VERSE 1
Tell me how you did it tell me how u did it
You knew from birth that your child was destined to be the richest
Auntie jackie told stories bout u and the struggle
I heard i ate first and then you ate after
But theres nothing left
Whole plate was empty never knew we was broke It never really hit me
But now i understand
Adults eyes and what kids see
You protected me throwing them shades on so i couldn’t see it
Man i was fly
But lil did i notice you was crying
You could barely put on your shoes but my shirt was ironed
You so tired i wish i knew that
Why you do that
But now that i know im working so hard to get ur life back
CHORUS
Dear Mama x6
Dear Mama x6
VERSE 2
You kept my head my shoulders
Waking up 5 in the morning
Just to drop me at the neighbors house
These are things that i can’t forgot
You took me to disney world
Know you couldn’t afford it but we still boarded them planes every summer yea
Winter had northfaces and timbs i was stuntin yea
Sent me to college with all them loans mean something
Cause not for nothing i really owe you my life and thats why u got it coming
Paint you the perfect picture when i get that paint just gotta wait
For years i wanted to get you a place
And look ma now we here
Every morning i wake and now im feeling great
God gave me the greatest mother man i call it fate
CHORUS
Dear Mama x6
Dear Mama x6
