[Intro]
She really, really, really, stayed on her stuff, no matter what, like we never really went without
I never met my real father. Like a day in my life I didn't know him
[Verse 1]
Yeah
As I, sit all alone in my 4 corner room with these plaques on the wall now
The same way that I did when I sat in the hole and you was the only one to answer when I called out
When they hit me with the petition I really hated you for it cause I didn't understand what it's all about
Let me wind up dead? Nah, now you up in Red Rocks looking at your baby rocking large crowds
Because we all fall down like the Kanye song or the ash from the blunt smoking all day long
And to compound, didn't know how to deal with my anger, then we all drown in the storm, think about it when you can't calm down
Kinda like a sing-along, at the bottom of the screen's all, how the ball bounce (big facts)
And I ain't talking weed at all but it's funny how I'm King of y'all, got the palm out (it's a wrap)
We didn't understand mental illness back then, something mom's gotta talk 'bout
Can't rely on that white lady with a chalkboard when this little black nigga's getting chalked out
You wasn't gon' let me die in a jail or a ward, and you could've just walked out
Remember when I signed my deal at the party, dude who tripped on you almost got socked out
Besides Sarah dying, worst pain I ever felt was you and I having a falling out
Boy, no game and they keep it real I think you and Tiff got a few things to talk out
You tell me how to make things happen on my own and take accountability for what I caused, wow
There's no way I could ever pay you back so here's a letter to my hero that I jot down, I call it "Dear Mama"
[Chorus]
(Dear Mama) Dear Mama
(Dear Mama) Dear Mama
(Dear Mama) Dear Mama
I call it Dear Mama (Ain't no way I can pay you back, so 'fore I fade to black)
Dear Mama (I want you to play this back and know I'm always thinking of you)
Dear Mama (No way I can pay you back, so 'fore I fade the black)
Dear Mama (I want you to play this back and know I'm always thinking of you)
She really, really, really, stayed on her stuff, no matter what, like we never really went without
I never met my real father. Like a day in my life I didn't know him
