Shigga Shay - Mama Told Me songtekst
Je score:
[Intro:] This one goes out, to all the moms in the world I consider them warriors Chea! [Hook:] My mama told me, when I was young, She'd sit beside me, 'my only son... ' And listen closely... to what I say And if you do this... it'll help you, some sunny day [Verse:] When I was young, only you believed in my dreams When they told me I wasn't the one, you still gave me self-esteem I remember everything you said When I was down with a fever, layin cold on the bed I told you I was gonna represent Singapore And now you holdin' down every single one of my metaphors I cursed, I fought, I lied and cried And if it wasn't for you, I probably woulda died You single handedly turned me from trash to a pearl A lady responsible for bringing me into the world You were always there, when hope was forlorn A day after 9/11 a star was born You knew I was special so you told me to do it Knewing that I was much more than marketed music I would never forget what you've done for me Cause without you, I wouldn't have a soul to breathe [Hook:] Oh take your time... don't learn too fast... Troubles will come... and they will past... You find a woman... and you'll find love... And don't forget there is a someone... up above [Verse:] Whenever I fell you were always there to catch me Fillin' my heart with love so it's never empty The love you've given can't be described with a pen I wouldn't mind livin life as your child again You still stayed when I refused to even listen There were days you worked late just to pay tuition But my intuition told me you had a mission You wrote me a bright future now I have a vision Of the world in my palms, ya baby boy's all grown Hugged me with open arms when I was all alone There was a time I did real bad in school With your love and support I know I gotta make it Makin you proud cause I'm what you created If I get signed I ma get you a home I made this song cause I'm more comfortable speakin on tha microphone [Hook:] And get your lust, from a rich man's gold... All that you need now... is in your soul... And you can do this... if you try... All that I want from you my son... is to be satisfied! And be a simple... kind of man... and be something... You love and understand... let it be a simple... kind of man... Oh won't you do this all... if you can... [Verse:] Call me the human torch my rhymes on fire My moms a warrior and pops is a cancer survivor Didn't mind when 'I kissed a girl like 'Katy Perry' Cause they say that I'm sweeter than Ben & Jerry's You must be proud of the product you created I work so hard yet they say I'm overrated Don't tell me but show that's what mama told me Hold me closely like a book then carefully unfold me Whatever yo momma say you gotta pay attention Cause her words probaby pay a king's ransom If my hand is a gun, I got it cocked like Will Smith(Hancock) I'm ma use it to protect even if my bones shift I ain't gon follow my dreams I ma lead them with glory My momma led a life you could read in a story I owe you so much that I can't repay Without you there wouldn't be no ShiGGa Shay! [Hook:] Oh don't you worry... you'll find yourself... Follow your heart... and nothing else... And you can do this... oh yeah... If you try... All that I want from you my son... is to be satisfied! And be a simple... kind of man... and be something... You love and understand... let it be a simple... be a simpleman... Oh won't you do this all... if you can... {No one can scold me, that's what Mama Told me} {Don't tell me but show me, that's what Mama Told me}
