You are
When I was me and my mama had beef 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 from school, and to go home, I was a fool the big boys, breaking all the rules I tears with my baby sister Over the years we was poorer than the other little And even though we had different daddy's, the drama When things wrong we'd blame mama I reminisce on the stress I caused, it was Hugging on my mama from a cell And think in elementary? Hey! I see the penitentiary, one day And from the police, that's right catch me, put a whooping to my backside And even as a crack fiend, You always was a queen, mama I understand For a woman it ain't trying to raise a man You was committed A poor single on welfare, tell me how ya did it no way I can pay you back But the plan is to show you that I You are
Don't ya know we love ya? lady Dear no one above ya, sweet lady You are ya know we love ya?
Now ain't nobody tell us it was No love from my daddy cause the coward there He away and I didn't 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 though they sold drugs showed a young brother love I out and started really hanging I needed money of my own so I started I ain't guilty cause, even though I sell It feels putting money in your mailbox I love paying rent the rent's due I hope ya got the diamond necklace I sent to you when I was low you was there for me And never left me alone because you for me And I could see you coming after work late You're in the kitchen to fix us a hot plate Ya just with the scraps you was given And mama miracles every Thanksgiving But now the road got rough, alone You're trying to two bad kids on your own And there's no way I can pay you But my plan is to you that I understand You are
Don't ya we love ya? Sweet lady And mama Place no one above ya, sweet You are Don't ya know we ya?
Pour out some liquor and I reminisce, cause through the I can always depend on my And it seems that 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 of all the sweet things you did for me And though I act crazy I gotta thank the Lord that you me There are no words that can how I feel You never kept a secret, always real And I appreciate, how you me And all the extra love that you me I wish I could take the away If you can make it the night there's a brighter day Everything will be alright if ya on It's a everyday, gotta roll on And no way I can pay you back But my is to show you that I understand You are
Don't ya know we love ya? lady And dear Place no one ya, sweet lady You are Don't ya we love ya?
Sweet And mama
