Album: For Colored Girls / Pre-Pain Medicine (2010)

That Girl

[Verse 1]
Sticks nor stones wont break my bones
Words only encourage me
Only you can stop the rain
Overcame the pain
And ain't nobody stopping me
When I young, I always knew
There was something in my life I was destined to do
I knew I would be the best that I could be
Fill my life with positivity no negativity
I said

[Bridge]
Mama (yeah) Ima be a star
Mama (yeah) Ima work hard
Mama (yeah) Ima go far
She said you can do anything baby just follow your heart
I know

[Chorus]
I'm gonna be that girl
I'm gonna be that girl
[Repeat 4x]

[Verse 2]
Through tribulations I kept my dedication
I know I can make it
That's the test that I be facing
Pick up the pieces
Reach down inside
Swallow my pride and put jealousy aside
I said

[Bridge]
Mama (yeah) Ima be a star
Mama (yeah) Ima work hard
Mama (yeah) Ima go far
She said you can do anything baby just follow your heart
I know

[Chorus]
I'm gonna be that girl
I'm gonna be that girl
[Repeat 4x]

That girl.
That girl, that girl (I'm going to be that girl) that girl, that girl, that girl
And they say I couldn't do it, I gotta prove it that girl
That girl, that girl, I'm going to be that girl, that girl
That girl hey I'm going to be that girl.....
[Repeat until music faded]
