Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Rider shit
[Verse 2]
Having conversations with momma
Man, my life is a mess
Ain't been returning the texts
So she been reading the press
She got Google alerts
Them shits goes straight to her phone
She worry about me from home
You know, she raised me alone
[Verse 3]
She said, I heard you're back with you know who
I told her, girl, I'm always back with you know who
Yeah, and she like, who are we kidding?
You're 27, you're just being you
You're your father's child
Man, thank God you got some me in you
At least I always, at least I always see it through
At least I'm always being true to what you taught me
Retired teacher, but your words still got me evolving
Never get sloppy drunk, but alcohol is problem solving
[Verse 4]
And look, I hate it when you hate on all my girlfriends and assistants
Always convinced that there is someone better
Like that girl, from your gym who trains you
I know you wanna arrange it
You told me she's free Thursday
And I'm sure that she's an angel, but she don't want this life
The timing ain't right
Maybe one day, but even one day with us is the time of her life
We do things that people pay to document
You got the sweetest heart
But I'm not here to give out compliments, to boost nobodies confidence
[Verse 5]
Momma, I got no friends in this momma
I don't pretend with this momma
I don't joke with this momma
I'll pull the knife out my back, and I cut their throat with it momma
I'm Game of Thrones with it momma
I'm home alone with it momma
[Verse 6]
I really hate using this tone with you momma
I really hate getting aggresive on this phone with you momma
I really hate wasting your time to check a clone or two momma
It's just they're cloning me momma
Them **** wannabes momma
It's like, I'm the one they wanna be momma
I just can't be out here being vulnerable momma
I mean I kill em' every time they do a song with me momma
I sing the hooks, they sing along with me momma
What more they want from me momma
[Verse 7]
Yeah, this is a crazy life
But you and The Six raised me right
Don't ever take advice that was great advice
You and The Six raised me right, that shit saved my life
[Verse 8]
Yeah, having conversations with momma
We stopped talking ' bout dad
You know he dropping a single
He's saying this is his window
That **** still wearing linen
That **** still in the club
Call him after we get off the phone, and show him some love
That **** Memphis for real
Girl he love you to death
He made mistakes throughout his life that he still doesn't accept
But he just want our forgiveness
And fuck it look how we're living
I'm content with this story
Who are we not to forgive him
[Verse 9]
At least I've been to a prison
At least I know what it's like
I used to rap on the phone with one his friends doing life
And now I got me a Grammy, that could be part of the reason
Let's just call this shit even, we got some things to believe in
Do you remember back to Weston Road, Scarlett Road?
Hanging with Aaron Bell and Reny, shit coulda gone south for me
He looked out for me ma
He never let me do drugs
He let me shoot a gun one summer, but out there everyone does
He made me listen to his music, old music, soul music
Shit that can only be created if you go through it
I used to get teased for being black
And now I'm here, and I'm not black enough
'Cause I'm not acting tough, or making stories up of where I'm actually from
[Verse 10]
Yeah, but I just roll with it momma
Rolling Stones with it momma
Gotta be careful around Rolling Stones
Or anyone that's trying to throw stones at me momma
I'm not condoning it momma
They will not tear nothing down, I built this home for you momma
No, I don't call enough momma
I just been working with so little time for personal momma
Yeah, hard labor, let me pay the price
You and The Six raised me right, that shit saved my life
