Hey Mama

Is it, that bad to be out of moves?
Playing till somebody lose
Stubborn like a muleAnd I’m mad at you
Yeah, I’m really mad at you
Don’t ask why, that’s just how I get by
Take the pain from my life
I don’t keep it inside
Let it though, but why I gotta blame you?
I know I gotta get a grip on my life
And it hit me last night
That you won’t be around
For my whole life span…
And I can’t
Exist in this world
Without you by my side
You were sent to this world
To pursue new heights
And you coulda been a star
Like you are, VIP
But instead you made me
You been battered and bruised
Made plan and stood through
You were standing to lose
Made it out and withdrew
From a life full of strife
Now you find little signs
Of the fights put behind
And I sigh and you cry
And we fight, then we fight
Every time, that I find
Asinine bottom lines
You’re the centre of my life
Promise imma make it right
Hey mama
Imma wake you up when it’s all done
Renovate your heart and soul, yeah
Imma take my place where I’m ought to
And I wear your pain like armour
Cos I know that you by my side
And I won’t let you lose your pride
And I hate that I made you cry
Even once in my whole damn life
You say you’re turning 40+10
Afraid to let it be what it is, no offence
Imma keep it real with you
50 isn’t pitiful, it’s physically invisible
Your age is unseen
Understand what I mean?
You’ve always been a princess
And now you are a queen
And if it’s up to me
You gon live forever
Imma endeavour
To take every letter
Nouns, words and verbs
And share em to the world
So they all know
Imma teach my kids about you
So they’re strong tho
All about creating and
Never taking away
Imma tell em what you told me about
Every single day
They gon bless you
Choose to impress you
Who’s gonna stress you
After what you been through with me
I need, somebody who gon love and never leave
And all you ever been is what you know Im gonna need
I know I never seem to be appreciative
But imma keep repeating this
Until you feel I’m meaning it, i mean
Every single word that I say
My heart’s on display
I worked my mistakes
To be worth you one day
And I know I know I know I know I know
I never say it
But mama, you are the greatest
Hey mama
Imma wake you up when it’s all done
Renovate your heart and soul, yeah
Imma take my place where I’m ought to
And I wear your pain like armour
Cos I know that you by my side
And I won’t let you lose your pride
And I hate that I made you cry
Even once in my whole damn life
