The real truth, I still grew with you my whole life

So you know my moves and why I'm used to this long life

Country momma, city son, growing up in strobe lights

Skin fair, didn't care, lying what you don't like

Notice something quick and more than others, we don't hope for nothing

Wanted me to be the young'n safe around my older brothers

Things change, rearrange, I was growing up and

Wrote a bunch of poems tryna be my own only one

You taught me how to take care of all the people around

How to separate who's down for you and who's keeping you down

How to paint a pretty picture when all the pieces are found

How to keep it going for all them I ain't seen in a while

Gave no reason to doubt, 'cause of you I'm never lazy

Gave you a reason to smile, always up and working daily

I mean you made me, and then you raised me

And it'd be crazy, if I wasn't grateful for you

And you see in everything that I try

Told me stop sleeping on all the dreams that I got

Couple seasons come by, the yard's trees in the sky

Open your eyes momma, there ain't no reason to cry

And you see in everything that I try

Told me stop sleeping on all the dreams that I got

Couple seasons come by, the yard's trees in the sky

Open your eyes momma, there ain't no reason to cry

I was fifteen, trusting not a soul like it's not nothing

But time flies and now I call you my godmother

'Cause you was there for me, saw me taking care of everything

So you said you want a hand in taking care of me

I questioned so many times, accused it of being lies

And through every little cry, you showed me you by my side

Showed me over my mind, you a mom on the job

Down to leave another person hurt for me and work with me

Then irritate and yell at me just like the one who gave birth to me

And through every attitude, tell me that it's worth it see

I know I'm a handful

But you know I'm searching for the bands, I'm a man too

You made sure when things happen, it don't break me

So many changes in my life and you was through the most

So you helped shape me, greatly, and my momma thanks you

And it'd be crazy, if I wasn't grateful for you

And you see in everything that I try

Told me stop sleeping on all the dreams that I got

Couple seasons come by, the yard's trees in the sky

Open your eyes momma, there ain't no reason to cry

And you see in everything that I try

Told me stop sleeping on all the dreams that I got

Couple seasons come by, the yard's trees in the sky

Open your eyes momma, there ain't no reason to cry

First and foremost to say the least, love you both

Even though you both be tripping on me, it's okay I know

I know you both love that I was this amazing kid

Raising up to being on the path to be amazed again

I know you both have other babies so the plate is big

But I appreciate you both for the things you did

And even though sometimes I feel like y'all ain't making sense

I deal with it 'cause I know you keep it wavy still

I'm tryna make it rich, and bring in eighty mil

A grown man now, pouting like a baby still

I know y'all hate the grills, but I love 'em though

Y'all irritate me still, but I love you though

Through the wind, with either of you, I'm comfortable

Said through the wind, with either of you, I'm comfortable

Through the pain, with either of you, I'm comfortable

Said through the pain, with either of you, I'm comfortable
