[Verse 1]
Dear Mamma no comma
Cause this a run-on statement that I been tryna get out
I often wonder what my life would be like with you here
I been talkin' to the sky for like 20 good years
Most things I know, I learned from observation
Know my daddy still ain't over you cause every conversation
Seems turns into a Vivie talk, a Vivie talk
I listen till he piss me off, and then I'm out
Cause it hurts too much sometimes to imagine
You put up with this lying a** n***a
An addict , a cheater
Potentially a woman beater
I'd never know
Because if he ever hit you, you never would've told
Cause you loyal like that
Protected him in the midst of his darkest times
Held him down, he was spoiled so bad
Probably wouldn't have abused you
Or the d** if he knew that he would lose you
Before love
[Hook]
Love took you home
Laid you to rest
I ask why but why ask why when I got the best
Angels watching over me
Angels watching over me
[Verse 2]
Aye I'm still singing and rapping
I'm still bringing the magic
Still reeking up havoc
But still, you can see me, but I can't see you
And the older I get, the more I need you
I ain't had a real hug since '93
Feel like I haven't known real love entirely
Sometimes I need somebody in my corner right or wrong
Somebody who support me if I didn't write a song
Some of your friends say you're turning in your grave
Cause I never finished school
And I act a damn fool when I drink
Posting pictures on the Internet smoking mad weed
My brother was the good one and I was the bad seed
Exactly what people try to do comparing me to him
When I'm defenseless everybody like to plead the fifth
I signed my deal all of a sudden they believe again
But if I died today, I doubt they'd even shed a tear
[Hook]
Love took you home
Laid you to rest
I ask why but why ask why when I got the best
Angels watching over me
Angels watching over me
