Ring Off

Mama, I understand your many sleepless nights

When you sit and you think about Father

Or how you tried to be the perfect wife

You used to dress and fix your hair

Then you smiled through your tears

In the mirror, you would stare

And say a prayer

Like I wish he said I'm beautiful

I wish it didn't hurt at all

I don't know how I got here

I was once the one who had his heart

Until you had enough, then you took that ring off

You took that ring off

So tired of the lies and trying, fighting, crying

Took that ring off

Oh, now the fun begins

Dust yourself off and you love again

You found a new man now you shine, and you're fine

Like it's my time, you took that ring off

Mama (so sexy), you live and learn, that's just the way life goes

(Uh, you a killer, you a killer, killer)

Always know that you've got a daughter

That's so, so proud you took the high road

(You a killer) you so sexy

You used to dress and fix your hair

You'd always smiled through your tears

And in the mirror you would stare

And say a prayer

Like I wish he said I'm beautiful

I wish it didn't hurt at all

I don't know how I got here

I was once the one who had his heart

And then had enough, and you took that ring off

You took that ring off

So tired of the lies and trying, fighting, crying

Took that ring off

Oh, now the fun begins

Dust yourself off and you love again

You found a new man, now you shine, and you're fine

Like it's my time, you took that ring off

Now after all your tears

After all that pain's all clear, mama

After all them years

We can start all over again, mama

And now it all makes sense

Letting go is never the end, mama

We can love again

This is where freedom begins, mama

So put your love on top

Keep on shinin', put your love on top

It's your time to put your love on top

Everybody, put your love on top

Aye, love on top

Aye, love on top

It's your time to put your love on top

Girl, you so fine, put your love on top

If you're going through it, just know it's called "Going through it"

You're not gonna get stuck there, you're not gonna die

You're gonna survive
