Текст песни Hey Mama (Explicit) - Kanye West

(Hey Mama)
I wanna scream so loud for you
'Cause I'm so proud of you, and, uh
Let me tell you what I'm about to do
(Hey Mama)
I know I act a fool, but
I promise you I'm goin' back to school, and
Appreciate what you allowed for me, and, uh
I just want you to be proud of me (hey Mama)

I wanna tell the whole world about a friend of mine
This little light of mine, I'm finna let it shine
I'm finna take y'all back to them better times
I'm finna talk about my mama if y'all don't mind
I was three years old when you and I moved to the Chi
Late December, harsh winter gave me a cold
You fixed me up something that was good for my soul
Famous homemade chicken soup, can I have another bowl?

You work late nights just to keep on the lights
Mommy got me training wheels, so I could keep on my bike
And you would give me anything in this world
Michael Jackson leather and a glove, but didn't give me a curl
And you never put no man over me
And I love you for that mommy, can't you see?

Seven years old, caught you with tears in your eyes
'Cause a nigga cheatin', tellin' you lies, then I started to cry
As we knelt on the kitchen floor
I said, "Mommy, I'ma love you 'til you don't hurt no more"
And when I'm older, you ain't gotta work no more
And I'ma get you that mansion that we couldn't afford

See you're, unbreakable, unmistakable
Highly capable, lady that's makin' loot
A livin' legend too, just look at what heaven do
Send us an angel, and I thank you

(Hey Mama)
I wanna scream so loud for you
'Cause I'm so proud of you, and, uh
Let me tell you what I'm about to do
(Hey Mama)
I know I act a fool, but
I promise you I'm goin' back to school, and
Appreciate what you allowed for me, and, uh
I just want you to be proud of me (hey Mama)

Forrest Gump momma said, "Life was like a box of chocolates"
My mama told me go to school, get your doctorate
Something to fall back on, you can profit with
But still supported me when I did the opposite
Now I feel like it's things I gotta get
Things I gotta do, just to prove to you
You was getting through, can the choir, please
Give me a verse of "You Are So Beautiful To Me" (hey Mama)

Can't you see, you're like a book of poetry
Maya Angelou, Nikki Giovanni
Turn one page and there's my mommy
Come on mommy, just dance with me
Let the whole world see your dancing feet
Now when I say, "Hey", y'all say, "Mama"
Now everybody answer me

(Hey Mama)
I wanna scream so loud for you
'Cause I'm so proud of you, and, uh
Let me tell you what I'm about to do
(Hey Mama)
I know I act a fool, but
I promise you I'm goin' back to school, and
Appreciate what you allowed for me, and, uh
I just want you to be proud of me (hey Mama)

I guess it all depends though, if my ends low
Second they get up you gon' get that Benzo, tint the windows
Ride around the city and let your friends know (hey mama)

Tell your job, you gotta fake 'em out
Since you brought me in this world, let me take you out
To a restaurant, upper echelon
I'ma get you a Jag, whatever else you want
Just tell me what kind of S-Type Donda West like?
Tell me the perfect color so I make it just right
It don't gotta be Mother's Day, or your birthday
For me to just call and say

(Hey Mama)
I wanna scream so loud for you
'Cause I'm so proud of you, and, uh
Let me tell you what I'm about to do
(Hey Mama)
You know I love you so
I never let you go
Wrote this song just so you know
No matter where you go our love is true

(Hey Mama)

(Hey Mama)

(Hey Mama)

(Hey Mama)
