Something Wonderful Lyrics
Year of Release: 2011
- Something wonderful...
- To chase it all away
- For the women of the world, because women are the world
- Mixing my emotions... to close the bad again
- I'm just letting you know...
Verse 1
- I'm tryna be a good man I can't speak for the others
- Know the saying heaven lies at the feet of your mother
- Mine showed me the definition of hard work and
- Smiles through her tears even though her heart's hurting
- Speaks her mind and never ever bites her tongue
- I guess today you can say I'm just like my mum
- Great grandmother was in Beirut in '82
- In a flat when it got invaded by Israeli troops
- Sleeping in the hallway for shelter from the bullets
- And that's why I'll always respect her to the fullest
- Physically gone, all memories are kept in a picture
- In Baghdad my nan slept with a Beretta in her slipper
- You're judged as a man by everything you amount to
- And the respect that you show the women around you
- So think about that stuff when you diss her
- That's somebody's daughter, somebody's mother and somebody's sister
- Something wonderful...
- To chase it all away
- Mixing my emotions.. to close the bad again
Verse 2
- I'm not claiming to be perfect I know what a curve is
- But a woman's worth isn't just on the surface
- I see too many young women craving affection
- Degrading themselves for a male's attention
- I know it's love that you're certain that you felt
- But messing with these different guys you're just searching for yourself
- Would it whore-ish to boast how high your score is
- When a man does it, a player is what you call him
- What if it's all just lies when she talks to guys
- Displays promiscuous ways like it's all alright
- Would it make you squirm if the tables turned
- Is that really what it would take to make you learn
- You're judged as a man by everything you amount to
- And the respect that you shown the women around you
- So think about that stuff when you diss her
- That's somebody's daughter, somebody's mother and somebody's sister
- I said think about that stuff when you diss her
- That's somebody's daughter, somebody's mother and somebody
- Something wonderful...
- To chase it all away
- For the women of the world, because women are the world
- Mixing my emotions
- I'm just letting you know...
- Something wonderful...
- To chase it all away
- Mixing my emotions.. to close the bad again
Verse 3
- Certain things are too deep to put in a verse
- Let me apologise to every single woman I've heart
- Or disrespected whether family members or ex's
- I wanna make amends for however I left it
- Men make them, but the women get harmed in wars
- I pray for a heart as pure as Assata Shakur's
- We put them down on the pedestal we should put them
- Behind every good man, there's a good women
- Betty Shabazz lost her husband to the handguns
- And lost her life when her house was burned down by her grandson
- Qubilah saw her father murdered when the hammers passed
- So I feel her pain when she tried to murder Farrakhan
- You're judged as a man by everything you amount to
- And the respect that you shown the women around you
- So think about that stuff when you diss her
- That's somebody's daughter, somebody's mother and somebody's sister
- I said think about that stuff when you diss her
- That's somebody's daughter, somebody's mother and somebody
