LET MAMA KNOW

*It wasn't her fault as far as I know I made it not alive out her womb Not the drugs, not her liquor,No I was just destined for my tomb It wasn't her choice I took this route Tell her train of depression not to hoot It wasn't her making to be that small She's a special mama, among them all It couldn't be father's fault, It's fate Yes, let her not love the man with hate I know I should have been her first But she shouldn't think she's cursed Tell her to give motherhood another try I know she thinks it was a 9 months' lie Wipe her tears please, don't let her cry It wasn't her making for me to die Steal her sorrow, I'll pay the fine Do all you can to see she's fine She can have another to wear & dine In all treasures she says were mine Give my mama joy, God set her free You know she's barely twenty three I bleed seeing how bad she's broken Yes, give her a child, another token*

Was just trying to do something different

It's a dedication to all mothers and those thinking their problems are the worst

Just be strong, somehow somewhere life will right the wrong
