Angie Stone - If It Wasn't lyrics

[1] - If it wasn't for yo' momma Never thinkin' I was good enough If it wasn't for yo' brotha Always checkin' every move I gave up If it wasn't for that b**h Down the block always in yo' ear Be no room for messin' up But baby love, you'd be right here Tell me why must I, since they bought us things Suffer indefinitely for loving you Sugar why must I prove to anybody but you Feel I been chosen to loose I paid my dues, oh [Repeat 1] I'd been lying too, if I said to you That they're pressuring me away from you It's that she's run this Got us fighting over dumbness Got my heart on some numbness That's your momma and I can't take it (no more) I gets no joy but when I hurt So when it hurts, it really hurts [Repeat 1] Gotta learn to keep your family out the game When you're trying to do your thing They got more that's due Just cuz momma fed you right all your life Don't mean she walk on a perfect line Watch your step, or pay the price, sacrifice Mothers sisters fathers brothers cousin's aunts and uncles too You know them be the main cause Just because we know them Doesn't mean that they ain't workin' you Always it's something something something goin' on [Repeat 1]
