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, couldn’t understand it
Put me through school, swore soon I’d be in a position to rule
Look at me now, your only child breathing through you
For you, by you, the science of FUBU, ill creation
I’m still laying for that day I wake up
Out of this dream, see you kinetically move, a seventies jewel
A star’s born, in the form of man, deep like Elijah
Mommy’s 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 survive
Don’t acknowledge the lies, or the gossip
Stay true to yourself
And don’t do what your pop’s did
I love you mommy forever
Love your moms, hate the streets
I’ll protect you from fears, always be here
Love your moms, hate the streets
I’ll protect you from fears, always be here
To the streets of my house someone not a nine, through hard times
Mom’s 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 glow
I zone on all the things you ever did for me, my grief as a kid
Easing my pain, lifting my name, predicting I’ll see fame
Change that bond that’s never broken
You my heart for life, put ice on the surface of your soul glowing
To my moms straight royal, look at your boy now
Taught me the young, in turn I spoil you now
Don’t even worry I’m a hold you down not far from now
When you see me and the way you’ve been
Just since my born day, and you proud
No matter what, so I’m touched when I spit it this way
I pray you’ll be smiling for the rest of your days around
Always at my best, and that’s 'cause of you
Always calm and watch you raise me to be top notch
Love your moms, hate the streets
I’ll protect you from fears, always be here
Love your moms, hate the streets
I’ll protect you from fears, always be here
Yo I’m 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 close
Visit 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 greens
I be like ma chill, 'cause it’s all good
In just two more year’s I’ll be back in the hood
My father, he got sick, my mother couldn’t take it
She called me the night he died, said he ain't make it
All 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 ma
Love your moms, hate the streets
I’ll protect you from fears, always be here
Love your moms, hate the streets
I’ll protect you from fears, always be here
Mama love, old earth for what it’s 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
I’m going nowhere fast, that’s what you said
Didn’t want to lose me to jail over some quick bread, or end up dead
Eyes bloodshed, watching your tears shed
Damn a nigga making his bed
About to lie in, I want to change, but I ain’t trying
It ain’t justifying, my grand pops dying
Moms, I’m sorry for the pain, there’s sunshine after the rain
My past shame it’s hard to explain
Can I make you happy? I love to see you smile
For your life while, ma it’s our turn now
Love your moms hate the streets
I’ll protect you from fears, always be here
Love your moms hate the streets
I’ll protect you from fears, always be here
Love your moms hate the streets
I’ll protect you from fears, always be here
Love 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
