Lyrics

My Mama Said Mama Me Dijo by Valen Nyx

She said it just like that
Ooh ahh... Mamá said

My momma said, "Don't rush love, it'll wait
Mamá me dijo que el corazón no se miente
She brushed my hair with her calloused hands
Turned silence into words I could understand

Mamá me dijo / My momma knew
Life's gonna test what you hold true
If he don't see you, baby, shine alone
You are the fire, you are your own

My momma said, "You don't have to smile
Mamá me dijo que el dolor también es real
She had no pearls, but her truth was rare
And every tear she caught became a prayer

Mamá me dijo / My momma knew
Speak with love, but never lose you
Even when the nights feel twice as long
Her words still play like an old love song

She said, 'Mija, don't let them dim your light
And if you fall—fall like thunder, not like shame

Her voice was my gospel
Her silence, my flame

Mamá me dijo / My momma said
Don't chase love that makes you beg
And in my shadow, when I'm unsure
Her voice returns, steady and pure
Mamá me dijooooo

My mama said
Don't chase love that makes you beg
And in my shadow when I'm unsure
Her voice returns steady and pure
Still steady
Still pure
That's right Mamma you always knew
Mamá me dijo
And she still does
