A Diva Like Me
What a Diva like I did is raise four kids as a single mother in church
Used my hard times, hurts and pains, turned it into this work
You ain't never to old
It ain't never to late for you to go for the dream you want
Heard Steve Harvey say if you gone get it, you gone have to just "Jump"
I use my four kids, four grand kids as fuel I need to just leap
I used my passion and creativity to make sure I land on my feet
You gotta get over the pain
Shine above the struggle
To solidify your faith
The GranDiva came not to secure a bag, boo I came to secure dat safe
Diva's write big checks for big projects
Makeup lines and boutiques
She works nine to five, five to nine to make sure her fam eat
The goal ain't never too high
She ain't never too low, to go for the things she wants
Like Steve Harvey said If, you gone get it, you gone have to just jump!
A Diva want from a stripper pole to a tv role on reality tv
Went from a tv show to a bankroll and billboard baby
In whatever lane, on whatever level, solidify your place
The GranDiva came not to secure a bag, she got the combination to the safe
Cause
A Diva like me, go get it!
And, Diva's like you, go get it!
A Diva like me, go get it!
And, Diva's like you, go get it!
What you ain't know?
Say, you ain't know?
Oh, you ain't know?
Yeah! You betta ask somebody though!
A Diva like me, go get it!
And, Diva's like you, go get it!
A Diva like me, go get it!
And, Diva's like you, go get it!
What you ain't know?
Say, you ain't know?
Oh, you ain't know?
Yeah! You betta ask somebody though!
Now they say a woman can't raise a man
Okay, if you say so
But, I bet a Diva can
And I'mma show you just how she do it! Knock em out son!
Aye! She work hard
She play hard
She pay the bills by herself
She get mo doe when she solo cause it pays to be by herself
She ain't never ask for no help
Cause if it ain't God's help, it ain't help
She know how the fraud work so she skept
So, if it ain't God's work, then she step
She ain't got time for no fake friends. don't make dollas, don't make sense
She want that Mary J. Blige, real love
She don't make room for not make shift
They got their eyes on her
They watchin her
Play games, just not with her
Turn the world into popcorn, anybody get popped for her
She grind hard y'all. She get a check, get a check, get a check
She go to work and school, she cook the food, she don't break a nail or break a sweat
She got the confidence of the Covergirl but she sweet as pie like a southern girl
Yeah, you hot like the oven girl
Them real Diva's they run the world, Aaah!
A Diva like me, go get it!
And, Diva's like you, go get it!
A Diva like me, go get it!
And, Diva's like you, go get it!
What you ain't know?
Say, you ain't know?
Oh, you ain't know?
Yeah! You betta ask somebody though!
A Diva like me, go get it!
And, Diva's like you, go get it!
A Diva like me, go get it!
And, Diva's like you, go get it!
What you ain't know?
Say, you ain't know?
Oh, you ain't know?
Yeah! You betta ask somebody though!
What a Diva like I'd do is I'd P.U.S.H through, even in my tears
Projects, welfare checks, just me and my kids
But that didn't define me
Or, my story
I knew one day I'd get the opportunity, for my gift to be, a chapter real BIG!
So, I kept runnin and runnin! I never gave up!
I'm runnin like a track star in a relay wit her hair and nails done
Say you want to bet against me?! Loose your money?
Well, I wish you would
Cause I'll run through a hurricane's wind and rain, and I'm still gone look good
Now all my Diva's holla!
I know you grind too
I see you getting up and getting it
They ain't giving it to you
From the bedroom, to the boardroom, big screen and on stage, You's a bossed, up Diva!
Now tell'em "Get out the way!" Cause
A Diva like me, go get it!
And, Diva's like you, go get it!
A Diva like me, go get it!
And, Diva's like you, go get it!
What you ain't know?
Say, you ain't know?
Oh, you ain't know?
A Diva like me, go get it!
And, Diva's like you, go get it!
A Diva like me, go get it!
And, Diva's like you, go get it!
What you ain't know?

Oh, you ain't know?
