Drai East - Mama (True Story) Lyrics

Back in the days I was a young man oooooo I was so damn wild
Coming home late, steady causing drama, you say boy you ya daddies child
Tell me why you believed in me, Late night prayers got down on your knees
Pray to god that im gonna come around, but I seem to always let you down, ohhhhhh
In and out of the cell because Im throwing rocks and I never hide my hands
Skipping school give a f*ck about a grade mama I just wanna be the man
Pretty bitches calling my name
I just want the rollie with the diamond ring
If you just slow down you can be great
But you better change 'for its too late ohhhh

Mama you believed in me
Mama you believed in me ,ohhhhh
Mama you believed in me
Mama you believed in meee

Breaking the law if I got caught gotdamn itll be my strike three
You say im special and you see something in me and im tryin' but I just cant see
Throw my ass in a cell, two hots and a cot man I swear this aint for me
Ask God why give me the hand that you deal
Man I swear to God this shit done got real
Its two in the morn' I got my phone call, mama come and bail me out
You didnt hesistate you threw on your slippers
Now you speedin' down ninety five south
And I know you love unconditionally
Mama Im your prince and youre my Queen
And Im so sorry I ever caused you pain
But you know the sun shines through the rain, ohhhh

Mama you believed in me
Mama you believed in me, ohhhh
Mama you believed in me
Mama you believed in me

Crossing the street you always told me boy you better hold my hand
Now im grown gotta do it on my own mama
Turned into a real grown man, ohhhh
When I open my eyes up in the morning everyday Im thanking God for you
Can't thank you enough for what you've done
Mama Im so proud to be your son, ohhhhh
Every time you got on my ass, mama you know it really paid off
Calmed down and I got my head straight
And I done turned into a real damn boss
Made a turn around mama just like that
Mama theres no way that I can pay you back
And I know its hard when you raising a man
I just wanna show you that I understand
Dear Mama

Mama you believed in me
Mama you believed in me, ohhhh
Mama you believed in me
Mama you believed in me
