Mamma said boy don't you run
Look how far we've come
Don't forget where you're from
I didn't work work this hard
Just to let them take it from you
Give them hell give them hell
Don't run don't run don't run
Baby give em hell don't run
Don't run don't run don't run
Baby give em hell don't run
Mama need that check
Mama put it on me
Yeah I been the man
Even when I was younging
If you ain't talking bank
Then you be talking funny
Me say no comprende
Get the hell from me
Daddy need a whip
Daddy need a house
He said I gotta hold it down
When he's in the ground
Be the man of the house
You can't stop me now
They don't wanna see me
Benefit from the doubt
Mamma said boy don't you run
Look how far we've come
Don't forget where you're from
I didn't work work this hard
Just to let them take it from you
Give them hell give them hell
Don't run don't run don't run
Baby give em hell don't run
Don't run don't run don't run
Baby give em hell don't run
Hand up on my chest
Other on my money
I've always been the one
Ain’t nobody done it for me
The power is in my hands
Devil couldn’t touch me
I’d burn for my family
And go to hell stunting
Forgive me for my sins
If I don't make it out
Tell mama that I love her
Thank my dad he got us out
Got my hand on my heart
Screaming I'm the one
Look at what you've made
Yea the damage has been done
We gone shout to the end woo
We don't need your help
We don't want your hand
We just we just wanna end this war
For better not for worse
For better not for worse no no
Mamma said boy don't you run
Look how far we've come
Don't forget where you're from
I didn't work work this hard
Just to let them take it from you
Give them hell give them hell
Don't run don't run don't run
Baby give em hell don't run
Don't run don't run don't run
Baby give em hell don't run
I won't run won't run won't run
I've come too far too far too far
The things you've can't be undone
No I won't run won't run won't run
