Mama I understand your many sleepless nights
When you sit and you think about Father
Or how you tried to be the perfect wife
You used to dress and fix your hair
Then you smiled through your tears
In the mirror you would stare
And say a prayer
Like I wish he said I'm beautiful
I wish it didn't hurt at all
I don't know how I got here
I was once the one who had his heart
Until you had enough
then you took that ring off
You took that ring off
So tired of the lies and
trying fighting crying
Took that ring off
Oh now the fun begins
Dust yourself off and you love again
You found a new man now
you shine and you're fine
Like it's my time you took that ring off
Mama so sexy
you live and learn
that's just the way life goes
Uh you a killer you a killer killer
Always know that you've got a daughter
That's so so proud you took the high road
You a killer so sexy
You used to dress and fix your hair
Then you always smiled through your tears
In the mirror you would stare
And say a prayer
Like I wish he said I'm beautiful
I wish it didn't hurt at all
I don't know how I got here
I was once the one who had his heart
Until you had enough
then you took that ring off
You took that ring off
So tired of the lies and
trying fighting crying
Took that ring off
Oh now the fun begins
Dust yourself off and you love again
You found a new man now
you shine and you're fine
Like it's my time you took that ring off
After all your tears
After all that pain's all clear
Mama after all them years
We can start all over again
Mama and now it all makes sense
Letting go is never the end
Mama we can love again
This is where freedom begins
Mama so put your love on top
You gon' shine and put your love on top
It's your time to put your love on top
Everybody put your love on top
Aye love on top
Aye love on top
It's your time to put your love on top
Girl you so fine put your love on top
If you're going through it
just know it's called going THROUGH it
If you're not gonna get stuck there
you're not gonna die
You're gonna surviv
