This is a another story I wrote they are not real stories)
Mama always told me to grow up and be a man
but now that I'm grown apart of my life I just don't understand
Mama always told me to do what's right
to take up for myself when ever it came down to a fight
She always told me that I needed to open up my ears and hear
because one day when I need her she just might not be near
She always told me to look inside of myself and to never depend on no one else
She always told me to study hard and if she's not here then just call on the lord
Mama always was there whenever I needed a friend but one day I knew mamas life was about to end
Mama was getting old and her head was getting cold
I always thought she would be with me forever
but now I see it was either now or never
Mama never paid any attention to the devil
she told me to never amount to his level
But when god took mama he took me too
cause now I'm surrounded by evil for the things that I do
I don't believe in love instead I'm out in the streets selling drugs
Mama told me it would happen
she said i would grow up and be just like my daddy
she told me to make a family so i could have a mouth to feed
but instead I was out on the corner selling weed
trying to make money and just fuck plain ol' any honey
My pockets were fat and plus I drove a new cadillac
But then I started thinkin' that the only thing I was doing in the streets was slanggin'
I was driving home one night and I was thinking what would happen if I stopped But before I could answer there was this cop
I ended up going to jail but got off on a one-thousand dollar bail
I had this strange dream that I was digging my own grave and I knew that's where I was headed if I didn't get saved
I decided to turn my life around but still mama's gone and i'm left here all alone
I should have listened to what mama said but now it's too late cause mama is dead.
