Luyện nghe bài hát Dear Mama

You are

When I was a youngin' and ma had me
Seventeen old kicked out on the streets
Though back at the time, I never thought I'd see her
Ain't a woman alive could take my mama's place

Suspended from school and to go home, I was a fool
With the big boys, breakin' all the
I shed tears with my baby
Over the years we was poorer than the other kids

And even though we had different daddy's, the same
When things went wrong blame mama
I on the stress I caused, it was hell
Huggin' on my mama from a jail and high school elementary?

Hey, I see the penitentiary, one day
And from the police, that's right
catch me, put a whoopin' to my backside
And even as a crack theme,
You always was a black queen,

I finally understand for a woman it easy
Tryin' 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 show you that I you are appreciated

Lady, don't cha we love ya? Sweet lady
Dear mama, no one above ya, sweet lady
You are appreciated, don't cha we love ya?

Now nobody tell us it was fair
No love from my daddy 'cause the coward there
He passed away and I didn't cry, cause my
Wouldn't let me for a stranger

They say I'm wrong and I'm heartless, but all
I was lookin' for a he was gone
I hung around with the Thugs, and even they sold drugs
They a young brother love

I moved out and really hangin'
I needed of my own so I started shaggin'
I guilty 'cause, even though I sell rocks
It feels good puttin' money in mailbox

I payin' rent when the rent's due
I hope ya got the necklace that I sent to you
'Cause I was low you was there for me
And never me alone because you cared for me

And I could see you home after work late
in the kitchen tryin' to fix us a hot plate
Ya just workin' the scraps you was given
And mama miracles every thanksgivin'

But now the got rough, here alone
You're to raise two bad kids on your own
And no way I can pay you back
But my plan is to show you that I understand you are

Lady, don't cha know we love ya? lady
And mama place no one above ya, sweet lady
You are appreciated, don't cha we love ya?

Pour out some and I reminisce, 'cause through the drama
I can always on my mama
And when it that I'm hopeless
You say the that can get me back in focus

When I was as a little kid
To keep me happy there's no limit to the you did
And all my childhood
Are full of all the things you did for me

And even though I act
I gotta the Lord that you made me
There are no that can express how I feel
You never kept a secret, always real

And I appreciate, how you me
And all the extra that you gave me
I I could take the pain away
If you can make it through the night a brighter day

Everything will be alright if ya on
It's a struggle everyday, roll on
And there's no way I can pay you
But my plan is to show you that I understand you are

Lady, don't cha we love ya? Sweet lady
And mama place no one above ya, sweet lady
You are appreciated, don't cha know we ya?

Sweet lady, and dear
Dear mama, lady, lady,
