So here we go again Same situation And I can't drown in your drama no more Let me make it clear Just read my lips This ain't what I'm looking for So take it away I don't wanna see the damage Oh no, not today I got better things to do I'll sleep in peace Cuz my conscience is clear While you're dirty past catches up with you So what did you think I was too stupid to notice? It's over now It don't matter no more On your way out You can take your dirty laundry I'll keep my dignity Cuz that's the way my mama made me That's the way my mama made me I was raised to be strong Created in the image Of a woman who knows How to stand on her own Baby I deserve Better than this If you dim my flame I'd rather be alone I won't bow my head Or give into your religion I will burn bright Cuz I'm made that way If I let you get away With treating me less than a lady What would my mama say? So what did you think I was too stupid to notice? It's over now It don't matter no more On your way out You can take your dirty laundry I'll keep my dignity Cuz that's the way my mama made That's the way my mama made me I was taught to love myself Accept nothing else And you won't get the best of me No, you won't get the best of me So what did you think I was too stupid to notice? It's over now It don't matter no more On your way out You can take your dirty laundry I'll keep my dignity Cuz that's the way my mama made That's the way my mama made That's the way my mama made me Take it away Oh no, not today That's the way my mama made me That's the way my mama made me
