Face Valyou - Ironmother [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1: Face Valyou]
(This is for you, mama earth)
For starters, you don't stop (don't stop), go the extra mile
All the while, stepping with style
Above everything, you put your kids first
And stick it out, even when limbs hurt
Whether a teacher, a nurse, a judge, you work at McDonald's?
Know it or not, you're a model
Compare to any gospel they quote
Character is stand-up and that's not a joke
Take a honest approach, haven't lost hope
Rock the vote, friends with all kind'a folk
Helping strangers, got the guts, the selfless nature
The drive to climb to the top, like an elevator
And even if you could, you can't complain
More so the type to moondance in the rain
And go green when it's dinnertime
So keep, keep on, I'll see you at the finish-line


[Chorus: Mohamed Bhana]
Thank you mother, for all you've done
You've been here with me, keeping me strong
For a long, long time
Helping me grow, into the man I am
You're my ironmother, iron


[Verse 2: Face Valyou]
Compete against yourself, see who's been the furthest
Dig gardens to keep the kids nourished, heart's always in service
Greet mountains with courage, like, "S'up yo"
Know how to stretch a dollar when the funds' low
Or live off the land, adjust and alter plans
Do all you can, and stay calm in a jam
Other women worry you're the bomb, like Iran
Shape a world in the palm of your hands, tougher than the strongest man
But I hate to see you carry stress
So let it go in the air of a breath
And sacrifice is the example you set
When you walk, you got a champion's step
No matter the pain you swim through
The chaos, the issues, if anyone can do this it's you
Create a feast from what you find in the dumpster
A fighter, a lover, woman of steel with a heart of gold, you're an ironmother


[Chorus 2: Mohamed Bhana]
Thank you mother, for all you've done
You've been here with me, keeping me strong
For a long, long time
Helping me grow, into the man I am
You're my ironmother, iron
You don't, give up
Not ever
There's nothing that can stop you
Nothing you can't break through
You're my, ironmother
