Hey mama (hey mama)... |
[00:03.363] |
Know I ain't never tell you this befo' (I ain't never tell you this befo) |
[00:06.771] |
But it really hurt me knowin' I'm runnin' you crazy (know I'm runnin' ya crazy) |
[00:11.267] |
I wanna talk to ya real quick (wanna talk to ya mama) |
[00:13.812] |
My momma told me while I run these streets she can't sleep |
[00:17.150] |
Her phone ring late at night she think somethin' happened to me |
[00:20.251] |
Her nerves so bad right now she can't even watch T.V |
[00:23.531] |
She turn her head everytime she see the police |
[00:26.819] |
She scared to look 'cause it might be me in the back seat |
[00:30.031] |
Whenever she hear about a shootin' her heart skip a beat |
[00:33.499] |
She heard the feds was in town her knees got weak |
[00:36.835] |
She know I'm at the house the only time she at peace |
[00:40.091] |
Her blood pressure through the roof all because of me |
[00:43.308] |
Her favorite words is "dope ain't the only way to eat" |
[00:46.635] |
She told me the other day she hope I don't die in these streets |
[00:49.938] |
I just pray to God she don't wipe her hands wit' me |
[00:53.315] |
I'm a goon to the streets but to my momma I'm still her baby |
[00:56.706] |
Raised a street nigga by yaself you a hell of a lady |
[01:00.092] |
Shit Im doin' now got nothin' to do wit' how you raised me |
[01:03.531] |

[01:06.442] |

[01:16.658] |
Shit killin' me to know I'm runnin' my momma crazy |
[01:19.921] |
Remember the nights me sittin' up in a cold cell |
[01:23.042] |

[01:26.458] |
You ain't say it but I know inside you mad as hell |
[01:29.666] |
You called off from work just to bond me out of jail |
[01:33.058] |
I get in trouble I call you seem like it never fail |
[01:36.322] |
Can hear you now "boy you need to sit ya ass down somewhere |
[01:39.809] |

[01:42.809] |
I know I'm stressin' ya at times seem like I don't care |
[01:46.228] |
You wrote bad checks for me to have somethin' to wear |
[01:49.594] |
You risked ya freedom for me nowadays that's real rare |
[01:52.954] |
Everytime I think about the shit I wanna shed a tear |
[01:56.393] |
That's why I buy ya somethin' for Father's Day every year |
[01:59.388] |

[02:29.210] |
Wanted me to stay in school but that ain't where my heart was at |
[02:32.556] |
I got exposed to the streets and fell in love wit' stacks |
[02:36.001] |
And all the times I hurt you wish I could take it back |
[02:39.209] |
When daddy left us you stepped up and took his slack |
[02:42.593] |
I know I'm selfish and feelin's is somethin' I know I lack |
[02:45.945] |
The shit I'm doin' now I know you raised me better than that |
[02:49.277] |
You showed me how to be a man and showed me how to act |
[02:52.529] |
Sometimes I wonder how you still proud I'm ya son |
[02:55.780] |
After all the stuff I took ya through and all the shit I done |
[02:59.097] |
Well like ya told me when God want me how I can't run |
[03:02.530] |
Before he take me want you to know how much I love ya mom |
[03:05.843] |

[03:39.744] |
