These wise words for my sisters

These wise words for my sisters

Now I may never get to meet you

Or ever get to reach you

But I hope these words lift you up

These wise words for my sisters

These wise words for my sisters

Now I may never get to meet you

Or ever get to see you

But I hope these words reach you

I believe African women are something to be treasured

And you can see them shine like diamonds when they’re under pressure

You’re more precious than gold

For one mortal you’ve got too much soul

I hope these bars will meet up when the nights gets cold

My sister, you a queen

And let nobody come between your god and your dreams

You gotta fly, you spread your wings as hard as it seems

And never stop trying, let God’s words keep your head straight

Like a hot iron

Please, love, do your whole work from the start

Don’t give this coward man a chance to ever break your heart

Always keep it guarded and let nobody in

Mad for forgiving like Joaquin to get up in your jeans

Deceive you, tell you they love you, never leave you

But once they get that they going faster than free food

So you gotta be praying for cuts, you don’t know what the harder man is capable of

These wise words for my sisters

These wise words for my sisters

Now I may never get to meet you

Or ever get to reach you

But I hope these words lift you up

These wise words for my sisters

These wise words for my sisters

Now I may never get to meet you

Or ever get to see you

But I hope these words reach you

Mama, you’re beautiful

And believe me, I am not just talking physical

But you fear you’re getting old and it’s gonna show

And the fact that you ain’t married right now

Or even got any prospect is got you feeling really low

But don’t forget that you’re a queen

And where’s ever been a queen without a king

So don’t rush it, … gotta tell she hot

Take precaution, cross your t’s and dot your i’s

I know you hurting but keep searching for that right person

Rather than just settle in an marry a serpent

You better off being single and know you on your own

Then being married to someone and still feel alone

Don’t be pressured by your parents and people around

Trust in God ‘cause see, he will never let you down

If you believe in the timing of the Man who designed you

Promise you, ma, true love will always find you

These wise words for my sisters

These wise words for my sisters

Now I may never get to meet you

Or ever get to reach you

But I hope these words lift you up

These wise words for my sisters

These wise words for my sisters

Now I may never get to meet you

Or ever get to see you

But I hope these words reach you
