Mama

Mama wasnt gonna raise no fool,

 Mama wanted her baby girl

to develops In to a pretty young lady

and then flourish into a beautiful woman.
 

Because mama wasn't gonna let her baby girl

run 'round the streets chasin those boys.

Instead Mama made her baby girl learn her manners

where she had to finish her food with proper utensils,

and had to ask to be excused from the table when finished...

 Manners where she wasn't able to talk unless spoken to...

and manners where she had to say 'excuse me' when interrupting

an adult conversation.

 

 

Mama made sure to dressed her baby girl

in pretty flower dresses that made her rare

but pretty green eyes stand out.

Mama had her in cute kitten heels

and taught her how to walk straight with her head held high.

 

Mama made sure that her baby girl was loved

and that she loved herself..

Mama taught her not to depend on no man

and to fend for herself.

 

 

 Mama made sure her baby girl's only relationship

was the one with their Heavenly Father

and that her favorite place would be the church

in which she was baptized

and worshiped their lord their savior..

Mama made sure her favorite book

was the bible in which she knows the verse

like the boys would know rap lyrics..

 

 Mama made sure her baby girl was well prepare for school

and her future...

Because mama wasn't gonna raise no fool!
