Sister, Sister

Sister sister
I got a story to tell
So I hope you listen up…..
As I speak of the untold story
Sister sister
Oh sister…..
See I been there
and done that
As our ancestors fought
For us to be free
No more raping of our pride
So we can walk with
our heads held high
not down…..pull together
instead of pulling apart
out of jealously and hate
it only leaves you regrets
Sister sister
Oh sister…..
I have watch
as we destroy
Each other
Tryin to be slick
Playing games..dat
Aint my style……
Stepping in my prime
Playing my theme
Just got a story to tell
See I know that
I am something
Black and proud
Strong in my own
And no one can take
that away
Sister sister
Oh sister…..
Hear my cry
Stand on ya own
It don’t take a man
To make me
But he can be there
In the flesh supporting
As you do you
And I do me……..
And know who you are
As I know who I am
Feel the vibe within you
We got
that strength...
to talk that talk
and walk that walk
The brains mental power
and we both strive
For the same…..
So stop tryin to be slick
And realize we on
the same side
Sister sister
Oh sister…..
Now I love you and will always
But we’s got to stick together
Do you understand what I am saying
Or did it go flying
Sister sister
Oh sister…..
My sister….
I am something hope
you think your something too

Sister, Sister
Sistaaaah
You been on my mind
Got me worried about you all the time
Life's pressures and cruel intentions
Are way too many for me to mention
It's enough to deal with the toils of society
Always finding a way to try and break me
but oh My sister
Don't fall for the game
Dust yourself off and try again
Needs that lack
Broken backs and stacks of crack
all seem in vain and aint worth Jack
but oooh step back
Cause I came to tell you sister
Your dreams may have been broken
efforts taken as a joke and...
why should I even try
fallin on my face aint fly
Eyes red from swollen tears
Mistreated by fellow peers
Young beautiful faces
ruined by wrinkles down the years
Sister, Sister
Did that man abuse you again
Cheek fell victim to his hand
I'll neva eva understand
Despite all that
Why you claim to be a MAN
Try to grab your crotch, but all I see P*S*Y in your hands
A male whore in a shell of a man
Sister, Sister
My Sister
Please leave those drugs alone
Neglect no more your kids
Make right your broken home
White powder and yellow crumbs
That get you numb and dumb
Broken dreams and padded hurt
Empty beer bottles turning your insides to dirt.
Sister, sister
Oh my sister
sometimes caught in life’s
turning twister
Single parent, all alone
Making ends meet
All on your own
Sister, Sister
~My Married Sister~
Holding together a home
Providing everyday
Respecting God's union
Bonding in matrimony
Sister, Sister
~My Single Sister~
Doing your THING
Strong and Independent
Home the bacon YOU bring
~Many Women of many colors~
Backgrounds and communities
Maintaining our purity
Living in Unity
Learning to LOVE
Setting hate aside
Protecting our inner beauty
Cause IT’S our pride
Never ever run and hide
Though many tears you must have cried
Through it all, we continue to rise
Birthing life into this land
Created by God as gift to man
His better half
His other hand
So the BEST, Always demand
Because your a sister
A beautiful black Queen
My Sister, Sister
What Worth really means
Whoever disagrees
You betta wreck their dreams
Taking what's rightfully yours
BY ANY MEANS!

When sisters truly come together, with good intentions, it is always a good thing. What I felt from this collab was a belief in self respect, self love, and unity. I've always believed in love of self. Anyone who truly knows me, knows that I broke the mold, lol, and I revel in that, almost to a fault. Kudos, ladies.

Expressing love and admiration...as well as support...for ALL Sistas. And, on the way, giving love to us Brothas. I ain't mad at you.

Much love you deserve.

This piece is inspiring. If I were a Sista, I'd be inspired to respond with a pice myself. All Sistas should read this and work toward making it an everyday reality in their lives...imho. Keep it flowing.

:thanks: for sharing a part of ya'll with us.
