Mama Said by King Joel Lyrics

Intro:

Yeah i Ran off on my haters
Haha
Meditated on my dreams, woke up & decided to make em real
I Left home, my woes & journeyed out to a land unknown
I thought I'd never see my friends, again

Kingggggg

Somebody do a mic check real quick cos i'm bout to kill this beat
I'm talking y'all on a journey
A little insight before I made it
Revelation
I didn't realize how far I'd come until mama said
She said "son it's your moment"
Right


Verse:
I took a long minute just to count my blessings
My Diamonds dancing they ain't got no mercy
Its been long coming, I was praying for it
Yeah I told the Lord that I'll be ready for it

Used to hustle for some foampsites
Now A nigga steady making bank deposits
Niggas laughed when I was dead broke
But now I'm making Millions & I stay woke

I Rose to the top I ain't going under
All my haters are like 6 feet under
I don't see no problems bitch I'm Stevie wonder
Now I'm getting bitches like a Casanova

Here's my story Mehn I been through hell
Phony niggas wouldn't wish me well
Local stations wouldn't play my songs
Got me wondering what these niggas on

Like how u gonna fight the King's ascension
It's popping pills to fight the Great Depression
Like painting murals on a fake wall
Or making horrors movies to a love song

Bitch I got more tunes than a xylophone
More weight than the biggest boss
More bass than a future song
& I'm the sole author of your favorite songs
Check my blueprint, nigga I ain't Jay
But I'm just tryna stay forever young
Now just take a picture on you camera phone
So we can make this fucking moment last for long

Self made yah I made it big
I know God's watching & likes what he sees
Elision Records, mehn this is King
Can't nobody drop me I'm the fucking label


Hook:

She said
It's my moment
& I like this
Yeah
4x

(mama said its my moment
I believe it. i love it
I been hustling. i been grinding, & now i finally made it
Never let nobody stop you from your dreams or your goals
All you gotta do is believe and trust yourself
My mama always had faith in me
& now i finally made it. yeah)




Verse 2:

From the basement to a headliner
From making wishes to an Empire
Went from fake diamonds to a thousand karats
& From taking loans to a bankroll

Check Now out I'm front row
So just Stay tuned to the King's show
I'm Putting haters on their high hopes
They keep coming for me but I won't fall

Nah
Bitch I'm a god
Bitch I'm a boss
Yeah I'm the one like the chosen one
Bitch I'm a don like am corleone
Floating round like an astronaut 👩‍🚀

I rep Atlanta that ain't where I'm from
Castin spells on bitches like im dumbledore
Used to sleep out on public floors but
Now my whips open like double doors

I been running through these cities with my eyes closed
Some shots of henny & hypnotic got my blood flowing
I'm making Bitches put their niggas on a side note
Bet I can make Mariah hit a brand new high note

Yeah

Much love to the south side
North side gave me mad vibes
East Atlanta grew up in Decatur
West side I'm from Naija

If you ain't know it I'm from Africa
Foreign Nigga in America
Life is all about taking risks
I took my chances here & i made it big


Outro:

I couldn't tell you everything that I wanted to in a short amount of time

I've seen a lot. Been through a lot

& I made it regardless but it ain't over cos life ain't never smooth & shit keeps popping

I Seen Friends turned foes but that's their woe. & I'm just here to let this niggas know

The King is here to stay, I ain't going nowhere

It's my moment. The moment of reign, you can't contend cos I'm God ordained, so kiss the ring

I'm surrounded by real niggas. Real friends. Family & angels

I'm never gon fall nigga I'm good for life

I never saw my old friends but i made some new friends again

I Love you momma
