Wish I could holla an' you physically listen, ma picture me shitting
Came far from chopping crack in the kitchen
Hated when I was a thug, couldnt understand it
Put me through school, swore soon Id be in a position to ruleLook at me now, your only child breathing through you
For you, by you, the science of FUBU, ill creation
Im still laying for that day I wake up
Out of this dream, see you kinetically move, a seventies jewelA stars born, in the form of man, deep like Elijah
Mommys only prophet speaking the logic
Now momma love said if I ever get rich
And you not alive, watch for the snakes, 'cause they got to surviveDont acknowledge the lies, or the gossip
Stay true to yourself
And dont do what your pops did
I love you mommy foreverLove your moms, hate the streets
Ill protect you from fears, always be here
Love your moms, hate the streets
Ill protect you from fears, always be hereTo the streets of my house someone not a nine, through hard times
Moms was so strong you one of my heart's pride
And you told me I would shine in time, never win, but you know
Through you I spit and make the whole globe glowI zone on all the things you ever did for me, my grief as a kid
Easing my pain, lifting my name, predicting Ill see fame
Change that bond thats never broken
You my heart for life, put ice on the surface of your soul glowingTo my moms straight royal, look at your boy now
Taught me the young, in turn I spoil you now
Dont even worry Im a hold you down not far from now
When you see me and the way youve been
Just since my born day, and you proudNo matter what, so Im touched when I spit it this way
I pray youll be smiling for the rest of your days around
Always at my best, and thats 'cause of you
Always calm and watch you raise me to be top notchLove your moms, hate the streets
Ill protect you from fears, always be here
Love your moms, hate the streets
Ill protect you from fears, always be hereYo Im a keep this gangsta, and still be G
My moms is for my seeds, my moms for me
Always been by my side, when I needed her most
When I was locked in a cell, holding her closeVisit after visit, she will always be there
My father would never cry, wouldn't shed one tear
My mother exact opposite, by all means
And it would hurt, when she see me walking in state greensI be like ma chill, 'cause its all good
In just two more years Ill be back in the hood
My father, he got sick, my mother couldnt take it
She called me the night he died, said he ain't make itAll hysterical, phone dropped off the dresser
Ma you calm down, you got high blood pressure
See I understand that I got to be the man
And take care of my wife, kids, and the fam, specially you maLove your moms, hate the streets
Ill protect you from fears, always be here
Love your moms, hate the streets
Ill protect you from fears, always be hereMama love, old earth for what its worth
Sorry for all the times that I made you hurt
I know it was hard work, mother of three
Who would of thought your baby be running the street crazily?You told me to stick to the dean, I lusted the cream
57 Fav queens with cracks in my jeans
Im going nowhere fast, thats what you said
Didnt want to lose me to jail over some quick bread, or end up deadEyes bloodshed, watching your tears shed
Damn a nigga making his bed
About to lie in, I want to change, but I aint trying
It aint justifying, my grand pops dyingMoms, Im sorry for the pain, theres sunshine after the rain
My past shame its hard to explain
Can I make you happy? I love to see you smile
For your life while, ma its our turn nowLove your moms hate the streets
Ill protect you from fears, always be here
Love your moms hate the streets
Ill protect you from fears, always be here
Love your moms hate the streets
Ill protect you from fears, always be hereLove your moms and hate the streets
Love your moms and hate the heat
Love your moms while she resting in peace
Love your moms while she still here
Hug your moms when she shedding a tear
Protect your moms from her worst fears
