Mama's Pain In Me
Sumtimes I feel like God don’t want me
Because when I’m ready to give they don’t want anything from me
My mama sick, I aide her and it’s like nobody cares but me
Because they’re so tied up in their own self-pity
Why does it feel like my agony will last a lifetime?
Because my battles I never win
So victory will never be mine
I proceeded on this road
Yea, I stumbled a few times, but I broke thru
Because mama said the only one who can stop u is u
So whenever I fell I got up with my wounded knees
Stuck out my chest and said proudly
No matter how hard the struggle or how hard I fall I promise to keep going and give it my all
