Mama can't you see
Mama cant you see?
All I want is for you to understand me
As bad as a little kid wanting candy
In this lifetime you’ve just got to see
That I’m going to do my best and make money
I may even start to act
Mama cant you see
I have this life in tact
I’m not gonna go and get a desk job
Cause then I’d be forced to join the mob
Meaning I'm gonna go crazy
And I'm just gonna get lazy
Mama cant you see
I'm getting off my ass
Trying to make some quick cash
So why won’t you leave me be
Instead of keeping me away from society
Which will cause me to start rioting
Inside my head
Thinking it’d be better off to be dead
But the good lord granted me with this amazing life
And I would never end it due to strife
Mama can’t you see
I'm smart but not a scholar
But in this lifetime I will get my dollar
