Текст песни The Best You Can Be - Omawumi

Mama mo,
Now i see why you said the things that you said to me,
All along you wanted me to be the best that i can be.
I didn't see the tears you cried for me,
I didn't hear the prayers that you said on your knees,
All i saw was this person who didnt understand how i felt inside when you said
To kneel down, hands up, close your eyes
Wash the plates, and your clothes, clean those tiles
All of these and many more priceless values that you taught
Made me who i am today
Who i am today
Pikin moo
There will come the time when you would think the same thoughts,
But just know,
I no dey craze when i shout say make you wash the pot,
See i love you my precious baby,
And i know that we'll be best friends eventually,
But now i've got to be the mother that you need,
It's my responsibility,
So make you no vex when i say

To kneel down, hands up, close your eyes,
Wash the plates, and your cloths, clean those tiles
All of these and many more
You're gunna need to learn before you can be the best you can be.
The best you can beee
One day
You go grow up and start your own family,
And i pray,
You go pass down these values to children
Even if you need to make them
Kneel down, hands up, close their eyes (close their eyes)
Wash the plates, and their clothes, clean those tiles,
All of these and many more you gunna have to learn before
You can be the best they can be Add or View Explanation Read your books, choose good friends,
Get wise, learn to cook, be organised,
Don't tell lies
All of these and many more
You gunna have to learn before you can be the best
The best you can be
