I just wanna thank you, Momma
For always holding me down
Even on the lonely days when no one around (Yea)
I just wanna thank you, Momma
For being there for me, planting seeds
Hope you like who I grew up to be
I just wanna thank you, Momma
Yea, yea, yea
I just wanna thank you, Momma
Uh

We never had it easy, we always made a way
Window shopping, cars hopping, you encouraged me to play
Make friends with the neighbors, bought me Raiders socks, Lakers
Lil' sister was her favorite, she was born five years later
After I showed up, all the funds slowed up
'84 was the year, all skill, no luck
On these real LA streets, where you had to be a G
Couldn't wear certain colors, pay attention, follow me
On my side of the street, ain't no peace
Belly of the beast, price of dying cheap
Price of living steep, let's call it underneath
Back in those days, it was hard for me to sleep
Picture lil' me in a man's world
Brand new apparel, eating Taco Bell
Tryna dodge shells, hopping over rails
Report card in the mail, pray I don't fail

I just wanna thank you, Momma
For always holding me down
Even on the lonely days when no one around
I just wanna thank you, Momma
For being there for me, planting seeds
Hope you like who I grew up to be
I just wanna thank you, Momma
Yea, yea, yea
I just wanna thank you, Momma
Uh

Although I rarely get to reminisce
I often wish you and my pops could just co-exist, but then again
I love Dennis Hunn the 1st with all my heart
I came to the conclusion y'all just grew apart
You would sing to me sitting in the car
You my movie star, took me to the park
Helped me get my start, even healed my scars
Even when I'm gone, I'm never too far
Although I rarely get to reminisce
I often wish you and my pops could just co-exist, but then again
Uh

I just wanna thank you, Momma
For always holding me down
Even on the lonely days when no one around (Yea)
I just wanna thank you, Momma
For being there for me, planting seeds
Hope you like who I grew up to be
I just wanna thank you, Momma
Yea, yea, yea
I just wanna thank you, Momma
Uh
