When I was young me and my mama had beef
Seventeen years old kicked out on the streets 17
Though back at the time I never thought I'd see her face
Ain't a woman alive that could take my mama's place
Suspended from school and scared to go home
I was a fool with the big boys
Breaking all the rules
I shed tears with my baby sister, over the years
We was poorer than the other little kids
And even though we had different daddy's
The same drama
When things went wrong we'd blame mama.
I reminisce on the stress I caused
It was hell, hugging on my mama from a jail cell
And who'd think in elementary
Hey! I see the penitentiary!
One day, running from the police
That's right mama catched me,
Put a whoop in to my backside
And even as a crack fiend, mama
You always was a black queen, mama.
I finally understand, for a woman it ain't easy
Trying to raise a man
You always was committed
A poor single mother on welfare
tell me how you did it
There's no way I can pay you back,
But the plan is to show you that I understand
You are appreciated
Dear mama
Pour out some liquor and I reminisce
Cause through the drama
I can always depend on my Mama
And when it seems that I'm hopeless
You say the words that can get me back in focus
When I was sick as a little kid
To keep me happy there's no limit to the things
You did
And all my childhood memories
Are full of all the sweet things you did for me
And even though I act crazy
I gotta thank the Lord that you made me
There are no words that can express how I feel
You never kept a secret, always stayed real
And I appreciate how you raised me
And all the extra love that you gave me
Cause when I was low you was there for me
You never left alone cause you cared for me
And I could see you come in home after work in late
You in the kitchen trying to fix us a hot plate
You just work in with the scraps you was given
And Mama made miracles every Thanksgiving
But now the road got rough, you're alone
Trying to raise two bad kids on your own
There's no way I can pay you back
But the plan is to show you that I understand
Pour out some liquor and I reminisce
Cause through the drama
I can always depend on my Mama
And when it seems that I'm hopeless
You say the words that can get me back in focus
When I was sick as a little kid
To keep me happy there's no limit to the things
You did
You are appreciated
Dear mama
You are appreciated
