I was raised up by my mamma alone
Worked herself into the grave
Trying to make us a home
She never left South Carolina 

(No na) 

Our old man didn't stick around to see me grown
He was long gone 'fore the coffee got cold 
Wouldn't even know where to find him 

Woah
Wasn't strong enough
Woah
He wasn't strong enough 

Alright, alright, alright, alright 

I left home with nothing but a dream I had
All I own I could roll up in a paper bag
Getting out of South Carolina
Alright 

I've been told there's gold in this land
All I know is what I hold in my own two hands
If it's out there I'm gonna find it

Oh, am I strong enough?
Oh, am I strong enough? 

Everywhere you turn there's another man slammin' doors
Looking at you like he wouldn't even let you sweep his floors
 
I was raised up by my mamma on her own
Worked herself into the grave
Trying to make us a home
Never left South Carolina

I left home with nothing but a dream I had
All I own I could hold in a paper bag
Getting out of South Carolina 
 
Oh, am I strong enough?
Oh, tell me am I strong enough? 

Oh, am I strong enough?
Oh, tell me am I strong enough? 

Am I strong enough? 
Am I strong enough? 
Am I strong enough? 
Am I strong enough? 

Oh, tell me
Am I strong enough?
Oh, got to tell me
Am I strong enough?
Oh, tell me
Am I strong enough?
