Ty Boyland - Mama lyrics

[Automated voice message: Jai Musiq] [Voicemail: Jai's mom] [Chorus: Jai Musiq] Yeah that's my mama, that's my lady 19 years old but in your eyes, I'm still your baby Just thinking back on all the trouble that you saved me And everyday I thank the Lord that you made me Appreciating all the things you've done for me (I love you mama) 50+ but still on fleek (yeah that's my girl, yeah that's my mama) Protecting me from things that I couldn't even see (I love you mama) Despite it all, doing it so gracefully. Thank you Ma for raising me [Verse 1: Jai Musiq] It was 1996, in Whitehaven at the Methodist That's where it all began, and you've had my back ever since Had a couple tumors that you came up in to labor with And I still made it out, you were made for it, you prayed for it Of all the girls in the world, you're my favorite Thinking bout where I am and the sacrifices you made for it MCS yeah you slaved for it, music cla**es you paid for it And I'ma give it back so that you can take it and savor it I see you doing things and doing it all with no help And it can't be good for your health putting everybody before yourself, and you give it all til it's nothing left It's like you ain't got time for yourself You been a wife and mother for 20+ years, so it's time to put it on the shelf All the burdens people put on you, all the trials that you got me through All the times that you cured a sore throat and a runny nose with some chicken soup All this and many more things, it's a lot of stuff that I can say to you God already knew what was up when He messed around and He gave me you [Bridge: Jai Musiq] You're the strongest person I know, and I mean that fa sho Even when we were going through it you always gave me hope And I know, I know… sometimes I get a little crazy But you know I got it from you cause I'm your baby [Chorus: Jai Musiq] Appreciating all the things you've done for me (I love you mama) 50+ but still on fleek (yeah that's my girl, yeah that's my mama) Protecting me from things that I couldn't even see (I love you mama) Despite it all, doing it so gracefully. Thank you Ma for raising me [Phone Call: Jai Musiq and Jai's mom] [Verse 2: Jai Musiq] And now we in it for a lifetime. Whenever I need to call you're my lifeline Have you sitting up close at Grammys in that red dress, just ready for the spotlight In some red bottoms, that's Louboutins. Cause you're always Christian influencing You would always tell me if I wanted it to gone and do it then I'ma get you that trip out to Dubai, in the Palm Islands looking too fly Even when I went to college, you were always there to guide Yeah, wouldn't want no one else by my side It's always been you and I, yeah you've been my ride or die, fa sho [Chorus: Jai Musiq]
