Something Wonderful

[Hook] 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 [Hook] [ 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 a source of pride 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 [Hook] [ Verse 3 ] Certain things are too deep to put in a verse Let me apologise to every single woman I've hurt 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 Capila saw her father murdered when the hammers passed So I feel her pain when she tried to murder Farenga 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
