Mama's Always on Stage

Hey brand new Mama, I understand
It's hard as hell being a young mother and
You need support your conscious told you not to abort
So to your child you're a hero of some sort

But hey, the worst is over, you're ready to do this
I got faith and your baby renewed this faith
That everything will be fine
Now an adult, no more youth time

We'll be there just give us a ring
We will help you to raise that king
Word to the mother
'Cause it's a black thing

I respect you in a strong way
Super late nights 'cause your baby slept all day
But Mama don't sleep, your life's a turning page

Mama's always on stage
Mama's always on stage
Mama's always on stage
Mama's always on stage

Hey, let me guess, you're bored
Wanna get loose, attack the dance floor
Cool, I'll hold her, you have a good time
I'll keep your baby awake so baby sleeps after nine

This is reality, we need to turn our minds
Brothers talking revolution but leave their babies behind
Well sister, he's a sucker, just leave 'em be
The revolution is now up to brothers like me

To step in 'cause your man stepped out
To raise the children, no doubt
So let's go to it and possibly
Bring a generation of nat's in the future, see

I respect you in a strong way
Super late nights 'cause your baby slept all day
But Mama don't sleep, your life's a turning page
Mama's always on stage
Keep up your strength now 'cause we must grow somehow baby

Mama is always on stage
Mama's always on stage
Mama's always on stage
Mama's always on stage

Here we go
Can't be a revolution without women
Can't be a revolution without children
I improved throughout my life
All of this just to soothe a wife

Brothers wear your black clothes
Talk your 5 percent talk
Words of wisdom should be ways of wisdom
That's exactly how you must walk

Life's too short, your mission's too dire
Nurture another mind before yours expires
Pass it on, push it along
Like the brother said it in that one song

We respect you all the way
Late, late nights 'cause your baby slept all day
But Mama's got to stay strong, carry it on
Hey, Mama's on stage, on stage

Mama's always on stage
Mama's always on stage
Mama's on stage
Mama's always on stage
Here we go

Mommy's a cheap girl
