Ba, ba, ba-da-ba
You weren't around, it felt like you weren't around
But lookin' back on myself, I wasn't ready to be found
I was fuckin' about, like boxer losin' round
Ignorance was my method, all you had was profound
Messages 'bout my natty head, turned it into a crown
Lessons about my heritage, what it means to be brown
There's no charade, where Black Messiah's in chains
Some racism that's ingrained, black lady you are the sound
Of my freedom, freedom, that's for myself that is
I mean, you made me put the pills back on the shelf my dear
Straightened me out, like father's leather belt back in
The sixth grade, yeah, I can still feel the welts from here
Gave me food for my soul, straight out of your mind
Throw shade on my parade when I stray out of line
Safe to say you're my sanity at this point in time
Although you're crazy, but you're just as crazy as I
So ay ay, capitan
Show me love, give me strength through the night
Love me well, love me well, show me light
Show me light, show me love, show me you
'Cause all I need, all I need's all in you
There's strong women where I'm from
There's strong women all around, strong women all along
Strong women where I'm from
Yeah
The mothers, the aunties, the grandmothers
The sisters that ain't blood, but still, they still love us
If you've ever been a father, a son, a little brother
Then you understand the love I describe is real, brother, yeah, yeah
I got a lot of admiration for you
Give me the signal and you know that I'll be waiting for you
I don't know why they disrespect you when you sacred and true
I wanna take you to a view and get a table for two
Strong women, I tell my mama, she mean more to me
She gon' tell me if she feel like I've been with the wrong women
I still remember my grandma, must've been fifteen
Since we shared time, everything you said to me is clear now
Got a couple kids now, their mother is a queen
But we couldn't make it work, but I know that doesn't mean
That we bad people, and that I still see you
I'm turnin' into you, and every word I say is true
Like you taught me
Show me love, give me strength through the night
Love me well, love me well, show me light
Show me light, show me love, show me you
'Cause all I need, all I need's all in you
There's strong women where I'm from
There's strong women all around, strong women all along
Strong women where I'm from
Strong, tall, beautiful
Strong, short, beautiful
Strong, scars, beautiful
Ba, ba-ba, ba-da-ba
Ba, ba, ba-da-ba
