Woman (feat. Sharon Irving) - Jackie Hill Perry Lyrics


[Verse 1]Once upon a time we was a bone from the first bodyTo roam 'til it cursedQuiet, now it's goneNow we violent against the silentMomma told me being a woman was hard and she wasn't lyingYour daughter argues with lions to bear fruitI tear through tigers who try to tie us with snares tooTight as we wear it like it's a sweaterI swear America lead us astrayDogging us out like they messed with the gateIt's Esther with faithMordecai remind us of fateRewind to replayThe role we was made forThe game scoresYou see it pointing forward the ancient of days, yourBible ain't changed, yourHighness still reigns, poursShowers as doubt is the object of cowardsI was astounded when I found that that I was of valueI object a power found in the body where idols let me be modestLet me be honest, let me be womanGod forbid I ever tell God how it should be done[Chorus: Sharon Irving]Woman woman, you don't knowWhere you came from, please go homeTell us, tell us, who gave you your nameTell us, tell us, who gave you your frameIt's God, it's God, it's God, it's GodIt's God, it's God[Verse 2]Who they tell you to be?A firecracker or fire starter?You oughta knowAlanis taught usDoesn't start with a Barbie with long hair in the partyIt's tragic being in pageantsBeing fake about yourself like you happy with being plasticDid they tell you your body was just a hobby?That being mommy was obviously a problem?Why would you follow his eye on the sparrow?Why would you fill your quiver?God forbid that these arrows make your road more narrowMake your life little harderEden my daughterYou taught us calling was part of falling in love with the FatherAbba, I'm done trying to barter with this cultureYeah, I done trying to spar up with them vulturesFlying over what's dyingTomorrow I'm a wifeYesterday I was a motherToday I'm just a womanNext week I'm just a sisterLook I'm more than just a pictureWhat am I: I'm a woman that's made in God's image[Chorus: Sharon Irving]Woman woman, you don't knowWhere you came from, please go homeTell us, tell us, who gave you your nameTell us, tell us, who gave you, your frameIt's God, it's God, it's God, it's GodIt's God, it's God
