Thank You Mom
Even tough I lived in the hood
My mama made everything feel so good
She did everything that she could
Even tried to do the things that a real father should
Even though I never knew my father
when I thought of him I got a lil bothered
For a boy like me life only got harder
So I had to grow up to be just a lil stronger
Mama said I would be tall
I remember when sh brought me my first basketball
When she tried to teach me
She couldn't even reach me
Maybe that's why she didn't try to beat me
Even though my daddy didn't care
I knew thru my mom that love was always there
So never did I care if he was out there looking for me
that would be to much for me to bare
I grew up strong and I in my heart I sing the livest song
I'm a man with or without it
There is no doubt that I'm about it
I'm glad that mom provided the best father figure in my life
With God by her side I grew up alright.
They say that women and men all have a choice and the best thing for them to do is follow their voice.
I'm blessed that my mother did that and also followed her heart,
This is a life that won't be wasted
