Children Of Zeus Still Standing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah [x4]
Mother told me to keep on
I know god has a plan for you
Mother told me to be strong
Cause your strength, it will define you
You accept what you deserve
Cause you deserve what you accept
She told me son, don't you forget
Cause what you give is what you get
This is why I'm still standing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This is why I'm still standing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This is why I'm still standing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Cause I listened when my mother said
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mother told me to stand up
For your rights, don't you be afraid
And if life gives you lemons
Then just make you some lemonade
And don't give in to tempation
It's not so green on the other side
No matter what situation
Always carry yourself
This is why I'm still standing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This is why I'm still standing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This is why I'm still standing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Cause I listened when my mother said
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
My mama don't smile like she used to
Guess this ain't the life that she's used to now
To spread love and stand proud
She still smiled when I drew a picture on the couches
Studied hard so we never went hungry
Worked two jobs so I could see other countries
Head full of dreams
Just ignore all them gunshots
As long as I'm happy, don't worry 'bout them Dunlops
Mum, watch me
Look, no hands, they can't stop me 'til my foot goes down
And most times my mama speaks the queen's english
You make her mad, Bajan cuss words
She means business
I've been witness to that cold stare
And when my bro went away we shared the most tears
And now you're back in Barbados
Don't worry, keep jammin'
Love is the bond and the reason I'm still standin'
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This is why I'm still standing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This is why I'm still standing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Cause I listened when my mother said
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This is why I'm still standing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This is why I'm still standing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
This is why I'm still standing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Cause I listened when my mother said
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
