Sistah, hold onto yourself
You're beautiful and like no one else
Don't be afraid to over-take the world
Sistahgirl, it's all up to you
[Did you know it's all up to you?]
[CHORUS]
Don't stop...
Can't nothin' stand in your way
Don't give up girl
Don't ever believe in the lies of a guy
Or the cover of a magazine
Come together now
Be 'strong and beautiful'...
'Inteligent lady' you are, my sistah...
Sistah, I know it's hard
[I know it's hard for ya]
To be 'daughter'... then 'mother & father'
To your child
Pure inspiration is flowing from inside you
Every minute of every day
And don't you forget it, baby!
[And don't you forget it]
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]
Did you know that
There was such power in you???
Even if no one has ever made it clear
[No one ever told you?]
You're amazing and wonderful and special
There's no limit to your grace
Let your light shine
Don't let anyone dim you out;
...diminish you; mistreat you...
Don't ever let anything defeat you
[CHORUS]
My sistah don't stop... don't stop
My sistah don't stop... my sistah!
Come together now
Be 'strong and beautiful'...
'Inteligent lady' you are, my sistah...
Ladies, put your hands up
This song's for you
Put your hands in the air
If you do whatcha gotta do!
Ladies, come together now
Be 'strong and beautiful'...
'Inteligent lady' you are, my sistah...
Oh ahh, oh ahh, oh ahh, oh ahh...
Oh ahh, oh ahh, oh ahh...
Oh ahh, oh ahh, oh ahh, oh ahh...
Just keep goin'... keep movin'
And groovin'... you can do it...!
[CHORUS]
