Generate meaning
1
Yeah, this one's dedicated, to my grandmother, and your grandmother
2
It's all love, let's not forget who raised us, word up
3
Big Mama, my grandmother, my main girl
4
I love you much more than the scandalous world
5
As a young boy you gave me whoopings to save my life
6
Cursed me out, to keep me out the streets at night
7
'Cause my momma had me when she was young
8
So you took on the responsibility to raise your grandson
9
You taught me if a task is once begun, Todd
10
Never leave it 'til it's done, Todd
11
Be thy labor great or small Todd
12
Do it well or not at all, God
13
Big Mama, my blood is your blood
14
When the whole world's against me, I know I got your love
15
If I was in a cell for the rest of my life
16
I know I'd hear your prayers in the middle of the night
17
Used to sit me on your lap and teach me mother with
18
Early Sunday morning for them salmon and grits
19
I love you baby, you the one and only, that's a fact
20
'Til death do us part, I'ma always have your back
21
You beefed 'cause you heard that I was cursin' in my raps
22
Eighty-six, still you want to run and get the straps
23
I love you, I promise you I care for you deep
24
'Cause when I had bronchitis you would rock me to sleep
25
Rub me down with green alcohol
26
Little brown-skinned lady bout five feet tall, Big Mama
27
[Chorus]
28
Early one Sunday morning
29
Breakfast was on the table (you gave me unconditional love)
30
There was no time to eat, she said to me
31
Boy hurry to Sunday school (you gave me unconditional love)
32
I remember when you told me certain friends wasn't real
33
I didn't want to listen, I swore I knew the deal
34
Come to find out, everything you said was true
35
Who I end up goin' to for advice? You
36
I love you, that's why you got nurses and maids
37
Ever since I got paid, you ain't never been afraid
38
That's granddaddy wife, she taught me how to think
39
How to navigate through life, you made the sacrifice
40
You kept on livin', 'cause when my granddaddy died
41
It took all your might, but you ain't quit on life
42
We took trips down South, biscuits and chicken
43
Me you granddad and Alison, trippin'
44
Remember, you used to pick me up from junior high
45
And classmates laughed when the Buick rolled by
46
Remember, I pulled my privates out in class
47
And from Farmers to Dunkirk you straight whooped my (woo!)
48
The best cookin' a man could ever taste
49
It's written in my heart, it can never be erased
50
Thank you so much, you taught me well
51
How to not get souped up, because I'm LL
52
How to walk the street, and hold my head real high
53
How to live with Christ and not be afraid to die
54
We sipped daiquiris, but you never told moms
55
We even shared beers, Big Mama my dear
56
A toast to a woman that raised a man
57
In popular demand all across the land
58
You're my lawyer, my teacher, my doctor, my friend
59
My mother, my father, you with me 'til the end
60
I love you, I mean that from the bottom of my heart
61
That's the reason why my record's number one on the charts
62
I'm a tell it like it is, I love you forever
63
Dead or alive, we'll always be together
64
Big Mama I love you
65
[Chorus]
66
I dedicate this to the Big Mama's everywhere
67
The ones who raised us, when nobody else was there
68
The ones who held us and told us it'll be alright
69
When gunshots was goin' off every night
70
Taught us how to lock the door and check the peephole
71
And how to swallow Vicks when we had a chest cold
72
How to stay proud, and represent hard
73
Eat plenty baby, but first say grace for God
74
Big Mama, I'm a miss you
75
When one of us leave this earth
76
But baby for what it's worth, I love you since the date of my birth
77
And if it wasn't for my children, I would want to go first
78
You're the reason I'm the man I am today
79
The inspiration, for me to be LL Cool J
80
When you told me "Knock 'em Out," I brought you home a Grammy
81
I learned to be tough from Big Mama and Aunt Cammy
82
A black man that was raised by black women
83
On tour, sippin your special honey and lemon
84
You told me, gargle with vinegar water and salt
85
The concert was hot, thanks to your support
86
Girl, you're the one I love
87
Whether right here with me or smilin' from up above
88
Trouble or no trouble, you always had my back
89
So I had to let you know your son appreciates that, Big Mama
90
[Chorus: x2]
