[Verse 1]
This is for the lonely ones, the ones that fear the daylight
The ones who disappear, they hide their face from all the world
Take no space, they're never heard
Scared they might get burned, scared of what they'll learn
They don't know they save the earth
With everything, they're made of
The special way they shine, they [?] 'I thank you' is not enough
Of all the fruit that they've sown, I'm the one that's grown the most
[Chorus]
Mama, Sister, It's okay now
You've done all you can now
I'm gonna be fine now
[Verse 2]
You will never know, the troubles they have come through
Their smiles are like a gift, The rarest only you could dream of
It's not a beauty you could speak of
For all the things you kind of gave, I give my thanks to you this way
[Chorus]
Mama, Sister, It's okay now
I'm gonna be fine now
You've done all you can now
Mama, Sister, It's okay now
You've done all you can now
I'm gonna be fine now
[Break]
Now's the time to take your place
And let the sun shine on your face
[Chorus]
Mama, Sister, It's okay now
You've done all you can now
I'm gonna be fine now
Mama, Sister, It's okay now
You've done all you can now
I'm gonna be fine now
