GOOD WOMAN DOWN

In my life I seen it all And now it's time for me to pass on this knowledge to you All my sisters, my troubled sisters This is my gift to you Mn… Been many days couldn't take the pain Thought I should take my life away See it everyday and every other young sister's pain See I'm crying now Mind full of doubt Running in the streets No self esteem Thinking that used to be me What a shame And life as a mother It's hard to sit back and see What happened to me happened to you This ain't love.... It doesn't matter what they say or do Don't let it get to you Don't be afraid you can brave through Take what I been through To see that you can't hold a good woman down Been to the same point of giving up Like I had enough Went to the edge of the ledge but I didn't jump Mind I could sum it up You can't hold a good woman down Woo When I used to see my daddy beat my mommy down Down to her feet I used to say that ain't gonna never be me Now look at you, bruised up from him Girl recognize you're better than him Telling you that he'll never hit you again You don't cry And life as a mother It's hard to sit back and see What happened to me happened to you This ain't love.... It doesn't matter what they say or do Don't let it get to you Don't be afraid you can brave through Take what I been through To see that you can't hold a good woman down Been to the same point of giving up Like I had enough Went to the edge of the ledge but I didn't jump Mind I could sum it up You can't hold a good woman down Girl you change as I will hold your hand Use my song as remedy whenever you're feeling down and blue I'll be there for you Plus to know that I've been where you come See the things that you can see Looking at you resembles me But you gotta hold your own It doesn't matter what they say or do Don't let it get to you Don't be afraid you can brave through Take what I been through To see that you can't hold a good woman down Been to the same point of giving up Like I had enough Went to the edge of the ledge but I didn't jump Mind I could sum it up You can't hold a good woman down You can't hold me You can't hold me down You can't hold me You can't hold me down You can't hold me You can't hold down a good woman down Wow wow You can't hold me down Can't hold me down Can't hold oh… There you have it I'm still with you my sisters My troubled sisters, I still have troubles too You're not alone, I'll always be there for you Rock on You can't hold a good woman down
