16
You work late nights just to keep on the lights
17
Mommy got me training wheels so I could keep on my bike

And you would give me anything in this world
19
Michael Jackson leather and a glove, but didn't give me a curl

And you never put no man over me

7 years old, I caught you with tears in your eyes
23
Cause a nigga cheatin' tellin' you lies then I started to cry

As we knelt on the kitchen floor

I said Mommy I'm a love you so you don't hurt no more
26
And when I'm older, you ain't gotta work no more
27
And I'm a get you that mansion that we couldn't afford
28
See you're unbreakable unmistakable
29
Highly capable, baby that's makin' loot

A livin' legend too, just look at what heaven do

Send us an angel, and I thank you.

Forrest Gump mama said, life is like a box of chocolates
40
My mama told me "Go to school get your doctorate."
41
Somethin' to fall back on, you could profit with
42
But still supported me when I did the opposite
43
Now I feel like it's things I gotta get
44
Things I gotta do, just to prove to you
45
You was getting through, can the choir please
46
Give me a verse of "You Are So Beautiful To Me"
47
Can't you see? Your like a book of poetry.
48
Maya Angelou, Nicky Jovanni, turn 1 page and there's my Mommy

Come on Mommy just dance wit me, let the whole world see your dancing feet

Now when I say "Hey" ya'll say "Mama" now everybody answer me.

Tint the windows, ride around the city and let your friends know.

67
Just tell me what kind of S-Type Donda West like?
68
