Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Mama (Uh-huh)
Mama (Yeah-yeah)
I'm singin' mama
Aww-yeah, yeah, that's my mama (Uh)
I said, mama
I do this shit for my mama
Can't lie to my mama
I gotta cry for my mama, my mama
[Verse 2]
Look where I'm at mommy
Who woulda knew? (Yes)
Sometimes I miss the days where you'd take to school
Used to promise when I'm rich, that I would get your favorite whip
You was my lift before the lift, so you deserve you a coupe
Twenty plus years at the Post Office
You was workin' graveyard shifts for the both of us
You deserve a long vacation, a standing ovation
A shout-out for the genius notations
[Verse 3]
And it's you that I'm missin'
Every time I needed someone, you would listen
I'ma write you a song to put on everyday
So the times that I'm gone, you can smile when it plays
[Verse 4]
I'ma take you to the Grammys in a yellow suit
Put you in Chanel just to show 'em how my mama do
My number one fan, I'm your number one man
When I thought that I couldn't, you told me that I can
[Verse 5]
Mama (Uh-huh)
Mama (Yeah-yeah)
I'm singin' mama
Aww-yeah, yeah, that's my mama (Uh)
I said, mama
I do this shit for my mama
Can't lie to my mama
I gotta cry for my mama, my mama
[Verse 6]
'Cause you're the only woman in my life
Who makes me smile, you make me smile
'Cause you're the only woman in my life
Who makes me smile, you make me smile
[Verse 7]
First, yeah, I moved out, I was strugglin'
Didn't wanna tell, 'cause I know that you be worryin'
You told me, "Go back to college", but I went back to Cali
Had to celebrate a couple birthdays without me
Whooped my ass, so I had to learn a harder way
Bad lil ****, of course I was 'bout to get
Would never tell you one lie, okay, maybe on lie
You my favorite person, let's go 'head and make the song cry
[Verse 8]
And it's you that I'm missin'
Every time I needed someone, you would listen
I'ma write you a song to put on everyday
So the times that I'm gone, you can smile when it plays
[Verse 9]
You my idol and the one that I need
Best cook, best looks, you supported my dreams
Look, I'm thankful to be your son, it's my honor
Tonight I wanna quote Tupac, "Dear mama"
[Verse 10]
Mama (Uh-huh)
Mama (Yeah-yeah)
I'm singin' mama
Aww-yeah, yeah, that's my mama (Uh)
I said, mama
I do this shit for my mama
Can't lie to my mama
I gotta cry for my mama, my mama
[Verse 11]
Mama
Mama
Mama
Mama
Mama (I do this shit for my)
Mama (Can't lie to my)
Mama (I gotta cry for my)
Mama, my mama
[Verse 12]
'Cause you're the only woman in my life
Who makes me smile, you make me smile
'Cause you're the only woman in my life
Who makes me smile, you make me
