[Verse 1] Don't worry about him momma, he ain't really a man I don't fault you at all, you did the best that you can He chose to leave us both, that was part of his plan He didn't know at 22, I had legs to stand He didn't know at 22, I could hold my own He didn't know at 22, I be writin' this song Momma please don't cry He ain't worth them tears He ain't worth that stress He ain't worth them years you spent wondering, was it him or was you? I was young, still a baby, but a part of me knew You took care of me, so every part of me grew While he out running the streets to be a part of the crew I hated getting phone calls that he'll see me on the weekend Saturday come, and I ain't see him on the weekend My heartache is not your fault, me and you momma we is lost So momma get up [John Mayer - Heart of Life Sample] I hate to see you cry, lying there in that position (Cause you my one and only) I hate to see you cry, lying there in that position (Cause you my one and only) [Verse 2] PTA meetings, you was there by yourself See every other parent thought that you needed some help And every other parent thought that I was gonna be a misfit But now I'm great and that man missed it Wipe your tears momma, momma please don't cry I remember you yelling to him, “Please Don't Lie” He thought that if he sent me some letters in the mail That I wouldn't be mad, yeah damn he sad I know you wanted me at graduation But with this dough, we can go on vacation Far from heartache, far from lies So momma just smile, be far from cryin' Let the sun shine, the sky weather is blue My dad ask, “how you doing” You say, “better than you" [John Mayer - Heart of Life Sample] I hate to see you cry, lying there in that position (Cause you my one and only) I hate to see you cry, lying there in that position (Cause you my one and only)
