Momma Lyrics

Damn, this is for all my women

That been going through the struggle

On welfare, living the rough life



It's gon' be alright

That's right

This is how we gon'

That's right



This is how we gon' do it

I want you to explain your story

I'ma tell you mine

Tell 'em



Hustlin', strivin', strugglin' survivin'

Momma, momma

Never realizing, that you were a diamond

Momma, momma



Through the sun or the rain, through the pain

I'ma hold you down, hold you down

Through the good, or the bad times, I got love for you

The stress and the heart aches, so much love for you, yeah



Yo, it's not ya momma fault, it's ya fathers fault

It's your fathers fault your mother is an alcoholic

Confusin' the brain from the booze and the pain

And plus he cheated on her, beated on her, smack dead in the rain



She lost her first child in 74

And that lead to nervous breakdowns bacardi dark she downin' it raw

She can't take it, she constantly cryin', fallin' down on her knees



Like help me, Lord, please, I'm ready to leave

All she needed was somebody to rub her feet

Give her a nice hug and rescue her from off these streets, c'mon



Hustlin', strivin', strugglin' survivin'

Momma, momma

Never realizing, that you were a diamond

Momma, momma



Through the sun or the rain, through the pain

I'ma hold you down, hold you down

Through the good, or the bad times, I got love for you

The stress and the heart aches, so much love for you, yeah



I been sent by an angel to snatch you up

Take you way above the clouds and back you up

At night, you can lay in my arms feel the heart beatin'

Don status in the sheets, I'm keepin' you warm



Ain't no nigga gone do what I do

I'ma take care of you and ya kids

Take the bent and go handle ya biz

The bills is paid,the cable back on

I'm not ashamed to sport you

Floss you or gloss you out

Fat, skinny out of shape I'll dior you out

Through the good, or the bad times, I got love for you

The stress and the heart aches, so much love for you, yeah



In the hood there's a struggle, my girl is in trouble

She lackin' guidance in the mind, she's blinded and puzzled

Her pops never showed her the ropes

Her moms raised mad kids on her own

She never had a strong man in her home



Nothing in this life, sun don't always shine

But it can't rain all the time

(Everything's gonna be alright)



Somebody sees your pain

You will never hurt again

I see you momma, yeah

I see you momma



You can cry yours eyes

(Cry your eyes)

It will be alright

(It will be alright)



Hustlin', strivin', strugglin' survivin'

Momma, momma

Never realizing, that you were a diamond

Momma, momma



Through the sun or the rain, through the pain

I'ma hold you down, hold you down

Through the good, or the bad times, I got love for you

The stress and the heart aches, so much love for you, yeah



Through the good or the bad times

Through the stress and the heart ache
