daddy wasn't home (mama raised me)
paul wall
and i'm still mommas baby
and i'm still mommas baby
and i'm still mommas baby
and i'm still mommas baby
my momma gave birth to a hell raising heavenly son
and my daddy was a fool addicted to brown
but my momma held me down
when me and big sister had nothing to eat
my momma gave up her last trying to make ends meet
working to provide for her fam
them long twelve's steps of hardway are all on your own
she did it for her children
struggling to make a living
and some how we still had food on thanksgiving
when i can barely talk momma taught me to pray
and right then i knew that we'd have a better life some day
she still give up her last just to see me smile
that's the definition of love for you child
my momma was my role model
just a bunch of pipe dreams of being richer
but as times got tougher my life just got rougher
it hurts so bad to see me watch my momma suffer
its so hard to cope when you so dead broke
so momma used to make me memorize the song quotes
in the middle of a session momma gave god praise
i knew what it meant to struggle at such an early age
remember them days she barely earned minimum wage
but made sure i had new cloths to start the seventh grade
and walked down the aisle
i praised he sent somebody that would make my momma smile
i just love to see that beautiful smile on momma face
my momma could never be replaced
give my momma that gucci dress
the times were hard but we done made it out the rain
the storm was severe but we overcame the hurricane
them rainy days seem to last so long
when them times got hard my momma told me be strong
my number 1 supporter ever since day one
and still till this day momma would die for her son
all them rainy days are done
no a days we taking trips to disney world just for fun
i put you in a benz take you out that nova
its been a long rough road
but that bumpy rides over
and until the day i'm in my grave
