Priscilla Peaceful - Raised Strong (We Real Women) Lyrics

(Remain resilient, we real women)
(Remain resilient, we real woman)

Remain resilient, we real women
Remain resilient, we real women
Cuz we were raised strong, we were, we were raised strong
Cuz we were raised strong, we were, we were raised strong

God couldn't be everywhere, so he made mommas
Goddess in the flesh so nothing can harm us
This is for your momma
This is for my momma
This is for our momma's, momma's, momma's

I know you told me, "Remain resilient"
I know you raised us, we are real women
I know you told me it was your vision
I know you raised us, you on a mission
You accept me when I fail, even when I went to jail
You accept me when I fail, even when I did a rail
You accept me when I fail, even when I can't tell
You accept me when I fail, even when I'm hostile
You raised us strong, taught us right from wrong
You deserve this song, an anthem cuz you the bomb
I cannot imagine, calling someone else mom
You did what had to be done, we did this shit all alone
I feel like we been through it all, I feel like we took that fall
I feel like we remain humble, I feel like we will always grow
Momma I cannot thank you enough-nough
You raised us strong, we're so damn tough

Remain resilient, we real women
Remain resilient, we real women
Cuz we were raised strong, we were, we were raised strong
Cuz we were raised strong, we were, we were raised strong

God couldn't be everywhere, so he made mommas
Goddess in the flesh so nothing can harm us
This is for your momma
This is for my momma
This is for our momma's, momma's, momma's

God couldn't be everywhere, so he made mommas
Goddess in the flesh so nothing can harm us.
This is for your momma
This is for my momma
This is for our momma's, momma's, momma's

Cuz we were raised up on the streets
Sometimes we had nothing to eat
Runnin' for the bus, tryna find a seat
Wake up every morning, put it on repeat
You was my momma, through all the drama
Through all the assholes and all the beatin's
You were the one who game me reason
You made sure we were never defeated
I love you with all that I am-am
I know I wasn't planned
I appreciate you for your stand
You were always so determined
Always determined to take good care of us
Always determined to make that grind for us
Always determined to make life fair for us
Always determined, so prepared for us
I put my heart all in these rhymes, rhymes; it's so Damn Devine-vine
Momma this the heart you supplied

Remain resilient, cuz we were raised strong
Remain resilient, cuz we were raised strong
Remain resilient, cuz we were raised strong
We were raised strong
We were, we were raised strong

God couldn't be everywhere so he made mommas
Goddess in the flesh so nothing can harm us
This is for your momma
This is for my momma
This is for our momma's, momma's, momma's

I love you momma, wouldn't be here without ya
I love you momma, wouldn't be here without ya
I love you momma, wouldn't be here without, wouldn't be here without
Wouldn't be here without ya
(Wouldn't be here without ya, be here without ya, be here without ya...)
