|
You 'bout to make me slam yo' back clean out |
|
But i luv her till death do us part |
|
Though she divorced my pop the hard way |
|
Back in nineteen "yassey" for the past sixteen years |
|
I took on the responsibility of daddy... |
|
Ma ol' burd... puttin a real buzz in my ear, makin sho' it marinate |
|
And not go out the other ear |
|
Guess who? stood beside me when y'all wouldn't force fed when i |
|
Couldn't lift a spoon to my skull |
|
God is good, god is kind mimmicin' her taught me how to say mine ... |
|
Grace improvised wit bakin' soda when it wasn't no toothpaste |
|
Now what that went with?? my ol' burd cried tears of joy |
|
When she heard i wasn't gon' serve time for possession |
|
Of the "sawed off" runnin' out of spurs |
|
When i came home blowed and couldn't find the key hole, guess who |
|
Unlocked the doors, my ol' burd puttin' my hairs out |
|
I better eat before you bug me to death |
|
Shut-up you old ungrateful ass nigga, she trying to help yo' ass... |
|
I wasn't ready to eat yet but i enjoyed the dinner she said, "i'm glad" |
|
Slid down my esophagus wit ease, even though she have this skin disease, |
|
That won't allow me to gain weight do my own eyes deceive me |
|
Guess who tuck me in before i started drivin this benz |
|
Again & again, told me not to and when i did... |
|
Guess who beat the dog shit outta me kid |
|
My moma didn't play, shiiit, i had to pick the switches... |
|
You guess who!!! |
|
My moma, destination unknown, went out on her own |
|
She was barely even grown and became my moma |
|
I never knew my dad, so even when the times got bad |
|
I was glad cause i had my moma |
|
For so long she had to be strong |
|
I know at certain times she was wrong |
|
But she still my moma, it still amazes me |
|
The lord had to help her raise me judging from the way i used to be |
|
My moma, the biggest player that i know i love her so |
|
Hell everything i got i owe to my moma |
|
Thank you for caring, thank you for sharing yo' luv |
|
I guess that was yo' way of preparing |
|
Yo' son to be the one and not the two |
|
To make you and my daddy's dream come true |
|
But what a surprise a car wreck left you paralyzed |
|
The sheet was pulled over yo' eyes when the doctor advised |
|
The family that you might not ever talk again |
|
But you talkin' so i know that you gon' walk again |
|
But take yo time, guess who's the inspiration for the rhyme... my moma |
|
Who was tha first to hold you in some arms |
|
Tha first to change your diaper when your stomach wasn't calm |
|
Your moma, wit that drama brought you into this world |
|
From a world of down under |
|
I wonder now she know when i was lying, when i was telling the truth |
|
With the proof she would explain how i've been skipping school |
|
With that boys putting wholes on my back with the same belt |
|
Around my waist that held my panst up |
|
Takin' back only got you closer to southern bell |
|
Got your forehead swell |
|
I swear she knew when it was real or when it was fake like clampetts |
|
With dreads and if i couldn't handle a situation then i fled |
|
Behind closed doors i froze, in garnett holes i rose |
|
Who that hell got my bond |
|
Standing in front of that two-inch glass |
|
A woman ready to hand the cash over for her son... |
|
My mama!! |
|
Sometimes we get it on, i know at times i'm wrong |
|
Lookin' into my eyes just to let me know she tried is enough for me |
|
I'm callin' a truce it seems we more like brother and sister |
|
Even though she pay the bills wit the mister |
|
Brought me home in '72 and gave me all she had |
|
Cause i was left at birth she knew it could work |
|
Since she gave me the first chance my song and dance |
|
Pearl, my world, what would i do without her spark |
|
Probably be on the street wit nothin' to eat but i got a happy home |
|
Ever since my first day it's heaven sent now i know |
|
What it's meant when i say |
|
I appreciate what you've done and what you do your only son... |
|
Guess who??? |
|
The only one that cares for real and really understands how i feel |
|
Help me over come my fears and never left me through the years |
|
So i dedicate this song for you, for all that you brought me through |
|
I know there will never be another that will love me like my mother |
