Mamma

Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
Mama I've been thinking bout you lately

Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
Mama I've been

Look

Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
You been thinking about me
Have you been thinking bout my safety

I've been thinking bout the many years you've had to bust your ass
Raising four children alone
Not even close to middle class

All the snakes up in the grass that you done had to deal with
All the bullshit from my father you done had to deal with

All the countless nights frustrated cause the money wasn't there
Growing up in the projects, nights were difficult to bare

But as I'm sitting in this chair
I just want to thank you
For all the lessons that you taught me mom
I'm truly grateful

And while you still alive
Please just try to realize
Your priorities are first
Despite their corresponding size

I know it's hard from time to time to keep a positive mind
That doesn't mean that you should grief about your past all time

Five years ago you was hurting
It hit us all like a bomb
I will never forget second that you lost your mom

You was devastated, fell into a deep depression
Fast forward five years me and my siblings moved on

But you were still down, still couldn't believe she was gone
Mama it's healthier to grief but it's worse to hold on

For all your damn life you've been nothing but strong
If you put in the extra effort you can prove all them wrong
As I represent your battles and your life through this song
For my sisters listening, it's integral, just sing along like

Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
Mama I've been thinking bout you lately, yeah
Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
I know you'll won't forget about your babies but

Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
Mama I've been thinking bout you lately, yeah
Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
Mama I've been thinking bout you lately, look

Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
Mama I've been thinking bout you lately, yeah
Mama I've been thinking bout you lately
Mama allow change to set you free from all this waiting, please
