Lyrics
HOOK Another year and we’re all getting older Another season passed by seems colder Another load weighs down my shoulder Maaa, in case, I have not told ya
I got some things on my mind I gotta say ma I appreciate everything and the way ma , every day ma You raised me up …you know i love ya Ain’t no other that’s my mother
Verse One: early on in life you made sure I got my lesson way I used to act out had you mad stressin they want to hold me back of course momma wouldn’t have it if they could see me now they be like woah what happened they were wrong I grew strong I grew up fast I wish sometimes all those times that they could last I left home 16 with my books packed when I look back at all the things I couldnta had without you raisin me patiently amazingly way you play with freddie now i see how you played with me every day you’d work hard but stay with me and every night I knew you would wait with me in the hospital obstacles plaguing me in a room with no window you a ray to me in fact you was my whole sun shinin radiantly better days come you used to say to me but didn’t fake sometimes like you saw the truth when done talkin to you I feel like I saw a sooth when all is said and done headin home all is through - - - - moms, I owe it all to you
Verse 2: 18 nurse told me how you stayed when I was concussed i couldn’t remember a single thing that we’d discuss I kept askin same questions but never once did you not sincerely answer this kid you loved. that meant a lot cause the last thing I do remember was hearin January when I thought it was november you had a way of dealin stuff with this air it kept me calm when I could have been a scared kid even laughin when I should have had fear within I hope you smile tears of joy when you hear this you the one in my life no there ain’t no other just like it says on the gift that you buy your mother what they say is so true get me through the drama real not fake drama sorry for mistakes momma don’t get me wrong I don’t forget all the happy times bein as it is now this is on my mind plus when it’s tough counts most moms you I trust you I’m just, like so just this do I must
Verse 3, 12 people meet me and they say they notice my smile it’s been a long road of hard times it’s been a while it must have been how you raised me in the younger years to keep me grounded sane underneath the recent tears people say they like the way that I make em laugh the way I grasp at em take and then I give back I like to think I followed you in the right path cant believe I teach kids the way you taught me math I’m not suprisingly your only kid that chose rap each and every one of us has got our own thanks to give so consider this from the whole fam we don’t forget big momma’s where our home’s at
