Like My Mama

[Verse 1: MIKE]

If you really didn't need it, I denied it

Couldn’t see you niggas sleeping, I was grinding

Had the crib in Piccadilly, move my mind mint

Man, I say you niggas silly, different timing

If there's a nigga fucking with me, I should drop dead

I remember back in Philly, eating ramen

My head be clouded in the city, had to process

They wanna see me in the city with the mob ment'

Had me counting every penny, had to cop less

I stay around, these niggas envy, I’m the proudest

Shout to where my brother living, he an outlet

My success just make ‘em livid ‘cause they doubted

[Chorus: MIKE]

My papa hate to see me sitting, see me slouching

Like my mama, in my feelings, I be drowning

I be drowning, see me sitting, see me slouching

Like my mama, in my feelings, I be drowning

[Verse 2: Navy Blue]

I be drowning, yeah, yeah

All this drama never sit straight with me

When I'm alone, know my sister miss me

All I've known was the scars that I've hidden

Ten days strong, now I'm lost, keep wishing

Now I'm appalled ‘cause my pop was in prison

Picking up my armor, then I march to the rhythm

Among the trees, buried dreams, found wisdom

Start my day, give thanks for my newfound vision

Blame it on the world, but my girl said I'm tripping

Son of Ògún, caught in this mysticism

It was all in the words and the cards that were dealt

When the car hit the curb, brother ain't around

Papa in the wall, Michael in the ground

My father pray Ase, on my wrist is green and brown

Listen hear the sound, my brothers in a struggle

Glad we took a different route, mama made a home

Father in a different house, we was in a drought

Had to make it work, had to make it work

When my brother passed, then came the hurt

Then came the hurt, then came the-

Had to make it work, had to make it work

Then came the hurt, then came the hurt

Then came the hurt, and then came the hurt

Yeah, then came the hurt

[Outro]

Something for your mind, your body, and your soul

It’s the power to arouse curiosity

The purpose

The goal which one acts on

A journey of force

Hot like the sun, and wet like-
