Mama's Stength (feat. Scotty Music) Video (MV)

If it wasn't for my OG
Be somewhere dead or locked in a cage
If it wasn't for all the attention she paid
I grew up and I moved a lot
Cause moms didn't have much
But every house felt like home
As long as we had us
We got everywhere we needed
As long as we had bus
Moms would clean floors to make sure that we had stuff
And life wasn't easy and we had it hard
Me and my brother would yell bingo when we seen cars
That seemed like they were only made for stars
Or the people whose life was opposite of ours
But we work hard
And now we got cars
And kids yell bingo when they see us
Man look at Yah
I don't mean to be all mushy but I know where I come from
All praises to THE MOST HIGH that I rose above all them
Nights with no lights
Wax burns from candle lights
Summers felt like heaven when pops would bring us bikes
And moms would often cry and I didn't know what for
Later I realized it's when we said we loved dad more
For all the times you went without for us to have more
And dressed us fresh to death while you shop from the thrift store
I thank you
Cause Mary did what she had to
Could of had any mom in the world but I'm glad that we had you
If it wasn't for my OG
Ya prolly wouldn't know me
Be somewhere dead or locked in a cage
If it wasn't for all the attention she paid
If it wasn't for my OG
I would be stuck in these streets nowhere to go
My mama's prayers they brought me thru
And I know it's all because of you
For as long as I can remember you have always been there
Saying what's on your mind with lack of proper English
You would run the house
Threaten to kick us out
Call sis nem night walkers when they'd be leaving out
Play fight wit bro nem for talking bout how you speak
Grab a knife up out the drawer and threaten to cut them deep
Cause you would always say
It don't matter what you say
They know you only went to school for like two days
We love it
Awesome mother that goes without saying
And yo fried chicken was always off the chain
And to this day
This goes without fail
You still will curse us out when we don't get our mail
For all the times you'd cover for us
Thanks a lot
You were always that buffer tween us and pops
I know sometimes it feel like you don't get no love
But we all appreciate all the things that you've done
Your strength is in the love that you show us kids
And that's why you're the best second mom there is
For me no matter what
You will always get props
Cause I appreciate how much you love my pops
For real
If it wasn't for my OG
Ya prolly wouldn't know me
Be somewhere dead or locked in a cage
If it wasn't for all the attention she paid
If it wasn't for my OG
I would be stuck in these streets nowhere to go
My mama's prayers they brought me thru
And I know it's all because of you
And last but not least I got to thank my baby
For all the times that the kids would drive you crazy
You keep it together when we get lazy
Wiping walls, scrubbing floors
You do all of that daily
You do what you gotta despite how you might feel
Up at night turning off lights to save money on light bills
How you keep it together is a miracle still
Food low, here you go, making miracle meals
I honor your strength and admire your love
Cause I know your heaven sent from Messiah above
We don't show it, but hope you know it
You are appreciated
Cause you're the glue that holds us together we wouldn't make it without
You always fussing and keeping us on track
Kid's give you attitude and you only give love back
Always think of us first, and all of us love that
And never ask for nothing but occasional rubbed back
So for all the things you do like washing and cleaning rooms
Cooking and home schooling we thank you for all you do
You go above and beyond the duty of any mom
And that's why you're the greatest my baby Leah Andreas
If it wasn't for my OG
Ya prolly wouldn't know me
Be somewhere dead or locked in a cage
If it wasn't for all the attention she paid
If it wasn't for my OG
I would be stuck in these streets nowhere to go
My mama's prayers they brought me thru
And I know it's all because of you
