Sister

[Chorus:]

Sister you don't have to cry
Everything will be alright
My sister you don't have to weep
'Cause things are getting better

A mother worries about the son she raised
Alone 'cause he is fighting with danger and
It's getting close, but he won't listen
She prays to god and asks him would you please
Protect him but she is not alone

A young girl's lying about the weight she's
Gaining because she is hiding a baby
That her boyfriend says he didn't father
He said he was in love but now he can't
Be bothered but keep your head up high
Little sister

Struggling, trying, working days and school at
Night the bills are piling, patience low and
Pressures high and you can't take it. you say
You'll just throw up your hands but you can make it, somebody understands.

Strong and you're beautiful
You should see, you should know
Strong and you're beautiful
Sister, sister
