MAMA

[Verse 1]

Take a left at the red lights

In the end, we are just our choices

And I wanted to apologise

But in the end, all I had was I'm-sorrys

Blame it on the lullabies

Blame it on all the nights they sold us stories

There’s no happy ending this side

And now we're running from police lights

[Pre-Chorus]

Liquor on my breath and a chain on my neck

Getting chased by the feds whilst you play with my hair

Liquor on my breath, there's some things that I did

But don’t blame it on me

[Chorus]

Blame it on my mama

Blame it on the alcohol

Blame it on my father

There's no happy-ever after all

There's no happy-ever after all

[Verse 2]

Oh, mama, please don't cry

In the end, we are just toy soldiers

Everybody's gonna live and die

And in the end, all we have is our choices

Oh, mama, please don't cry

Life is nothing like the stories you told us

No, it's nothing like the lullabies

Now we're running from police lights

[Verse 3]

Dear mama, tonight I’m finna fly with the wind

Sick of walking around this city like a bag full of sin

From the day we first came here and every day since

They been looking at me, judge me for the skin that I’m in

Tonight, me and Kesh are both leaving town, mama

And by this time tomorrow morning, you won't see me around

I’m leaving you some money and the code to the safe

And they'll never see me cave, I'm a bird they'll never cage

[Pre-Chorus]

Liquor on my breath and a chain on my neck

Getting chased by the feds whilst you play with my hair

Liquor on my breath, there’s some things that I did

But don't blame it on me

[Chorus]

Blame it on my mama

Blame it on the alcohol

Blame it on my father

There's no happy-ever after all

There's no happy-ever after all

[Instrumental Break]

[Spoken Outro]

Life can be life at times

We fall, we rise

We rise, we fall

It's up and down

It can be really sad

But if we treat each other with the love and respect we desire

It can bring us peace and joy within

And what I'll say to the world the most is that, yeah, I'm coming

I've been in the world a very long time, but I'm actually coming this year, BERWYN

Boy, if that's not good enough, I don't know what to do because

My mind is, like, blank
