If mama wouldn've told me there be hatin ass niggas
that be caught up in they feelings
while they counting your fingers
If mama would've told me there would be plotting ass hoes
that be smiling in yo face while they stealing your doe
If mama would've told me there be backstabbing friends when you can't do nothing for them they be gone with the wind.
If mama would've tole me
If mama would've told me
If mama would've told me not to trust these niggas
then i wouldn't started wilding out and fucking with these bitches
i learned you can't call a stripper your bestfriend
we was working at platinum city
i was giving you my ends
had to pay my mama rent
had to take care of my shit
and i was getting used by these hoes and didn't realize it.
First fell in love when i was only sixteen
but back then i didn't know
didn't know what it mean
then i fell in love with the money
i was all about my business
i was young and wanting attention
mama said slow down
i wouldn't listen
one thing she said
"don't open your legs to every guy you meet, respect is everything."
but i learned the hard way
even though mama warned me
mistakes turned into lessons that i learned along the journey
and I've walked for some miles but i hold my head proud
because mama always told me to kill them with a smile.
If mama wouldn've told me there be hatin ass niggas
that be caught up in they feelings
while they counting your fingers
(If mama would've told me)
If mama would've told me there would be plotting ass hoes
(If mama would've told me)
that be smiling in yo face while they stealing your doe
(If mama would've told me)
If mama would've told me there be backstabbing friends when you can't do nothing for them they be gone with the wind.
If mama would've tole me
(If mama would've told me)
No wonder why my attitude is fuck all y'all
and all y'all can kiss my ass
even though we related, do i trust y'all nah
y'all just here to try and get my cash
but i ain't having none of that bullshit
woman you better believe
ain't trying to hear nothing you trying to say
i think it's just better if you would just leave
i'm sick and tired of being sick and tired
taking care of all y'all
roaching off me all month
when the first get here
now where all y'all
if you think i don't know what you told so and so about me
man i'm so up it don't even register when y'all be trying to doubt me
finally i found me
i was never looking for you bitch
if i would've known back then
what i know right now.
i would've had my on plane on four right now
i would've helped myself instead helping others
i would've been in a better position
thankful to be a millionaire
but i could've been a billionaire
looking at my life just wishing
i would've did it different
but i'm not mad though
I got a bag hoe and it's large
It don't mean nothing
but it still feel good to see
all of the vehicles in my garage
Kill these hoes
mama said to
kill these hoes
(ohh, ohh, oh)
If mama wouldn've told me there be (hatin ass niggas) hatin ass niggas
that be caught up in they feelings (Fronting ass bitches)
while they counting your fingers
If mama would've told me there would be plotting ass hoes
that be smiling in yo face while they stealing your doe (I don't fuck with y'all)
If mama would've told me there be backstabbing friends when you can't do nothing for them they be gone with the wind.
If mama would've tole me
If mama would've told me
