Etana - I Rise

Jamaican Woman

I am black and I'm strong in every way
(Strong black woman)
Troddin' to the top of the mountain
Jah Jah in control of my life, have me steppin'
I'm in no fear, I'm in no fear, no foe

Oh the pressures of life surround me
And the triflin'(?) strife it confound me
...? come a bubblin' like a pot
And my blessin's come up to the max
(To the max)

I'm a strong (strong, strong, strong) Jamaican woman
I'm a strong, strong, strong Jamaican woman
I'm a strong (strong, strong, strong) Jamaican woman
I'm a strong, strong, strong Jamaican woman

Woman, ay-yo
We're livin' in a God blessed country (we're blessed)
Where the women them have natural beauty
So we're black and we're brown
If we turn it up loud, and we make the system come ...?

If we let go negative vibration (let go negativity)
Strictly love in a this here iration (iration)
More love we ...?
More strength we ...?
Strong woman sing this conscious song

I'm a strong (strong, strong, strong) Jamaican woman
I'm a strong, strong, strong Jamaican woman
I'm a strong (strong, strong, strong) Jamaican woman
I'm a strong, strong, strong Jamaican woman

A strong jamin(?) woman will step up to the plate
And work to acheive her goal
A strong jamin(?) woman respects herself
Assertive and takes control

A strong jamin woman deal with ...?
Not no ray ray, no way
She's a lover, she's a leader, she's a fighter
Hear what I say

I am black and I'm strong in every way
(Strong black woman)
Troddin' to the top of the mountain
Jah Jah in control of my life, have me steppin'
I'm in no fear, I'm in no fear, no foe

Oh the pressures of life surround me
And the triflin'(?) strife it confound me
...? come a bubblin' like a pot
And my blessin's come up to the max
(To the max)

I'm a strong (strong, strong, strong) Jamaican woman
I'm a strong, strong, strong Jamaican woman
I'm a strong (strong, strong, strong) Jamaican woman
I'm a strong, strong, strong Jamaican woman

I'm a strong (strong, strong, strong) Jamaican woman
I'm a strong, strong, strong Jamaican woman
I'm a strong (strong, strong, strong) Jamaican woman
I'm a strong, strong, strong Jamaican woman
