Mama Said

Mama said there'd be hard days but life is what you make it
Mama said there'd be hard days but life is what you make it

My mama said that I'm beautiful
She said I can do the impossible
She said you could rule the world girl you never know
You only fail if you don't start
She said your'e a work of art
My mama said I'm incredible
She said baby girl you're exceptional
She said no matter how they try
Don't let 'em steal my show
They can't audition for your part
Girl just finish what you start

I ain't tryna hear what yo momma said
Cuz my mama said I could shine
If yo mama said me and you are the same
I would say yo mama is a lie
My mama said
No matter how you try
You may never be a bird in the sky
But with the perfect pair of shoes
And the perfect attitude
Girls like you were born to shine
Mama said
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger
Mama said so
If it hurts too much to hold on
That's when it's the time to let go
And I get it from my mama
I got that right from the get go
Behind a successful man
Successful woman Queen the list goes on
My mama told me never give yo haters too much info
Money can't buy happiness
Try not to be late on the rent tho
If there's ever too much pressure
Do what diamonds do it's simple
Shine the brightest because you deserve the finest
Don't forget what mama said

My mama said you could wish on every star
Write letters everyday to Santa Claus
She said dream when you sleep
But if you don't move ya feet
Girl them dreams ain't gettin very far
My mama said no matter how it seems
One day the world gon need a new queen
She said if you put in work
And dust them haters off ya shirt
You could do what
Fenty did to Maybelline
