lyrics

[V1]
I wrote this for the women in my life
Iron ladies who do more than survive
Forget your tiny frames –your face is the sun
Keep ya head up goddess you are the one
I love your brown skin tone and your wholly hair
Never will I play you like some solitaire
To all my Dora Akunyulis ,and the Winnie Mandelas
Flaunt that curves all the street Isabellas
Don’t be shaped by your body type
Godly anatomy don’t believe the hype
Common move my lady at your own pace
Stomp the earth you know you got that grace
Don’t be let down bae by unscrupulous men
Roar roar like a lioness with a dazzling zen
More blessing yo for carrying our fruits
Don’t be silent by Nina Simone in the booth

Hook
I do this for the strongest backs
Women with heart who no dey slack ehnn
I stretch my arms cause you are heaven sent
To all my single mothers yo you are the man [2x]


[V2]
We should love our women ,protect our women
Care for our women –why rape our women
Support our women –guard our women
I respect all my 9 to 5 women
Women like my sistas who hustle like the men them
Who dutty their hands-yo this is ya anthem
Women like my wife who go so hard
Who don’t take a no- a no for an answer
Women like pregnant street hawkers
Wey dey sell bottle water amidst this ruckus
Women like ma with the strongest backs
Who get the truest love that never lacks
I can see most of ya are pained inside
Keep ya head ma don’t lose the fight
Niggas of the world is what that call you ma
But beautiful heavenlies is what I call you ma






Hook
I do this for the strongest backs
Women with heart who no dey slack ehnn
I stretch my arms cause you are heaven sent
To all my single mothers yo you are the man [2x]
