Tre16oz - MAMA

Listen to the words I say Mama
The World is coming your way Mama
That's on the words I've prayed Mama
I'm setting stones in place Mama
The streets cold why'd I give em chase Mama
You told me so, you ain't gotta say it Mama
You shouldn't have to repeat yourself
If I can 'huh' then I can hear
When it was in or out I needed more time to play Mama
Said share, never let 'em take from us
Watch my sister and look out for my brothers
You shouldn't have to repeat yourself
If I can ' huh' then I can hear
When it was in or out
I needed more time to play Mama
Mid Summer a Rare Essence block party jumped out your chest
As I held onto you listening to the love for me you confessed
You told me you'd never leave me
You'll have my back through whatever
Forced or Natural disaster
You inclined me for the weather
Your manners and book smarts
Common sense, you swear I ain't been taught
Constantly catching me, Now I rarely get caught
Crazy how someone come into your life, Change you forever
A blemish of your innocence
Ain't know would make you better
Told me they wasn't for me
You told me to let it go
When I held on you read between them lines
And watched them chapters close
My Mama like a psychic
My mama is my hero
My mama is not sidekick
We partners until we ghost, So
Listen to the words I say Mama
The World is coming your way Mama
That's on the words I've prayed Mama
I'm setting stones in place Mama
The streets cold why'd I give em chase Mama
You told me so, you ain't gotta say it Mama
You shouldn't have to repeat yourself
If I can 'huh' then I can hear
When it was in or out I needed more time to play Mama
Said share, never let 'em take from us
Watch my sister and look out for my brothers
You shouldn't have to repeat yourself
If I can ' huh' then I can hear
When it was in or out
I needed more time to play Mama
Can't forget you made them plates (Can't Forget)
Can't forget you made you them plays (Can't Firget)
Woke me and my bros for school (Yes you did)
Brushed our hair and half our face
Vaseline in the winter
Couldn't have our Chocolate skin all chafed
Somethin that you taught me to embrace
We was born w. 2 strikes
Since birth we been doing that race
I want the world but I need you
And you said not to need a soul
Not even you
Once upon a time it was just me and you
For all the times you turned a blind eye
Ima see it through
Listen to the words I say Mama
The World is coming your way Mama
That's on the words I've prayed Mama
I'm setting stones in place Mama
The streets cold why'd I give em chase Mama
You told me so, you ain't gotta say it Mama
You shouldn't have to repeat yourself
If I can 'huh' then I can hear
When it was in or out I needed more time to play Mama
Said share, never let 'em take from us
Watch my sister and look out for my brothers
You shouldn't have to repeat yourself
If I can ' huh' then I can hear
When it was in or out
I needed more time to play Mama
(More time to play)
