Mama Nem

[Intro]

Lets go, yeah

I feel this one man

And this one is long overdue

It's 'bout my mama nem

My mama, her sisters, her brothers, grandma too man

I just wanna take this time to speak about mama nem

Yeah,

Check it

[Tech N9ne - Verse 1]

She carried me when she was fifteen

Had me when she was sixteen

Reminiscing on how well she did things

Got one popped on 11/8/71 she had this king

She was baring that on day

I was just a staring upon that face

With her, just declaring my mum said wait

Than her and her sisters named me Aaron Dontez Yates

She, tried to give me everything I seen

Casing ? gas cynlinders was her means for green

Took me to the movies when they bought Halloween to screen

Got me a big wheel couldn't afford a green machine

But I loved it, when I got it, all my friends swarming

Cause in the projects big wheels wasn't the norm

And I'm pouring this out to the woman I'm adoring

She know I like sugar snacks and a fried baloney sandwich in the morning

[Chorus]

Mama

I take you everywhere I go

I thank you're mine, thats my momma nem

I only know what I know cause of my mama nem

She gave me life and made me me

I don't know where I'd be without

My auntie nem, my sisters and, my uncle nem

Mama nem

[Tech N9ne - Verse 2]

When I got bad grades I was in the heat seat

Got a woopin' when I used another kids cheatsheet

But when I got a good grade card she bought me Beat street

The single, ayo I had that mug on repeat

Mama nem taught me rythm that I use yep

My uncle nem say's stay on your P's and Q's neph'

Mama talking catch you, if you talking like you deaf

God-fearing still taught me how to two-step

Took me to church, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday

Than Sunday thinking why me

That was mama nem placin' the love inside me

Our house was lively

My granny house, 8 girls and 4 boys beside me

Thanking Mama nem, for the weight that you carry

Pulling my teeth with friends sayin "boy you scary"

I 'memba mama laughin sayin' "Is it loose?" "Very"

Pull it then, put cash in my pillow sayin' its the tooth fairy

[Chorus]

Mama

I take you everywhere I go

I thank you momma

I only know what I know cause of my mama nem

She gave me life and you made me who

I don't know who I'd be without

Auntie nem, my sisters and, my uncle and

Mama nem

[Tech N9ne - Verse 3]

Epilepsy at 18, the lupus hit her

Pancreatitus was taking her but God was with her

I asked to show me something cause I was all bitter

Right after that the pancreatitus had all withered

Mama? "Yeah"

Mama!! "What?"

MAMA!!! "WHAT Boy?"

I'm a big timer

I'm always away from you cause of this music biz drama

But I really miss you and I'm always thinking 'bout big mama

She used to make that Thanks Giving and Christmas dinner

Grandma's home cooking easily show up missing winters

Mama nem would take you in even if you're vicious sinner

Nobody would ever take that humungous love thats within her

If your mama gone, heavens where mum belongs

Or if your momma home, call ya momma phone

And say I love you momma and you are not alone

I just wanted to thank you and thats why I made this momma song

[Chorus]
