I used to be a strong girl
Mama said that strong girls don't cry
I used to be a cute little girl
Mama said that cute girls don't lie
But I say...
Mama you were so wrong
I cry but I feel strong
And I don't wanna be like you
I hate the things you do
Because

Mama you're a liar, you say you want me to be me
You are such a liar, you say that you believe in me

Everything you said seemed so right
I never knew that you could be so wrong
But all I really want is you to hold me tight
It's everything I need to feel strong
Remember how we used to speak
Until we fell asleep
Remember how you dried my tears
It all was so sincere
But now

Mama you're a liar, you say you want me to be me
You are such a liar, you say that you believe in me

When I was a little girl
I considered you an angel
Mama, we were so damn close
And now you're just a stranger
Because

Mama you're a liar, you say you want me to be me
You are such a liar, you say that you believe in me
Mama you're a liar, you say you want me to be me
