You are
When I was young me and my mama had Seventeen old kicked out on the streets Though back at the time, I never I'd see her face Ain't a woman that could take my mama's place Suspended school, and scared to go home, I was a fool With the big boys, breaking all the I shed with my baby sister Over the years we was poorer than the other little And even though we had daddy's, the same drama When things wrong we'd blame mama I on the stress I caused, it was hell Hugging on my mama from a jail And who'd in elementary? Hey! I see the penitentiary, one day And running from the police, that's Mama catch me, put a to my backside And as a crack fiend, mama You was a black queen, mama I finally For a woman it ain't easy to raise a man You was committed A poor single mother on welfare, me how ya did it There's no way I can pay you But the plan is to you that I understand You are
Don't ya we love ya? Sweet lady Dear Place no one above ya, lady You are Don't ya we love ya?
Now nobody tell us it was fair No from my daddy cause the coward wasn't there He away and I didn't cry, cause my anger Wouldn't let me for a stranger They say I'm and I'm heartless, but all along I was for a father he was gone I hung around the Thugs, and even though they sold drugs They a young brother love I moved out and started hanging I money of my own so I started slanging I ain't guilty cause, even though I sell 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 I was low you was there for me And left me alone because you cared for me And I see you coming home after work late in the kitchen trying to fix us a hot plate Ya just with the scraps you was given And made miracles every Thanksgiving But now the got rough, you're alone You're trying to raise two bad kids on own And no way I can pay you back But my plan is to you that I understand You are
Don't ya know we love ya? Sweet And dear Place no one ya, sweet lady You are ya know we love ya?
Pour out some and I reminisce, cause through the drama I can always on my mama And it seems that I'm hopeless You say the words that can get me back in I was sick as a little kid To keep me happy there's no to the things you did And all my memories Are full of all the sweet you did for me And even I act crazy I gotta thank the that you made me There are no that can express how I feel You kept a secret, always stayed real And I appreciate, how you me And all the extra love you gave me I wish I could take the away If you can make it through the night there's a day will be alright if ya hold on It's a struggle everyday, roll 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? lady And dear Place no one above ya, sweet You are Don't ya we love ya?
Sweet And mama
