Generate meaning
1
My mama showed me what love really means
2
17 years old she had to give up on her dreams
3
Couldn't even go to college, she had so much to loose
4
It ain't a woman alive that could fill my mama shoes
5
Put ya life on the line, ya mama i know its painful
6
That's why I had to let you know that I'm thankful
7
Over the years i know I put you through a lot
8
Seems like I'm starting more, the older that I got
9
And even though it seems like things change, mama
10
My love for you is still the same, mama
11
It's hard raising a young, black male
12
But you kept me on the right track
13
I never seen a jail cell
14
Now who'd think in elementary
15
Hey! That these record labels would mention me one day
16
Disrespectful to my school teachers, that's right
17
Mama catch me, put a whoopin' to my backside
18
You always was a black queen, mama
19
And now you raised a young king, mama
20
I finally understand I need you to survive
21
You the backbone of my life
22
I need you to be alive
23
Without you here, then I might as well die
24
You a angel sent from heaven
25
You the reason that I'm fly
26
You did what no other mother can
27
The plan is to show you that I understand
28
You are appreciated
29
Lady, don't you know we love ya? Sweet lady
30
Dear Mama
31
Lady, place no one, sweet lady
32
You are appreciated
33
Lady, don't you know we love ya?
34
Back then being pregnant young was rare
35
Still raised me yourself and had to raise me young was unfair
36
But you made a way
37
You never gave up
38
Got your first job at Friday's and got payed up
39
I mean mugged any guy that tried to talk to ya
40
Don't even look my mama way, I woulda fought for ya
41
They looked at me and laughed
42
I was like ain't nothing funny
43
My mind set was can't nobody take my mama from me
44
Sorry if I was too overprotective of ya
45
But that was my lil way of lettin you know I love ya
46
One bedroom apartment, it was just you and I
47
Late nights watching X-Files, you and I
48
I always had the latest J's and the newest clothes
49
All my friends always asked what kinda shoes are those
50
You treated me like the young king I grew up to be
51
But know I got a million kids looking up to me
52
How does it feel to know that you the reason
53
Looked how it all payed off, mama you the reason
54
Yo kids always came first, even before you
55
That's why I never ever put no one before you
56
I counted on you every time
57
You never let me down
58
For those who thought you would fail, tell them look at me now
59
You did what no other mother can
60
And the plan is to show you that i understand
61
You are appreciated
62
Lady, don't you know we love ya? Sweet lady
63
Dear mama
64
Lady, place no one above ya, sweet lady
65
You are appreciated
66
Lady, don't you know we love you
