El-P - Oh Mama lyrics

[Verse 1: k**er Mike & El-P] Gun in the holster be Right in the upholstery Somewhere right close to me Just in case the rollers be Rolling on the G My woman keep it in the hosiery I'm known in my town In those strips where high-rollers be I'm up early, where the money folders sippin' Folgers be A country boy chilling in Brooklyn like Lefty spoke for me f** with us You f** with the truth, we speak openly Never a rat, like Donnie Brasco, though Cause there ain't no hoe in me [Verse 2: El-P & (k**er Mike)] "Notice me, senpai!" they cry when I choke their speak I'll set this crooked city on fire to light the smokery Old timers speak of us hushed and clutch their rosaries I lust after greatness, I'm aiming right at its ovaries Better run from the future palooka (haul off) You acting like it's safe when the revolution's been (called off) There's liars on the loose, if we listen to you we're (all lost) The takers of the j**els never singing a tune at (all soft) [Hook: El-P] My mama said that I'm not living right She said, "I'm crying on you" She said, "I waited up for you all night" I said, "I'm trying mama" My mama said that I'm not living right She said, "I'm crying on you" She said, "I waited up for you all night" I said, "I'm trying mama" [Verse 3: k**er Mike] I smoke the holy herb, get high as hell and meditate Swear to God, sh**'s so good, fat boy'll levitate God gift to man, how the f** they try to legislate Mom's, she recovering, tell me I over-medicate I tell her, "Holy f**, Jesus Christ, give me a f**ing break" She said, "Don't curse your mama, goddammit," and threw a dinner plate (damn) [Verse 4: El-P] I heard it in Brooklyn where all the sinners stay You running out of ways to go f** yourself, I will innovate The skin of your sh**ty grin will disintegrate Every sickening sentence'll cheapen the tricks you venerate Set the phaser to face-plate-incinerate Run the Jewels, run with the Borg, baby, a**imilate [Hook: El-P & (k**er Mike)] My mama said that I'm not living right She said, "I'm crying on you" She said, "I waited up for you all night" I said, "I'm trying mama" My mama said that I'm not living right She said, "I'm crying on you" She said, "I waited up for you all night" I said, "I'm trying mama" My mama said that I'm not living right (They want us dying, mama) My mama said that I'm not living right (But I ain't crying, mama) My mama said that I'm not living right (You raised a lion mama Now you lying, mama) My mama said that I'm not living right I said, "I'm trying mama" (I'm crying on you, crying on you) I said, "I'm trying mama"
