Mother |
| What Up, Ex? |
| Ayo I just wanna talk about something real quick |
| This one right here, it’s kinda like- it’s kinda like a love song, |
| you know what I’m sayin? |
| It sorta hurts though |
| Bear with me… check it out |
| Raised three snotty-nosed kids on your own |
| We never had a house, we always had a home |
| At least when you were there, half the time you was gone |
| I tried to cook my own supper, burnt my hand on the stove |
| I had clothes, what I needed, but never what I wanted |
| First day of school I stunted, cause you went out and hunted |
| Got me the latest toy, and no matter how old I get |
| I’m still your baby boy, somehow you stayed employed |
| And never worked a 9-to-5, and never wondered why |
| Black queen, crack fiend, all the while you was high |
| Hardly ever wiped my tears, never let you see me cry |
| Not one man in the house, so that spot I occupied |
| How could I not acknowledge your work? |
| A Mason jar used to steal the dollars out of her purse |
| It breaks my heart to see you struggle with your addiction |
| And still I care for you |
| Despite all of the drama, I’ll always be there for you |
| You are |
| Everything and anything to me |
| Little lady, can’t you see? |
| You are |
| You’re my momma, and I’m your son |
| Thank God, cause he only gave us one |
| You remember that night, I took your glass pipe |
| Threw it against the street light, you probably might |
| I thought saved your life, Tasha called CPS, big sis was fed up |
| With her mama, tried to visit, but they usually didn’t let her |
| Life could have been worse and life could have been better |
| Loved her unconditionally, since the day that we met her |
| At the parent and teacher meetings, you might have never seen her |
| Still, she gave me life, guess that’s why they call her Vida |
| I been to two of your weddings, none of them guys still around |
| How can I mirror that, how could I let you down |
| Even though you left me home alone for nights at a time |
| I’m shedding tears as I’m reciting each line |
| Apparently, it’s never too young to become a parent for some |
| Had me at 15 going on 21 |
| Had an older sister even had an older brother |
| Met a lot of men and women but there’s no one like my mother |
