Good Woman Down Mary J. Blige

[Produced by 9th Wonder]

[Intro]
In my life, I've seen it all
And now it's time
For me to pass on this knowledge to you
All my sisters
My troubled sisters
This is my gift to you

[Verse 1]
Been many days, couldn't take the pain
Felt I should take my life away
See it every day in every other young sister's fate
(Young sister, sister)
See, I'm cryin' now, mind full of doubt
Runnin' in the streets, no self-esteem
Thinkin' that used to be me
What a shame

[Pre-Chorus]
Damn, life is a mutha, it's hard to sit back
And see the same thing that happened to me happen to you
This ain't love, but here's the love I wanna give to you

[Chorus]
It doesn't matter what they say or do (Do)
Don't let it get to you (You)
Don't be afraid, you can, you can, you can break through
Take what I been through (Through)
To see that
You can't hold a good woman down (Down)
Went through the same point of giving up (Up, up)
Felt like I had enough ('Nough)
Went to the edge of the ledge but I didn't jump
My life will sum it up (Up)
You can't hold a good woman down
