You are
When I was young me and my mama had years old kicked out on the streets Though back at the time, I never thought I'd see her a woman alive that could take my mama's place Suspended school, and scared to go home, I was a fool With the big boys, breaking all the I tears with my baby sister Over the we was poorer than the other little kids And even we had different daddy's, the same drama things went wrong we'd blame mama I on the stress I caused, it was hell Hugging on my from a jail cell And who'd in elementary? Hey! I see the penitentiary, one day And running from the police, that's Mama catch me, put a whooping to my And even as a crack fiend, You always was a black queen, I finally For a woman it ain't easy trying to a man You always was A single mother on welfare, tell me how ya did it no way I can pay you back But the plan is to show you I understand You are
Don't ya know we ya? Sweet lady Dear Place no one above ya, lady You are ya know we love ya?
Now ain't nobody tell us it was No love from my daddy cause the coward wasn't He passed away and I cry, cause my anger Wouldn't let me feel for a They say I'm and I'm heartless, but all along I was looking for a father he was I hung around with the Thugs, and even though they drugs showed a young brother love I moved out and started hanging I money of my own so I started slanging I ain't guilty cause, even though I rocks It feels good putting in your mailbox I love paying when the rent's due I hope ya got the necklace that 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 home work late You're in the trying to fix us a hot plate Ya just working with the you was given And mama made miracles every But now the road got rough, alone trying to raise two bad kids on your own And there's no way I can pay you But my is to show you that I understand You are
Don't ya know we love ya? Sweet And mama no one above ya, sweet lady You are Don't ya we love ya?
out some liquor and I reminisce, cause through the drama I can always depend on my And it seems that I'm hopeless You say the words that can get me in focus When I was sick as a kid To keep me happy there's no limit to the you did And all my memories Are full of all the things you did for me And even I act crazy I gotta the Lord that you made me There are no words can express how I feel You never a secret, always stayed real And I appreciate, how you me And all the extra love you gave me I wish I could take the away If you can make it through the night there's a day will be alright if ya hold on It's a everyday, gotta roll on And there's no way I can pay you But my plan is to show you that I You are
Don't ya we love ya? Sweet lady And mama no one above ya, sweet lady You are Don't ya we love ya?
Sweet And dear
