{Verse 1}
lets take it back to the dayz when ma momma used to
comb ma hair all one way when she used to button up
ma shirt, the dayz when i used to ask first before i went-
out-to-play she loved me n she knew i loved her too
never ever once did she feel ashamed of me but its
a game 2 me playin with emotions not the same 4 me now
im prayin for devotion in ma education now im older
and ma shoulders come attached with these boulders
n the sun that used to be above ma head now coverd
by brown clouds n its colder n ma momma no longer
knows if i love her coz i havent told her damn well
atleast i know shes the wife of a great man
taken too many wrong turns, now im lost in life
can i count the times ma mommas cried over
times av let her down in recent times roughly nine
n i dont even lead a life of crime so if it hits double figures
thats far too many times!!
{Verse 2}
as im sittin contemplatin why im writin this
why im thinkin these thots n why im fightin this
routine my life has turned into n who wud i normally
turn to in desperate times like this ma tongue twists
but ma mum thinks im takin the piss makin a bit of
a mockery fakin a kiss a shock-to-me but now im thinkin
of different ways to make it i wanna make ma mum smile
n not for a while i wanna make ma mum smile coz i wanna
tell her shes everything i have 2 rely on n i want ma mum
to know that iv never let her down in purpose if its anything
she is ma lifes main purpose as i try to focus on the road
ahead of me i take a look in the rearview n its momma tellin
me that she neva wanted me to be anything i didnt want to
be, a front to me - it wasnt - how fun to be some1 who
really really wasnt i wanna change as the instrumental
fades
