Lyrics
[Verse 1]
“Why not?” were the words that she said
“She has no use; she’ll lead to mistakes
They tried to hold her, but she stood strong
Jah’s light within showed right from wrong (Oh, Jah)
[Chorus]
No daughter of mine (Jah knows)
Will I place limits on
Children learn from those who guide them
I’ll help you rise and fly beyond (Fly beyond)
[Verse 2]
All her life, she heard the same refrain
“Your destiny’s set; don’t question the chain”
Then one day, she raised her voice
No Babylon system can take her choice (Oh, no)
[Chorus]
No daughter of mine (Jah knows)
Will I place limits on
Children learn from those who guide them
I’ll help you rise and fly beyond (Fly beyond)
[Bridge]
Change in thinking, change in belief
Chains fall away, her spirit set free
Jah walks beside you; keep your heart strong
Stand in truth, as you journey on
[Chorus – Outro]
No daughter of mine (Jah knows)
Will I place limits on
Children learn from those who guide them
I’ll help you rise and fly beyond (Fly beyond)
[Outro]
I will always stand beside you...as you fly beyond (Ohhh)
