"Sista Don't You Know"

Sista don't you know you're a shining star no matter who they say you are. You've been changed by the blade of the knife. Your body didn't treat you right. That's ok you can live again you have a chance to live again., WA

Don't be shy take the stars in your hands. Show the world who you are. Your stars are shining through., WA

Sista don't you know you're a shining star no matter who they say you are. You've been changed by the blade of the knife. Your body didn't treat you right., WA

Sometimes you wonder why you've suffered and all the pain you've gone through. But now you look back you're standing so tall your stars are shining through., WA

Sista don't you know you're a shining star no matter who they say you are. You've been changed by the blade of the knife. Your body didn't treat you right. That's ok you can live again you have a chance to live again. You have a chance to live again. (Sista Don't You Know), WA
