FLAT shasta (feat. Ash Leone)

Mama

I used to watch you scam and sell dope, but as of now I don't know what to tell folks

When they ask me 'bout you

Knowin' it's been a couple months since we done spoke

So I try to break the tension with a joke, huh

Truth is, Mama, you need meds for schizo but you won't take it

If you lose all your marbles, you ain't gon' have none to play with

A Black woman who cryin' for help and I'm tryin' to save her

The last thing you want to be called in this world is crazy, aw, poor baby

I just prayin' that your Shasta ain't flat

'Cause you say a lot of shit that you could never take back

Is that the reason why my daddy left? Just tell me the truth

My sister Brie act just like you

A whole litter, you push seven of us out by the age of twenty-five

I don't see you when I look you in the eyes

I'm lookin' for Aisha, I'm lookin' for the woman that's inside

Just let me know when she arrives

Mouth full of pills in front of us, could've died

The world on your shoulder, how heavy is suicide?

If God took you then, I wouldn't wanna be alive

Shit, if God took you then, I would be at war with God, yeah

I wish I could save your smile

I wish I could ease your mind like you have done for me

Mama, just stay a while

Don't even like the tears that fall from my eyes

I'm not crazy at all

I'm not crazy at all

I'm not crazy at all

I'm not crazy at all

Sometimes I wonder if the reason I don't treat bitches right

Is 'cause I never seen you get treated right

If you pass me the cycle, then I'm fucked up for life

'Cause every **** that you get with, you fight

Uh, just let me know what happens when all of the hugs run out

Mama, what do I do when all the drugs run out?

Mama, your mind like a drink left in the sun

The bubbles are gone, the damage is done

But I keep pourin' my love into your glass

Prayin' one day this storm gon' pass, I need you bad

I, I need you bad

To the woman that smoke weed with my brothers right before class

To the woman that I love way more than my fuckin' dad

Can I borrow one of your laughs and can I steal one of your smile?

And can I hold onto your joy? 'Cause I ain't felt that since a child

And if it wasn't for your womb, I wouldn't be breathin' right now

I swear to God, I just need you right now

I wish I could save your smile

I wish I could ease your mind like you have done for me

Mama, just stay a while

Don't even like the tears that fall from my eyes

I'm not crazy at all

I'm not crazy at all

I'm not crazy at all

I'm not crazy at all

Mama, if you hear me, then I'm still your son

Even when the darkness comes, I won't run

I pray one day that you find your way back

And that your Shasta never goes flat

I'm sorry for not noticin' sooner, you know I'm one of your troopers

Forgave you for everything, you only a fuckin' human

Remember we lived on Hoover, on church grounds, hallelujah

When you beat the shit out me for talkin' to you like I'm stupid

Used to work two jobs, but you don't work no more

I know you hurt, but I don't want to see you hurt no more

I feel like dyin' or just killin' myself

Watchin' you lose your mind and can't do shit to help

****, you done drink all my motherfuckin' Shastas?

****, you over here, lettin' you sleep on the couch, and you in this bitch drinkin' all of my shit?

Now if you don't go take yo' ass down to the motherfuckin' Dairy
