Paroles
Look, mama, I made it, single mother, you ain't have any help Now your son's on a magazine shelf Look, mama, I made it, Benz logo on the car keys And my name in bright lights on the marquee Look, mama, I made it, some of your friends said I would fail Said I'd end up dead or in jail, but Look, mama, I made it, I knew I'd get my life on track And I knew you always had my back, look, mama, I made it You only get one on this earth, my mother is first She'd tell you I been gutter from birth I'm runnin' through the alley with my homie blood on my shirt Thinkin' if I don't get revenge for him, what am I worth? Nothing is worse than a mother seeing her son in a hearsе In front of the church, the hood is full of hunger and thirst Stuck in rеverse, stuck in a curse, gun under my shirt I got it out the mud and the dirt with nothing but work I stayed in a little trouble, got me some steel knuckles Punching like Ali Muhammad, 'til you probably vomit, now that's a ill scuffle Life was a real struggle Tryna find guidance, I'm watchin' TV like "What the f**k can I learn from Will's uncle?" Sh*t, I survived, they owe me a giant trophy Now I'm arriving at islands, somewhere fly and low-key with my Hawaiian Sophie The icy Rollie, no buying Rice-A-Roni Kobe steak with a side of gnocchi, lay back and light a stogy like (Ahh) Sh*t changed, my boy Only thing that never changed me is the fame, my boy I'm tryin' to exchange my pain for joy My homie left the dope game for real estate, I don't blame my boy And you b*t*hes do better I'm tryna curve me a dime for every time I couldn't rub two nickels together Y'all thought it was funny I got ninety-nine problems, ain't none of 'em money Who laughin' now? Look, mama, I made it, single mother, you ain't have any help Now your son's on a magazine shelf Look, mama, I made it, Benz logo on the car keys And my name in bright lights on the marquee Look, mama, I made it, some of your friends said I would fail Said I'd end up dead or in jail, but Look, mama, I made it, I knew I'd get my life on track And I knew you always had my back, look, mama, I made it When I was hungry, you was able to put somethin' on the table Colored money with the staples, crumbs the government had gave you We'd curl up on the couch under the blanket in winters Watchin' 'em draw the lottery, hopin' and prayin' we winners It was rough, but not enough to cancel Thanksgiving dinner Stuffin' tough, you'd warm it up and give a plate to my n***as Never forgot, seventh grade, I had three shirts from Lacoste Three pair of jeans from Boss, I'd mix and match 'em, of course In the past, talked about your drug habit and sh*t Told that story enough, now I'm happy to spit 'Bout kitchen renovations, look how much these cabinets fit From rock bottom to thirty thousand dollar granite and trips To the grocery store, not on a budget Get what you want and love it They got your fresh bluefin, get another one, f**k it This for the single mom who did it when my dad was lackin' Funny he disappeared, but you made magic happen You pat my back and rub my chest when that asthma attackin' Baked me my favorite cake, I'd lick the batter laughin' You made everything better, mother, you're beautiful The dumb decisions I made, nothing to do with you You raised me better than that So whoever saw Michelle's son on corners with drugs, I knew better I apologize to the lovely woman I idolized That held me down since I arrived Look, mama, I made it, single mother, you ain't have any help Now your son's on a magazine shelf Look, mama, I made it, Benz logo on the car keys And my name in bright lights on the marquee Look, mama, I made it, some of your friends said I would fail Said I'd end up dead or in jail, but Look, mama, I made it, I knew I'd get my life on track And I knew you always had my back, look, mama, I made it Look, mama, I made it Look, mama, I made it Look, mama, I made it
