Lyrics

You do something wonderful

You chase it all away

Mixing my emotions

It throws me back again

I'm trying to be a good man, I can't speak for the others

Know the saying "Heaven lies at the feet of your mother"

Mine showed me the definition of hard working

Smiles through her tears even though her heart's hurting

Speaks her mind and never ever bites her tongue

I guess today you could say I'm just like my mum

Great grandmother was in Beirut in '82

In a flat when it got invaded by Israeli troops

Sleeping in the hallway for shelter from the bullets

And that's why I'll always respect her to the fullest

Physically gone, her memories are kept in a picture

In Baghdad my nan slept with a Beretta in her slipper

You're judged as a man by everything you amount to

And the respect that you show the women around you

So think about this stuff when you diss her

That's somebody's daughter, somebody's mother and somebody's sister

You do something wonderful

You chase it all away

Mixing my emotions

It throws me back again

I'm not claiming to be perfect, I know what a curve is

But a woman's worth isn't just on the surface

I see too many young women craving affection

Degrading themselves for a male's attention

I know it's love that you're certain that you felt

Messing with these different guys, you're just searching for yourself

Would it be whorish to boast how high her score is?

When a man does it, a player is what you call him

What if it's all just lies when she talks to guys?

Displays promiscuous ways like a source of pride

Would it make you squirm if the tables turned?

Is that really what it would take to make you learn?

You're judged as a man by everything you amount to

And the respect that you show the women around you

So think about this stuff when you diss her

That's somebody's daughter, somebody's mother and somebody's sister

I said think about this stuff when you diss her

That's somebody's daughter, somebody's mother and somebody's sister

You do something wonderful

You chase it all away

Mixing my emotions

It throws me back again

Certain things are too deep to put in a verse

Let me apologise to every single woman I've hurt

Or disrespected, whether family members or exes

I wanna make amends for however I left it

Men make them but the women get harmed in wars

I pray for a heart as pure as Assata Shakur's

We put 'em down but on a pedestal we should put 'em

Behind every good man there's a good woman

Betty Shabazz lost her husband to the handguns

And lost her life when her house was burnt down by her grandson

Kabila saw her father murdered when the hammer sparked

So I feel her pain when she tried to murder Farrakhan

You're judged as a man by everything you amount to

And the respect that you show the women around you

So think about this stuff when you diss her

That's somebody's daughter, somebody's mother and somebody's sister

I said think about this stuff when you diss her

That's somebody's daughter, somebody's mother and somebody's sister

You do something wonderful

You chase it all away

Mixing my emotions

It throws me back again
