My momma called tell me they done turned the gas off
And I just spent 500 in the shopping mall
So I can look good for ya'll
Guess I gotta take this mask off
Cause everything ain't picture perfect
She 60 now and she still workin'
These tears jerkin' and it's painful I can't help
I feel stingy everytime I treat myself so at times
This fun rap is really work for me
And at times it's got me thinkin' what it's really worth to me
The school route seemed easier
That probably would have end up pleasin' her
Cause these words ain't reachin' her
And they damn sure not feedin' her
She happy that I'm happy that's what a mother supposed to say right well actually
That be the pride tellin' her son do no wrong
If music is his passion she gone rep for'em
Proud mother she is show me off to her friends
While I'm tryna show off to mine in a new benz
So who am I really tryna impress lately
This persona I walk with got me lookin' all crazy
I haven't spoke to my sister in three years
I wonder if she even cares
And if this song she would even hear
It hurts we don't communicate
I got kids you ain't see they face
Kylee's beautiful Cam too
And we all want to tell you we love you
So feel free to call next time you in town pass through
No hard feelings I don't hate you
Growin' up you were the only sibling I knew
You taught me a lot believe that
Our conversations on music I miss that
You was the first to introduce me to Dilla
Until this day I ain't never heard nobody real'a
Don't know why our lives went our seperate ways
I speak to mommy about it and all she say
You know your sister got her ways
I'm happy to hear your fashion thing pickin' up
You just moved and you tryna straighten Braxton up
I know it's gotta be hard for a single mother
But always know you can count on your little brother
But don't let the ills of the world pull you under
It takes Patience to be great that's why momma gave you that name
And if you wonder I just had to get this off my chest
I couldn't let more time pass without wishin' you the best
Oh yeah
