Ddiltz Productions - Mama Told Me (feat. PG Brown & 2Music)

Mama told me life is gonna do what it do yeah
Mama told me life is gonna do what it do yeah
If I could take back every word I didn't mean
And take a lil minute wipe my slate clean
Prayers to the sky with my knees on the ground
Just asking for the Lord to forgive me
Mama told me gotta watch my back
Cus my friends won't always be friends
Gotta cut loose ends
Gotta get out the mud yeah
You know you gotta make them M's
Mama said keep ya guard up but it seem like I would never listen
I ended up in prison
Cause my pops done crossed me
So much for the love of a Christian
2/20/97
My mother gave birth to a legend
You put this beat in my heart, mama
And I put that heart in these records
3 in the morning I'm still on my grind
Thinking about you and I'm thinking bout time
This life pasts you fast when you work to survive
I get kinda stressed when I think about life
Then I remember what you said
When I was younger in my bed
The sky's the limit in my head
Imma make you proud that's what I said
Mama told me life is gonna do what it do so Imma do what I do yeah
Mama told me life is gonna do what it do so Imma do what I'm meant to do
Mama told me life is gonna do what it do yeah
Stress is life yeah cut you like a knife yeah
Mama told me life is gonna do what it do yeah
Get out your bubble and learn from your struggle
Mama told me life is gonna do what it do yeah
Stress is life yeah cut you like a knife yeah
Mama told me life is gonna do what it do yeah
Get out your bubble and learn from your struggle
Mama taught me a lot about life huh
Guess I had to learn myself
Running thru the streets with a bad and a gat Just tryna get a knotch on my belt
Look 2 thought he knew it all
Turns out I ain't know bout shit
Wouldn't had to deal with that hurt If I listened to the advice I get no shit
Momma ain't no about fake love
I was lost in the streets going awol
Learned from street no days off with pounds of the green it's a cake walk
Look then I got raided mama impatient Im finding way just keep on praying
Look Mama said the streets was gon take me I said ma the streets done made me
Who I am I'm still your baby she said 2 stay away from that crazy shit and get up off your ass
I ain't teach you all that lazy shit
Said ma it is what it is she said naw it's what u make of it
And that shit rang true I ain't realize in my youth but still i
Had to learn my way yea 2 ways you know me And that kool aid
Look Mama said stay dry but the drip still oozing
She said motive is key gotta keep on moving gotta find yourself look 2 don't lose it
Chase your dream even battered and bruised
And never give up when you win they losin'
Mama told me life is gonna do what it do yeah
Stress is life yeah cut you like a knife yeah
Mama told me life is gonna do what it do yeah
Get out your bubble and learn from your struggle
Mama told me life is gonna do what it do yeah
Stress is life yeah cut you like a knife yeah
Mama told me life is gonna do what it do yeah
Get out your bubble and learn from your struggle
