Momma Video (MV)

Momma did it all always stood tall
Thanksgiving laughing, always had a ball
In the field, she would watch us play football
And if I ever need a thing I know I could call

First off I'm sorry that I put ya life on hold
Always be there when I need you hope you never grow old
I was selling myself short, when I should've been trying
And you did the same, so when I do it you start crying
Not lying
You sacrificed it all for ya children
What them men did in the past, it should never be forgiven
You was givin
Ya everything into them marriages
And you got nothing back, they should feel so embarrassed and,
Ashamed
I truly pray
That one day
I could give you the life,
That you want and deserve
A nice whip to serve
Only shrimp being served
You wanna eat at all the restaurants, for you I'll reserve
Remember when you used to get on us for not doing the dishes
Made us feel special on our birthdays, granted our wishes
Always made sure we ate, we could never go hungry
Had to play it smart, cause we know dad had owed you more money

Momma did it all always stood tall
Thanksgiving laughing, always had a ball
In the field, she would watch us play football
And if I ever need a thing I know I could call

The definition of child support
Driving back and forth
From school back to home, how many times like 4
We backin out now, somebody go close the garage door
We running ten minutes late, gotta take a detour
You would drop us off to waters, hit the store for some water
Can't imagine how you did it, 4 sons and a daughter
I just gotta say sorry on behalf of my father
For the times he left you helpless and it made your life harder
But you always found a way to make sure we was good
If I ever doubt myself you always told me I could
Told me what they did to Trayvon told me take off my hood
Told me that we lucky we live in a good neighborhood
Told you rapping was my dream, I always knew I was good
Then You sent me applications and you told me I should
Think you need some reparations for the times you stood
Alone in that house making sure that we was good

Momma did it all always stood tall
Thanksgiving laughing, always had a ball
In the field, she would watch us play football
And if I ever need a thing I know I could call

You a artist in your heart it's only right that I follow
Six people in the house, yeah it never was hollow
If I had a bad day, you said there's always tomorrow
If you had a bad day, I would always feel sorrow
Big brother growing up, now it's the time I do the same
If I set a bad example, then my siblings do the same
Still remember when you said the definition of my name
So I gotta shine bright, like a hot summer day
Remember summer '14 we was sweatin every day
Thinkin if he gon come back nope not today
Still amazing what you do with a brush and some paint
Just know this is your canvas you could paint it any way
That you want
And if you want
Imma take you to the beach looking right at the sea
Ain't a cloud in the sky, not as far you could see
Always said you want a house by the water by the water by the see
It's a beautiful view, I'm just glad that you could see

Momma did it all always stood tall
Thanksgiving laughing, always had a ball
In the field, she would watch us play football
And if I ever need a thing I know I could call
