Lyrics The Mom Song - Insane Clown Posse

This is for mom
Miss Linda Harwood
Miss Cathy Hill
This is for you

I respect my mother with every step I take
She was there for my first step in the first place
Everybody wants out on their own
Now that I′m grown, I wanna be back home
In a world full of vipers
Only my mother's love was righteous
I feel I′ve been to hell and back three times
I could never sum it up with these rhymes

Lookin' for a story to share
With somebody, but they never seem to care
While I'm lookin′ for this person everywhere
I′m slippin' ′cause my mom is right here
Life moves along so fast
When I see real love at last it's past
That ain′t gonna happen to me
I can hear my conscience rappin' to me

It′s like hey, you've only got one real friend
From the cradle, to the grave, and back again
With unconditional love
That's my mother I′m speakin′ of

That's just the way it is
(That′s just the way it is)
My love will never change
(My love will never change)
That's just the way it is
(That′s just the way it is)
(Mamma)

And I know it's true, even in my darkest time
In my darkest hour when my heart is blind
And I′m givin' nobody respect
My mother's there to put my ass in check
′Cause she don′t play that Mister Famous trash
She was puttin' them diapers on my ass
She′s seen every side of me
It don't matter how thuggish I′d try to be

N.A.W. every week in the back yard
Now I'm in the big time, tryin′ to act hard
What mattered when I looked a years back
Was mamma, bringin' the chairs back
Supportin' every dream I got
You best believe, man, I dreamed a lot
Me and rude boy, I′m tryin′ to tell ya
Not a day goes by in life, we don't feel ya

We ain′t takin' nothin′ for granted
Mom's lasagna is so good I can′t stand it
Mrs. Hill always greets me with a hug
Now I see where Rudy got all his love

That's just the way it is
(That's just the way it is)
My love will never change
(My love will never change)
That′s just the way it is
(That′s just the way it is)
(Mamma)

That's just the way it is
(That′s just the way it is)
My love will never change
(My love will never change)
That's just the way it is
(That′s just the way it is)
(Mamma)

Everybody around me, they use me, and go for self
They want cash, equity, bank and wealth
Mom puts that on the shelf
All she cares about is my health
It all seems too good to be
As I'm battlin′ life, mamma's backin' me
And she only really wants one thing of mine
Just a little time

Mother, in this world of scars
Money and snakes and labeled wars
Whatever else life puts me through
It′s all number 2, when it comes to you
And your love is all I treasure
My real father just didn′t measure
He was gone, without a thing to say
I know he would have failed in comparison anyway

You gave me 3 times the love
Enough for you, him, and the God above
Rude boy, his daddy was strong
Stayed holdin' on, when the ease was gone
Now a days, everything′s all right
Millionaire rockin' these microphones all night
Makin′ all of our dreams come true
And we're full of love, mamma thanks to you

I′m still sorry about the China cabinet
Wish I could bring it all back now, dammit
Linda, Ron, Cathy and Ryo
We want you to know that we love you

That's just the way it is
(That's just the way it is)
My love will never change
(My love will never change)
That′s just the way it is
(That′s just the way it is)
(Mamma)

That's just the way it is
(That′s just the way it is)
My love will never change
(My love will never change)
That's just the way it is
(That′s just the way it is)
(Mamma)
