Lyrics
Stepped into a world with two clenched fists
They can't pronounce my name because the vowels don't fit
I dropped a syllable just to make it sit pretty
I'm going to speak a language that they understand
I know I got to try to find a way to blend in
Silence is the devil in this household, family
Mama said, I won't raise you quietly
I dress up little Dolly just to have a playmate
Grateful for my books, the dinner on my plate
Counting down the days that I can finally break out of here
Hell's Kitchen queens and the indie rock bands
Dying to stay myself but I'm trying to blend in
Two clenched fists grab the mic and let freedom ring
It's just me and my tambourine
Mama Mama
Oh, she never gave up
Mama Mama
She was the queen of tough love
She lived her life on fire
But she always played it cool
Mama sure raised hell
Mama didn't raise no fool
Speeding down the highway with two clenched fists
Finally got my freedom and it feels like this
Pedal to the medal with the open road ahead of me
Eyes wide open because the world's on fire
Soldier girl fighting trying to lift it all higher
My heart's a kick drum but my soul sings a rhapsody
I wonder what Mama would say if she could see me
Mama Mama
Well, she never gave up
Mama Mama
She was the queen of tough love
She lived her life on fire
But she always played it cool
Mama sure raised hell
Mama didn't raise no fool
Mama Mama
She lived her life on fire
But always knew to play it cool
Two clenched fists and raising hell
Mama didn't raise no fool
Oooh
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Oooh
Ohhh
She got two clenched fists let freedom ring
She got two clenched fists and she keeps on singing
Two clenched fists get your tambourine
And just keep on keep on keep on
Two clenched fists let freedom ring
She got two clenched fists and she keeps on singing
Get your tambourine
And just keep on keep on keep on
La la la la la la la la
Mama didn't raise no fool
Whoa
Mama didn't raise no
La la la la la la la la
Mama didn't raise no fool
