Letras: Heather Headley. This Is Who I Am. Sista Girl.

This is for my sistas
And all my sista girls, yeah

She was five foot nine if she didn't wear shoes
Body like a goddess, walk by her own rules
Reigned supreme over her ghetto kingdom
Possessed intellectual wisdom

Any man she met wanted a piece of her
Bought her fine things in hopes to creep with her
Talked like twenty five, looked like twenty three
Who could believe the sista's only fourteen

Hold on if you can, cross your legs, forget that man
Someday, you'll look back and understand, sista girl
(Sista girl)
Only a child walkin' around, sista girl
(Sista girl)
Don't let him rock your world, sista girl
(Sista girl)
Sista girl
(Sista girl)
You're only fourteen

Retrospect he wasn't really her type
But he was tall with big hands and the sexiest eyes
So she fell for him and in the blink of an eye
He became part of her for the rest of her life

Four months later considering her plight
Belly's gettin' bigger she saw the plus sign
So she she calls him up hoping he'll ease her pain
Don't remember her name

Hold on if you can, cross your legs fire that man
Someday, you'll look back and understand, sista girl
(Sista girl)
Only a child, walkin' around, sista girl
(Sista girl)
Don't let 'em rock your world, sista girl
(Sista girl)
Sista girl
(Sista girl)
Only fourteen

Hey to the mothers and the daddies
And the sistas and the baby girls

Momma used to say, "Sweet child, the world is at your door
Don't give it all away, just look, there's so much of life in store for you
Baby wait and see, take your time
Feed your mind, be free"

(Hey to the mothers and the daddies)
(And the sistas and the baby girls)
Oh Lord have mercy
Be my world sista girl

(To the mothers and the daddies)
(And the sitas and the baby girls)
Hold on, be strong, sista girl

(Sista girl, sista girl)
You are only a baby sista
(Sista girl)
Sista sista sista sista girl
(Sista girl)
'Cause you're
(Only fourteen)

(Hey to the mothers and the daddies)
(And the sistas and the baby girls)
Listen to the sistas girl

(Hey to the mothers and the daddies)
(And the sistas and the baby girls)
(Sista girl)
(Only fourteen)
Ooh sista

Sista girl, sista girl
Listen sista, sista
Sista girl
