Plies - Momma Lyrics

Ay Homiee
Sometimes I just sit back and think homiee
What my life woulda really
Been like if it wasn't for my momma

Probally be dead or in a jam...
Probally be sittin off in a pin
I wouldn't be strong as I am and life I wouldn't understand
Probally be dead or in a jam...
Probally be sittin off in a pin
I wouldn't be strong as I am and life I wouldn't understand

Daddy left and momma stayed
And she raised ha boys showed us how to survive
When times get hard hustle when you want the thingsx you can't afford
Heres something to many times then don't ignore it without the bad the good you could'ntenjoy it
Loyalty when it's broke you can't restore it
Problems is apart of life that you can't avoid
Mama said in life everything can't be important she kept it simple when she said life was all about choices
Too many friends mama said equals too many voices in life you gotta learn how to walk before you can ride horses I guess I wouldn't be me
If mama got an abortion

Probally be dead or in a jam...
Probally be sittin off in a pin
I wouldn't be strong as I am and life I wouldn't understand
Probally be dead or in a jam...
Probally be sittin off in a pin
I wouldn't be strong as I am and life I wouldn't understand

I neva loved a woman
As much as I love my girl she neva showered me with gifts she showed me the world she taught me things about life
More valuable that pearls I think my daddy for haulin a... cause it made us more sterle
My momma slogan you ain't grown till ya payin ya own billsx a real man love his family and he work and he live some things momma use to say I can hear in my ears
She told me don't call em ya friend till ya knoe who they is and if you hurt someone you love you wipe away they tears
You lookin for love in these streets this ain't where it is and people remember you in life off the things you did your heart go always be judged
Off the things you give she said if you got em betta neva show the world your fears this world don't wanna see you happy they'd rather see you in tears
She said in mins you, you can destroy what you built in
Years she told me whateva you do die smart and real

Probally be dead or in a jam...
Probally be sittin off in a pin
I wouldn't be strong as I am and life I wouldn't understand
Probally be dead or in a jam...
Probally be sittin off in a pin
I wouldn't be strong as I am and life I wouldn't understand

She ain't have time to spend with us
Cause she had three jobs my brotha tried to help us out so he went out and he rob
To watch my daddy make you cry it hurt me in my heart the only way I think you madee it you beleived in God
I needed collateral on my bonds so you put up ya
House the only reason you did it cause you lovee ya child

And when thee streetsx tried to break me
You made me smilee you
Loved both of us
The same regardless how wild
I'm grown now but I still won't curse in ya house
My brother kids
You treat em all
Just like ya child when lost granny guess what you held us down
Between me and bro we hopee we made you proud

Probally be dead or in a jam...
Probally be sittin off in a pin
I wouldn't be strong as I am and life I wouldn't understand
Probally be dead or in a jam...
Probally be sittin off in a pin
I wouldn't be strong as I am and life I wouldn't understand
