Ayyo, I jus wrote this while listening to Kanye West's "Hey Mama" 2pac's "Dear Momma" and LL Cool J's "Big Mama" I hope you like it coz it came straight from the heart...
To My Momma Written By J-o-e.
When I was a kid, I never done what I was told
Some say I was a little shít, some say I was cold
But deep down, one women who granted me life
Through hours of labour, that was her sacrifice
It’s to my momma, the one who stuck straight thru
Made me happy whenever I felt down and blue
And even though at times I thought u didn’t understand
But u knew that my dad could only tell me how to be a man
I just want to say Ur appreciated for all that you’ve done
And take this as a thank u letter from Ur only son
I know I disappointed u at times, I didn’t have work
And I’m sorry that it hurt, I felt like I was a jerk
When pops was out of a job, when times were hard
But we lived thru that, even though we’re scared
I try and reminisce about the times u made me better
Whatever the weather u was always wit me forever
And even though I don’t show my love a lot
I just want to give u the piece of love that I have got
I hope that my memories of u will never fade away
And no matter what people do, it don’t care what they say
U taught me more than listen to other peoples hearts
Told me to keep it real, stay in school and stay smart
And even though I felt that I failed u, I’m sorry
But I’m fully grown now, there’s no need for u to worry…
This Is To My Momma
Stuck Wit Me Thru The Drama
This Is To My Family
Kept Me Away From Insanity
I know I seemed a bit crazy to u, so I dedicate this song
Kept my mind on my ambitions and had to right my wrongs
I know I wasn’t the best child, in late and being wild
Even when I done something bad, she cried and smiled
She knows I can’t be accounted for all my actions
U took me to places I would of never seen, saw so many attractions
I need u in my life, I’m Ur only son and with that in mind
I tried to keep it real and write a rhyme all in time
Even though u thought I was wasting time in doing this
U still prayed for me every night and gave me a kiss
And I’m thankful, there’s no words that can describe how I feel
U kept me from the streets because u knew they were real
U were there to wipe my tears, shared Ur views on my fears
And told me about this life full of pressure and years
And when my grandma died, u were the first to come to me
Anytime I was in any trouble, u would come and run to me
I know I felt I could of better, so with this love letter
I’m telling you now that no one else could do it better…
She’s the woman that raised me during this life of drama
So without further ado, This is to my momma…
This Is To My Momma
Stuck Wit Me Thru The Drama
This Is To My Family
