Verse 1
Met you in a world that don’t always love us
Both of us tired, still standing tall
Shared a look that said “I feel you”
Didn’t know then you’d be my call
Pre-Chorus
Same laughter, same scars
Different stories, same fight
In a room full of noise and doubt
We found peace in each other’s light
Chorus
You was my friend, now you my sister
Blood didn’t choose us, love did, though
Through every tear and every victory
We grew roots where trust was sown
Black girl magic, hand in hand
Built a bond they’ll never sever
Started as friends in this hard world
Now you my sister forever
Verse 2
Did each other’s hair, shared prayers and secrets
Late-night talks ‘bout dreams and pain
When the weight got heavy on my shoulders
You reminded me I wasn’t insane
Pre-Chorus
Held me up when I couldn’t breathe
Told me truth even when it hurt
Saw the queen before I did
Helped me rise up from the dirt
Chorus
You was my friend, now you my sister
Blood didn’t choose us, love did, though
Through every tear and every victory
We grew roots where trust was sown
Black girl magic, hand in hand
Built a bond they’ll never sever
Started as friends in this hard world
Now you my sister forever
Bridge
They don’t see the strength in our embrace
Or the prayers we whispered just to survive
We carry ancestors in our laughter
Generations in the way we thrive
Chorus (lifted)
You was my friend, now you my sister
Chosen family, soul-deep tie
When the world tried to break our spirits
We stood strong, eye to eye
Black woman love, sacred and true
A power nothing can diminish
This ain’t just friendship anymore
This is sisterhood—no limits
Outro
So if they ask how we got this close
Tell ‘em love wrote the plan
She my sister by the heart
And my friend by God’s hand
