You are
When I was young me and my mama had Seventeen years old out on the streets Though back at the time, I thought I'd see her face Ain't a woman that could take my mama's place Suspended from school, and to go home, I was a fool With the big boys, all the rules I shed with my baby sister Over the years we was poorer the other little kids And even though we had different daddy's, the drama When things went wrong we'd mama I on the stress I caused, it was hell Hugging on my from a jail cell And who'd in elementary? Hey! I see the penitentiary, one day And running the police, that's right Mama catch me, put a to my backside And even as a fiend, mama You was a black queen, mama I finally For a woman it ain't trying to raise a man You always was A single mother on welfare, tell me how ya did it no way I can pay you back But the is to show you that I understand You are
Don't ya we love ya? Sweet lady Dear no one above ya, sweet lady You are ya know we love ya?
Now ain't tell us it was fair No love from my cause the coward wasn't there He passed away and I cry, cause my anger Wouldn't let me for a stranger They say I'm wrong and I'm heartless, but all I was for a father he was gone I hung around with the Thugs, and even though sold drugs They a young brother love I moved out and started really I money of my own so I started slanging I ain't guilty cause, even though I rocks It feels putting money in your mailbox I love paying when the rent's due I hope ya got the diamond necklace I sent to you 'Cause when I was low you was for me And never left me alone you cared for me And I could see you coming after work late in the kitchen trying to fix us a hot plate Ya just working with the scraps you was And mama made miracles Thanksgiving But now the road got rough, you're You're trying to raise two bad on your own And no way I can pay you back But my plan is to you that I understand You are
Don't ya we love ya? Sweet lady And mama no one above ya, sweet lady You are ya know we love ya?
Pour out liquor and I reminisce, cause through the drama I can depend on my mama And when it seems I'm hopeless You say the that can get me back in focus I was sick as a little kid To keep me happy there's no limit to the you did And all my memories Are full of all the things you did for me And even I act crazy I gotta the Lord that you made me There are no words can express how I feel You never kept a secret, always stayed And I appreciate, how you me And all the extra love that you me I wish I take the pain away If you can make it through the there's a brighter day Everything will be alright if ya on It's a struggle everyday, gotta on And there's no way I can pay you But my plan is to you that I understand You are
Don't ya know we love ya? Sweet And dear Place no one above ya, sweet You are Don't ya know we ya?
Sweet And mama
