(talking)Do you know your wealth?
More than diamonds hiding on a shelf.
Do you know who you are?
God has made you a shining star.
oh wanawanawana oh wanawanawana oh wanawanawana ohoh
I`ve got a little friend
Her age is four plus ten (that`s fourteen)
She calls me on the phone (yes she yes she does now)
Crying, crying every now and then.
And she says, "My mama just won`t listen,
My daddy still is missin`
I dont feel I am nothing of value or worth"
Chorus:
And I say, "Baby girl get a hold of yourself
Baby girl don`t you know your wealth?
You`re a diamond hiding on a shelf
Baby girl, baby girl
Baby girl don`t you know who you are?
God has made you a shining star
A little light`s brighter than the dark
Baby girl, baby girl"
I call my sister friend
I`m crying, crying and whining again (yea me)
She lets me vent my heart (yes she, yes she does now)
Before the healing starts
And I say, "My children just won`t listen
My paycheck still is missin`
and every little thing is working my nerve."
Chorus:
And she says, "Baby girl get a hold of yourself
Baby girl don`t you know your wealth?
You`re a diamond hiding on a shelf
Baby girl, baby girl
Baby girl don`t you know who you are?
God has made you a shining star
a little light`s stronger than the dark
Baby girl, baby girl"
oh wanawanawana oh wanawanawana oh
Hold that thought I`ll be right back.
oh wanawanawana oh wanawanawana oh
A little bit of light`s stronger than the dark.
oh wanawanawana oh wanawanawana oh
Hey hey yea yea oh oh
Chorus:
Baby girl get a hold of yourself
Baby girl don`t you know your wealth?
You`re a diamond hiding on a shelf
Baby girl, baby girl
Baby girl don`t you know who you are?
God has made you a shining star
a little light`s stronger than the dark
Baby girl, baby girl
Baby girl
Baby girl
You`re a shining star
Baby girl
You`re like a diamond hiding on a shelf
(Baby) You know who you are
(Baby) You`re a shining star
(Baby)
(Baby) Don`t you know who you are
(Baby) You`re a shining star
(Baby) A little bit of light`s stronger than the dark now, oh
