'Cause Grandmama (feat. Vandell Andrew)

Grandmama pray for me

That the Lord will make a way for me

Grandmama prayed for me

Now I'm living blessed

I ain't living stressed

And it's all because my grandmama

Prayed for me

That harm would stay away from me

Grandmama prayed for me

It hurt to see her go she found rest for her soul

But I'm grateful cause grandmama

Eva and classy bell

Gwendolyn and Jean

Four different queens

Instilled in me the same thing

Pride in who you are

I was raise were raised a king

You took care of ten kids

Made it look like a breeze

I remember sitting at your feet

As you reclined in that chair

Singing songs about the lord

I even remember your hair

You sang if the Lord called me now

I had my chance

That stuck with me

The sweetest soul

You didn't play

You would be quick to buck with me

The sweetest lady, yeah

You rose night and day uh

Grew even more beautiful uh

Even as you aged yeah

I remember your humming too

I remember your cooking, yum

I remember them spankings though

And after all it's said and done

You affected my life

In ways you probably never knew

Much more than DNA

I try my best to cherish you

You'll never be forgotten

With every breath

That remains true

Cause after all

I literally wouldn't be here without you cause

Think about your granny or your momma man where are they now

Are they in a nursing home are they really safe and sound

When was the last time you made that call

When's the last time you made your rounds?

When's the last time they heard your voice

When's the last you came around

Don't you remember all the years

That your grandmama was there

Sometimes she even raised y'all

When your own parents weren't there

Everything that she did was for

The unit man of the family

And we get grown and have kids

We'll face the music you understand me

Walking legacy huh

Each and everyday, yeah

Now you walk in legacy huh

Cause she paved the way yeah.

Now after all the kids "they" raised

And when "they" old and grey

Yeah "they" took care of us

Can the "us" take care of "they"

They affected your life

In ways you probably never knew

Much more than DNA

We try our best to cherish you

They should never be forgotten

With every breath

That's remains true

Cause after all without them,

There literary wouldn't be a you.

Where ever they are at right now

Your mom or your grandmama

Your father or grandfather

Just think about the memories y'all had

When you feel that feeling

Or hear that small voice

Don't hesitate to pick up the phone and call them

Give them their flowers while they are here so they can enjoy them.
