You are
When I was young me and my mama had Seventeen years old out on the streets Though at the time, I never thought I'd see her face a woman alive 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 tears my baby sister Over the years we was than the other little kids And even though we had different daddy's, the same When things went wrong we'd mama I reminisce on the stress I caused, it was on my mama from a jail cell And who'd think in Hey! I see the penitentiary, one day And running from the police, right catch me, put a whooping to my backside And even as a fiend, mama You always was a queen, mama I understand For a woman it easy trying to raise a man You was committed A poor single on welfare, tell me how ya did it There's no way I can pay you But the plan is to show you that I You are

Now ain't nobody us it was fair No love from my cause the coward wasn't there He away and I didn't cry, cause my anger Wouldn't let me feel for a say I'm wrong and I'm heartless, but all along I was looking for a father he was I around with the Thugs, and even though they sold drugs They showed a brother love I out and started really hanging I needed money of my own so I slanging I ain't guilty cause, even though I rocks It feels good putting in your mailbox I paying rent when the rent's due I hope ya got the diamond necklace I sent to you 'Cause I was low you was there for me And never left me alone you cared for me And I could see you coming home after work in the kitchen trying to fix us a hot plate Ya just working the scraps you was given And mama made miracles Thanksgiving But now the road got rough, you're You're trying to two bad kids on your own And no way I can pay you back But my plan is to show you I understand You are

Pour out some liquor and I reminisce, through the drama I can depend on my mama And when it seems I'm hopeless You say the words can get me back in focus When I was sick as a kid To keep me happy there's no to the things you did And all my memories Are full of all the things you did for me And even I act crazy I gotta thank the Lord that you me are no words that can express how I feel You never kept a secret, stayed real And I appreciate, how you me And all the extra love you gave me I wish I could the pain away If you can make it through the night a brighter day Everything be alright if ya hold on It's a everyday, gotta roll on And no way I can pay you back But my plan is to show you that I You are
Don't ya know we love ya? Sweet And mama no one above ya, sweet lady You are Don't ya know we ya?
