No I'm sorry to say There'll be no sacrifice today Everybody expects me to break But I'll never break down again Everybody expects me to give up But you'll never see me givin' in Everybody wants me to lose But I'll never lose who I am No sacrifice today

My best friend, queen of my world, my momma Oh, precious in diamonds and pearls, my momma You sacrificed so much to raise a child C'mon, baby now I just want to see you happy, see you smile All you given me, I can't repay But I'mma honor you today and

There is no forever, just today Don't let your sacrifice waste away Insinuations of what might be Trading life for life It all must fall It must end with us It must end with me Fight through deprivation There will be no sleep
