Hesta Banks - Mama's Voice Lyrics

My Mama's voice
Told me not to go slow
Keep it open and just let go
It's my voice, don't be afraid
Get ahead of it

I'm sharing my song, not for her
I'm sharing my song, because of her
Let me be me
Not my Mama
Mama, Mama, Mama, Mama

She did her job but she was careful
I took the seed and made impossible

My daughter, she has flown
Found her own way to be free
And I teach her what I know
And she even teaches me
My daughter, she has grown
In her authenticity

Let's hear your voice
And what you're feeling
Come on, fill the space
You're breathing
We are fighting for a freedom
No more biting our tongue
We make a sound

I'm learning that my voice can be strong
I'm learning how to sing my own song

My daughter, she has flown
Found her own way to be free
And I teach her what I know
And she even teaches me
My daughter, she has grown
In her authenticity

Let's hear your voice
And what you're feeling
Come on, fill the space
You're breathing
We are fighting for a freedom
No more biting our tongue
We will make a sound

I hear my Mama's voice from the deep
I hear my Mama's voice from the deep
I hear my Mama's voice from the deep
I hear my Mama's voice from the deep
I hear my Mama's voice from the deep
I hear my Mama's voice from the deep
I hear my Mama's voice from the deep
I hear my Mama's voice from the deep
I hear my Mama's voice from the deep
I hear my Mama's voice from the deep
