Lyrics For My Mama - Mercy Great

I been thinking about my mama
Cause I know I'm getting older so I know she getting older
Wrote this song for my mama
Marijuana got me coping since a shorty I been blowing
Why I lie to you mama?
Hope you trust me one day maybe you my number one lady
You my mother fucking mama
I been dancing around with Satan but you praying for them angels
God sent them to me Mama

Somewhere central San Diego on the playground playing with me I remember mama
Back on Wabash you woke me up crying screaming at the roaches I remember mama
Section 8 baby never lived in the hood cause you didn't want us in no drama
But I stayed in the buildings with Lil Justin we was tippin I'm black sheep like my father
I know I told you that I'll stop drinking
But I been doing that everyday including weekends
You used to tell me being grown wasn't easy
But I been floating in that life's pool on the deep end
And hanging with some niggas that you probably wouldn't agree with
Jesus, got to thank him cause we breathing
Nigga don't work then he hurt so he leaching
Fuck over you don't ever give a bitch a reason
You used to tell me niggas wasn't for me mama
Who knew one day I'll be talking to your honor
The mansion got your name on it just ain't bought it
I love so many things but you the most important
Well let me take you back to 1988
On 69th and Woodlawn where I first stayed
Whoever knew this baby boy would be Mercy Great
I love you mama look at all the greatest that you raised

I been thinking about my mama
Cause I know I'm getting older so I know she getting older
Wrote this song for my mama
Marijuana got me coping since a shorty I been blowing
Why I lie to you mama?
Hope you trust me one day maybe you my number one lady
You my mother fucking mama
I been dancing around with Satan but you praying for them angels
God sent them to me Mama

President say I'm a menace ain't a damn thing different I been going through some drama
A couple homies got murdered, up in college I was serving probably made my life harder
Now them dick boys lurking, don't call me Mike the call me Mercy why I'm screaming fuck Your Honor
Them niggas hate they ain't working they ain't spitting with a purpose look baby boy you got it
I know one day we won't be here hope it's you first for Saniya just to be fair
That just fucked me up but I got to think deeper
I'm sorry I been in the party dancing with the reaper
And Chilling with some niggas that been cracking with the visas
Rio still trapping Kendall still having seizures
Told me when she was the one and when I didn't need her
But if you love her you do what you got to do just keep her
You used to tell me bitches wasn't for me Mama
Who knew one day I'd be talking your honor
She said you going hard but need to go harder
I made dumb choices she knew I was smarter
Let me take you East Dago back in the day
On Pershing Ave where a nigga first stayed
Can't believe my step daddy slapped you in the face
God deal with him he then caused so much pain

I been thinking about my mama
Cause I know I'm getting older so I know she getting older
Wrote this song for my mama
Marijuana got me coping since a shorty I been blowing
Why I lie to you mama?
Hope you trust me one day maybe you my number one lady
You my mother fucking mama
I been dancing around with Satan but you praying for them angels
God sent them to me Mama
