[intro]

[verse 1]
most educated person is the black woman
same reason most patient people is black women
in they locs and they braids they hold their energy
a n*gga got a platform to say because of black women
i seen my sister get sat down and sat with
so you gon’ catch me in the pews if that’s what jesus do
matter o’ fact he look like her more than he look like you
matter o’ fact he prolly hate you n*ggas if we speaking truths
to top it of my girl graduated top of her class
and i ain’t know her back then but i’m still proud of her
and you can tell it ain’t no cap and no gown
she cross the stage, there’s a reason the arena gettin’ loud for her
and you ain’t trippin’ toss it up in the air
you should fly, throw your cares in the air, i swear to * , i swear to *
mama call say your sister was here
and through the phone it was all i could hear
and it sounded like
[hook]
my mother’s tears, holy water
hold on and see, you can take it off her
pretty when she cry, she don’t do it often
cuz she hold my, yeah she hold back tears
let’s paint it red, in water colors
created this, let’s go see an artist
pretty when she cry, she don’t do it often
cuz she hold my, yeah she hold back tears
[verse 2]
tears on the hardwood, caution it’s wet sign
couple my n*ggas done caught me up on the westside
black on the outside, my eye match the skin tone
the harder the whip crack, the blacker the tints go
the faster i been goin’, cash me the ringtone
she mastered gettin’ by without a n*gga to ‘pend on
she make her own money man you n*ggas should been known
now shawty look suspicious cuz she black with a mink on
woop*woop, hop in a whip she prolly lose ya
you don’t get respect because our peoples never knew ya
count blacks and blues, we call her baby bruiser
women in my life done make these n*ggas look like losers (y’all look like bums for real)
a black girl breath will change the weather man
a black girl smile will make a better man
a black girl heart, now would you fall for me
we used to pray for rain and clouds now show me all i need is
[hook]
my mother’s tears, holy water
hold on and see, you can take it off her
pretty when she cry, she don’t do it often
cuz she hold my, yeah she hold back tears
let’s paint it red, in water colors
created this, let’s go see an artist
pretty when she cry, she don’t do it often
cuz she hold my, yeah she hold back tears
[outro]
my mother’s tears, holy water (she hold my, she hold back tears)
pretty when she cry, she don’t do it often (she hold my, she hold back tears)
let’s paint it red, in water colors (she hold my, she hold back tears)
pretty when she cry, she don’t do it often (she hold my, she hold back tears)
