Chorus
Mama dearest cause you was always there for me.
I hope you hear this cause you the one that's helpin' me breathe.
I hope you know, at time's i was depending on you cause you my mama and i will always love you.
(j-raw verse 1:)
Cause you was there for me when the times were rough, when everything fell apart yo my mama stood tough.
And i know she didn't have the money and all, but check this out she still manage to raise me raw.
And for that i got to keep my love for my mama real, i got to tell her the deal yo mama dearest i know how you feel.
About the times gone by when i refused your love, i was a knuckle head trying to find a way to come up.
And i apologize for the things i did in the past, mama dearest my love for you is gonna last.
Forever and a day you will stay in the depths of my heart, so mama smile when your song hits the rap charts.
And i pray that the lord will bring you joy and not pain, and even through the rain, mama don't you ever change, but even if you do, yo mama dearest i will always love you.
Chorus
Mama dearest cause you was always there for me.
I hope you hear this cause you the one that's helpin' me breathe.
I hope you know, at time's i was depending on you cause you my mama and i will always love you.
(swift verse 2:)
This is goin' out to the first woman that was in my life, its my mama and she the one who raised me right.
I'm given thanks and praise and mama your do, cuz i shutter to think where my life would be with out you.
Growin' up in your care so many memories, with my sister and brothas, you still had time for me.
Never to busy to spend some time, to invest in your kids the lessons of life.
And right now i'm taken time just to let you know, that you played a major role in how this man has grown.
Smoothin' out the rough edges into a polished stone, till i could make it on my own.
And now i'm on a mission to fulfill my dreams, to influence the world with the love you've shown me.
So as the days go by know things will always change, but always know this my love for you remains.
Chorus
Mama dearest cause you was always there for me.
I hope you hear this cause you the one that's helpin' me breathe.
I hope you know, at time's i was depending on you cause you my mama and i will always love you.
