Letter 2 Mama by Yung Smoody Lyrics
[Intro]
I'm sayin' my mama down for me, ya heard me
That's the only lady I can trust
My mama looked me in the eyes and said
"Baby, you stay in these streets, you gonna die, straight up"
I used to tote a ball but now I tote a tool
She said she pray that she don't see me on the news
She don't think that I love my life, but Ma, I do
And since a jit, I used to always act a fool
[Hook]
She asked me why I act so hood, I say why?
Said I'ma leave the streets alone, but I lied
Why you poppin' percocets, it's a vibe
Gotta do away with the stress, so I'm high
She laid her head on my shoulder and she cried
She told me leave the streets alone or I'ma die
I know she meant it, I could see it in her eyes
That if they kill me, it's gon' be a homicide, woah (ahh, ahh)
She laid her head on my shoulder and she cried
She told me leave the streets alone or I'ma die, woah (ahh, ahh)
I know she meant it, I could see it in her eyes
That if they kill me, it's gon' be a homicide, woah
[Verse]
I told my mom I'm in the booth, ain't in them streets no more
No more phone calls that's gon' wake you out ya sleep no more
Ya baby da Professor, I ain't out here in no beef no more
Now I dropped the shit that all these people they be fiendin' for
She told me, long as she 'round, she gon' ride
I told my mama wipe them tears from her eyes
She always prayin' for her baby, I'ma slide
Ain't nothin' changed 'cause since a child, I been wild, woah
Rather be judged by twelve than carried by six
Stick with my rhymes and stay on my shit
Stay on my grind and stay out the mix
I want them diamonds all on my wrist
Say if I stay up out this shit then I'm gon' blow
And Ma I try, but in this city, I don't know
[Hook]
She asked me why I act so hood, I say why?
Said I'ma leave the streets alone, but I lied
Why you poppin' percocets, it's a vibe
Gotta do away with the stress, so I'm high
She laid her head on my shoulder and she cried
She told me leave the streets alone or I'ma die
I know she meant it, I could see it in her eyes
That if they kill me, it's gon' be a homicide, woah (ahh, ahh)
She laid her head on my shoulder and she cried
She told me leave the streets alone or I'ma die, woah (ahh, ahh)
I know she meant it, I could see it in her eyes
