Sister Lyrics - Blue Collar - Rhymefest

Yeah, this song right here is about a lot of different people 

Wwomen, I know, family members, things we go through, y'know? 

And it just means that, sister I understand 

You can't have trials without tribulations 

And umm, sometimes we just need God to work that out 

I'ma kick it like this, look 

This beat reminds me of a lounge on a Wednesday night 

Shorty chillin' at the bar ain't have no friends in sight 

I rolls up like, "Damn girl, what you in tonight?" 

She looked up said, "This ain't how I wanna spend my life" 

Tears in her face, fear in her face 

Man this ain't about love, she was feelin' disgraced 

She said, "In five years I got three kids, two different dads 

I'm pregnant now and I don't know who the father is" 

Heavy thing, she was tellin' me everything 

Her mother became a widow before she got the wedding ring 

Shorty was locked in a prison, I wanted to set her free 

But I couldn't, so I sat and listened 

With no intermission, I didn't interrupt her 

To tell the truth, originally I just wanted to fuck her 

But, heh, I was like damn, girl, you gon' be okay? 

She turned around and said 

Yeah, sister, I know that sometimes 

This world don't treat you, right, yeah 

And sister, I know that he left you 

With too many, responsibilities, yeah 

Look, love don't love nobody, drugs don't love nobody 

So why you put that shit in your body? 

Now we can't have a decent conversation 

'Cause she always shakin' 

I tried to deny it at first, it bothers me now 

Don't ask for money, you done ten dollar'd me out 

I even took yo' kids when they put you out the last house 

But I will not baby sit while you in a crack house 

And I would hate to turn 'em over to the state 

Look what I did, I let they bad-ass stay and just tear up my crib 

While you hurt me child, horribly 

He asked me, "Why my momma love drugs more than me?" 

I couldn't answer, I sat back and peered in the sky 

I thought it was rainin' but damn, there was tears in my eyes 

He was like you gon' be alright Uncle Che? 

I'm like man, look 

Yeah, sister, don't you know 

You're worth, more than gold, yeah 

(Way more than gold) 

And sister, don't you know 

I sew what's in your, soul, yes, I do, yes, I do 

And I know Daddy did you wrong 

But you got to be strong 

'Cause you will see the sun shine 

(The sun's gonna shine) 

Yes you will see 

(You will see, you will see, you will see) 

The sun shine 

(Yeah, yeah, oh yeah) 

The sun's gon' shine 

(The sun's gon' shine) 

The sun's gon' shine 

(The sun's gon' shine) 

The sun's gon' shine 

(The sun's gon' shine) 

I said the sun's gon' shine 

(The sun's gon' shine) 

Ohh hmm, oh sister, I know 

Sister I know that it gets so hard for you, babe 

(You don't understand) 

And that's why I'm here 

Baby, you should have no fear 

(That's why I need ya) 

Sister, sister, sister, sister, sister
