But i luv her till death do us part
 Though she divorced my pop the hard way
 Back in nineteen "yassey" for the past sixteen years
 I took on the responsibility of daddy...
 Ma ol' burd... puttin a real buzz in my ear  makin sho' it marinate
 And not go out the other ear
 Guess who? stood beside me when y'all wouldn't force fed when I
 Couldn't lift a spoon to my skull
 God is good, God is kind mimmicin' her taught me how to say mine ...
 Grace improvised wit bakin' soda when it wasn't no toothpaste
 Now what that went with?? my ol' burd cried tears of joy
 When she heard I wasn't gon' serve time for possession
 Of the "sawed off" runnin' out of spurs
 When I came home blowed and couldn't find the key hole, guess who
 Unlocked the doors, my Ol' burd puttin' my hairs out
 I better eat before you bug me to death
 Shut-up you old ungrateful ass nigga, she trying to help yo' ass...
 I wasn't ready to eat yet but I enjoyed the dinner she said, "I'm glad"
 Slid down my esophagus wit ease, even though she have this skin disease,
 That won't allow me to gain weight do my own eyes deceive me
 Guess who tuck me in before I started drivin this Benz
 Again & again, told me not to and when I did...
 Guess who beat the dog shit outta me kid
 My Moma didn't play, shiiit, I had to pick the switches...
 You guess who!!!

 My Moma, destination unknown, went out on her own
 She was barely even grown and became my Moma
 I never knew my dad, so even when the times got bad
 I was glad cause I had my Moma
 For so long she had to be strong
 I know at certain times she was wrong
 But she still my Moma, it still amazes me
 The Lord had to help her raise me judging from the way I used to be


 My Moma, the biggest player that I know I love her so
 Hell everything I got I owe to my Moma
 Thank you for caring, thank you for sharing yo' luv
 I guess that was yo' way of preparing
 Yo' son to be the one and not the two
 To make you and my daddy's dream come true
 But what a surprise a car wreck left you paralyzed
 The sheet was pulled over yo' eyes when the doctor advised
 The family that you might not ever talk again
 But you talkin' so I know that you gon' walk again
 But take yo time, guess who's the inspiration for the rhyme... My Moma

 Who was tha first to hold you in some arms
 Tha first to change your diaper when your stomach wasn't calm
 Your Moma, wit that drama brought you into this world
 From a world of down under
 I wonder now she know when I was lying, when I was telling the truth
 With the proof she would explain how I've been skipping school
 With that boys putting wholes on my back with the same belt
 Around my waist that held my panst up
 Takin' back only got you closer to Southern Bell
 Got your forehead swell
 I swear she knew when it was real or when it was fake like Clampetts
 With dreads and if I couldn't handle a situation then I fled
 Behind closed doors I froze, in Garnett holes I rose
 Who that hell got my bond
 Standing in front of that two-inch glass
 A woman ready to hand the cash over for her son...
 My Mama!!
 Sometimes we get it on, I know at times I'm wrong
 Lookin' into my eyes just to let me know she tried is enough for me
 I'm callin' a truce it seems we more like brother and sister
 Even though she pay the bills wit the mister
 Brought me home in '72 and gave me all she had
 Cause I was left at birth she knew it could work
 Since she gave me the first chance my song and dance
 Pearl, my world, what would I do without her spark
 Probably be on the street wit nothin' to eat but I got a happy home
 Ever since my first day it's heaven sent now I know
 What it's meant when I say
 I appreciate what you've done and what you do your only son...
 Guess who???

 The only one that cares for real and really understands how I feel
 Help me over come my fears and never left me through the years
 So I dedicate this song for you, for all that you brought me through
 I know there will never be another that will love me like my Mother
