'M just a young b-girl
Living in a world of passion and pain
Living in a world of passion and pain
What will it take for me to repay
It's because of you
I'm such a strong woman
I'm such a strong woman
In poverty we manage to see
A beacon of truth
Past every resentment
Past every resentment
Once in my life I was so cold
You filled every void with melodies
You gave life to me
Taught me every prayer
I light a candle tonight for you
You would walk the streets bare
To make sure I walk in the right shoes
So serene and secure
You gave this young b-girl lullabies
We've had our share of breaking down
Through the tears and the doubt
With or without our men
With or without our men
Showed me the light of brighter days
You're a warrior now
Searched and you found your way
Searched and you have found your way
Once in my life I was so cold
You filled every void with melodies
You gave life to me
Taught me every prayer
I light a candle tonight for you
You would walk the streets bare
To make sure I walk in the right shoes
So serene and secure
You gave this young b-girl lullabies
