t be who I am today,

If it wasn’t for a woman like her.

Chorus:

I am a daughter of the revolution

Of women who got it done

In the fight to make life worth living

My mama won.

When anyone else would have given up

She would shake her head, saying you know what?

Sometimes the best man for the job

Is a daughter of the revolution.

I’m standing on a stage, coming home real late

My daughter is sleeping.

I’m raising her to be like the grandma in me

Not afraid of dreaming.

Oh there are roads she’s take

She’ll make her own mistakes

My little angel and my soldier,

I wanna hear her turn and say

With her arms around my shoulders.

Chorus:

I am the daughter of the revolution

Of women who got it done

In the fight to make life worth living

My mama won.

When anyone else would have given up

She would shake her head, saying you know what?

Sometimes the best man for the job

Is a daughter of the revolution.

Yeah yeah

Sometimes the hardest roads

Are the ones you travel alone,

It’s good to know that I can call home and be reminded.

Chorus:

I am a daughter of the revolution

Of women who got it done

In the fight to make life worth living

My mama won.

When anyone else would have given up

She would shake her head, saying you know what?

Sometimes the best man for the job

Is a daughter of the revolution.

Sometimes the best man for the job

Is a daughter of the revolution.

Hey yeah
