lyrics

No man is my master, bow only to my maker
My Mother, my creator, gave me love that needs no answer
Born into the world with my eyes open
Struggled from when I was young-
Sometimes we live, Sometimes we just survive,
And when it rains it rains, this Earth is paradise
Sometimes we live, Sometimes we just get by
Either way it is a blessing to go on I’m alive
Brother, you don’t have to cry no more
Sister, you don’t have to cry no more
Brother, you don’t have to cry no more
You don’t have to cry no more-
Hey Hey Hey - The time for tears is gone
Hey Hey Hey - The time for tears is gone
Knock me but I don’t fall, never surrender honor
No man can take what he can’t make,
No man is another man’s master
I was but a girl but I knew what I wanted
Strong willed child the day will come-
Sometimes we live, Sometimes we just survive,
And when it rains it rains, this Earth is paradise
Sometimes we live, Sometimes we just get by
Either way it is a blessing to go on, I’m alive
Brothers, you don’t have to cry no more
Sisters, you don’t have to cry no more
Brothers, you don’t have to cry no more
You don’t have to cry no more-
Hey Hey Hey - The time for tears is gone
Hey Hey Hey - The time for tears is gone
Met with hatred, envious and racist
Ignored my own hot temper for God too is their creator
Never run from a fight, nor was I the aggressor,
Stood my ground for what is right-
Brothers, you don’t have to cry no more
Sisters, you don’t have to cry no more
Brothers, you don’t have to cry no more
You don’t have to cry no more-
Hey Hey Hey - The time for tears is gone
Hey Hey Hey - The time for tears is gone
