Lyrics
I only love my bed and my mama, I'm sorry That's facts What's up, Michelle? Miss Michelle That's what they call you 'round the way, right? Uh [Joell Ortiz] Mama's eyes seen some things that made her proud now Fans cheer her baby name, they say it loud now Her baby boy on TV, she be bugging when she see me She be crying when she call me, when I'm touring she can't see me Mama miss me, makes her sad, but she happy when I'm leaving Always tells me go with God, I keep Jesus right here with me Mama's eyes used to tear up for a different set of reasons We won't talk about those nights, let's just focus on these evenings We be watching flicks together on her old LED TV Order food from anywhere or she chef up some baked ziti That's my grandma recipe, we both miss her, yes indeed We agree, mama gon' live it up while granny rest in peace Mama, mama, I'm emotional 'cause God keep blessing me I stopped by, you wasn't there, Pat said you had therapy I forgot you go and chat with Miss Gonzalez every Tuesday Helps you cope with all your losses and remind you it's a new day Anyway, on your dresser left a quarter of that puré That you liked from up in Dyckman since the last one wasn't true haze I'm 'bout to step in this meeting with MTV Call me when you back at the crib, on the fridge, I left a G Took a while (Took a while), to reach this type of peace we own (Peace we own) But we're here (But we're here), moving forward, loving strong All that's worth having is worth struggling for We didn't have it all, but we're here to win (Yeah) [Joell Ortiz] Mama, I'm so proud of you in case you didn't know Not the verbal type of son and plus I'm always on the go But see, I do talk to these beats and so I figured I would show How much I love you through this flow, perform this at my show Have every light up in the air until the venue starts to glow Almost as much as your smile does when I walk through your door I be trying not to think about a life without you with me But these years is moving fast, I can't believe that you'll be 60 Please don't hit me for just screaming out your age into the public But you still look 40 something, you should love it I remember I would wake you up with raps while you was sleeping Loose leaf paper in my hand, half awoke, you said, "Keep reading" Mama, I just got the chills, we ain't worried 'bout the bills All the cereals is real, we ain't munching on no frills I ain't doing drug deals, you ain't using drugs still No more mice across the floor, you like how them rugs feel Mama, mama, look at us, 'member things was looking rough? Daddy looked the other way, they looked at us with such disgust But now things is looking up So here's a song for the only face I saw when I looking off that bus Took a while (Took a while), to reach this type of peace we own (Peace we own) But we're here (But we're here), moving forward, loving strong All that's worth having is worth struggling for We didn't have it all, but we're here to win (Yeah)
