Mama Did Tell Me
My mama did tell me I'm gonna be preacher
Somebody else said I'm gonna be deacon
Shine like a light
Be the brightest of beacon
Told imma doctor
Fixer of problems
My mama did tell me I'm gonna be preacher
Somebody else said I'm gonna be deacon
Shine like a light
Be the brightest of beacon
Told imma doctor
Fixer of problems
My mama did tell me I'm gonna be preacher
Somebody else said I'm gonna be deacon
Been fighting these demons
I never believed it
But like Tony got spark
Imma walk in the park
Got the bravest of heart
I've started
Once started
It's hardest to stop
Foolish pride will never take me to top
Somebody told me I'm gonna be great
Floating in my sins
Going away
From truth I have strayed
Been harder to pray
Been acting a
Here watch me bray
Been moving so fast
No time for lemonade
Lemonode
In another mode
In another mood
So incredible
It's affecting you
What's ahead of you
What's ahead of me
I guess we'll see
My mama did tell me I'm gonna be preacher
Somebody else said I'm gonna be deacon
Shine like a light
Be the brightest of beacon
Told imma doctor
Fixer of problems
My mama did tell me I'm gonna be preacher
Somebody else said I'm gonna be deacon
Shine like a light
Be the brightest of beacon
Told imma doctor
Fixer of problems
My mama did tell me I'm gonna be light
Somebody else said don't give up the fight
Spit spit my truth on the mic
Stop people pleasing
What is the reason
My mama did tell me I'm gonna be light
Somebody else said don't give up the fight
Spit spit my truth on the mic
Stop people pleasing
Here for a reason
My mama did tell me I'm gonna be light
Somebody else said don't give up the fight
Through darkest of days
Similar to the night
Running thru maze
Ain't no exit in sight
Things be so hectic
Still hanging like necklace
Missed a few calls
Still got the message
Missed a few classes
Still got the lesson
Missed opportunity
Still has not ruined me
Walking round
Head up never down
Little boy blue
But red is the town
I'm winding up
Like a pitcher on mound
Grown sound
Don't need crown
No cap
Dentist talk
No cap
That's Wack
My mama did tell me I'm gonna be preacher
Somebody else said I'm gonna be deacon
Shine like a light
Be the brightest of beacon
Told imma doctor
Fixer of problems
My mama did tell me I'm gonna be preacher
Somebody else said I'm gonna be deacon
Shine like a light
Be the brightest of beacon
Told imma doctor
Fixer of problems
My mama did tell me I got so much love
Somebody else said don't ever give up
Look in the mirror
You is enough
Follow peace like a dove
Mama did tell me I got so much love
Somebody else said don't ever give up
Look in the mirror
You is enough
Follow peace like a dove
My mama did tell me I got so much love
Somebody else said don't ever give up
If you do earn it
Don't give up that trust
Hardest to control
Is fighting of lust
Or chasing that profit
No I ain't a prophet
But what does it profit
Just filling your pockets
From profits of nonsense
Not the heeding the conscious
That can't be the constant
Life living rotten
Bringer of conflict
Riding shotgun
Got God in the cockpit
If He my pilot
I'm highly delighted
You setting me up
Volleyball
Yea ima spike it
Riding shotgun
Got God in the cockpit
He is my pilot
I'm highly delighted
You setting me up
Oh imma spike it
Volleyball
I gotta spike it
My mama did tell me I'm gonna be preacher
Somebody else said I'm gonna be deacon
Shine like a light
Be the brightest of beacon
Told imma doctor
Fixer of problems
My mama did tell me I'm gonna be preacher
Somebody else said I'm gonna be deacon
Shine like a light
Be the brightest of beacon
Told imma doctor
Fixer of problems
