Sister

Yeah, this song right here is about a lot of different people

Wwomen, I know, family members, things we go through, y'know?

And it just means that, sister

I understand

You can't have trials without tribulations

And umm, sometimes we just need

God to work that out

I'ma kick it like this, look

This beat reminds me of a lounge on a

Wednesday night

Shorty chillin' at the bar ain't have no friends in sight

I rolls up like, "Damn girl, what you in tonight?"

She looked up said, "This ain't how I wanna spend my life"

Tears in her face, fear in her face

Man this ain't about love, she was feelin' disgraced

She said, "In five years I got three kids, two different dadsI'm pregnant now and I don't know who the father is"

Heavy thing, she was tellin' me everything

Her mother became a widow before she got the wedding ring

Shorty was locked in a prison,

I wanted to set her free

But I couldn't, so

I sat and listened

With no intermission,

I didn't interrupt her

To tell the truth, originally

I just wanted to **** her

But, heh,

I was like damn, girl, you gon' be okay?

She turned around and said

Yeah, sister,

I know that sometimes

This world don't treat you, right, yeah

And sister,

I know that he left you

With too many, responsibilities, yeah

Look, love don't love nobody, drugs don't love nobody

So why you put that ****t in your body?

Now we can't have a decent conversation'

Cause she always shakin'

I tried to deny it at first, it bothers me now

Don't ask for money, you done ten dollar'd me out

I even took yo' kids when they put you out the last house

But I will not baby sit while you in a crack house

And I would hate to turn 'em over to the state

Look what

I did, I let they bad-ass stay and just tear up my crib

While you hurt me child, horribly

He asked me, "Why my momma love drugs more than me?"

I couldn't answer,

I sat back and peered in the sky

I thought it was rainin' but damn, there was tears in my eyes

He was like you gon' be alright

Uncle Che?

I'm like man, look

Yeah, sister, don't you know

You're worth, more than gold, yeah(Way more than gold)

And sister, don't you know

I sew what's in your, soul, yes,

I do, yes,

I doAnd I know

Daddy did you wrong

But you got to be strong'

Cause you will see the sun ****ne(The sun's gonna ****ne)

Yes you will see(You will see, you will see, you will see)

The sun ****ne(Yeah, yeah, oh yeah)

The sun's gon' ****ne(The sun's gon' ****ne)

The sun's gon' ****ne(The sun's gon' ****ne)

The sun's gon' ****ne(The sun's gon' ****ne)

I said the sun's gon' ****ne(The sun's gon' ****ne)

Ohh hmm, oh sister,

I knowSister

I know that it gets so hard for you, babe(You don't understand)

And that's why

I'm hereBaby, you should have no fear(That's why I need ya)

Sister, sister, sister, sister, sister
