I Made It
(专辑: Kingdom Come - 2006)
I
told you Ms. Carter... Here we are (Momma, I
made it) You know how I
do it like The
DOC do it, I
fly through it That's how I
operate, (momma, I
made it) Ghetto like the
grease when you getting ya hair braided Sweeter than ya sister Kool-Aid is Hooray! It's the
underdog now my feet On the
desk I'm the
Presidential favorite Can't believe I
got away with My earliest stages to being on stages Having my way with the
world, congratulations! Your baby boy's a
made man I'm a
hold the
fam down like three generations I'm talking when spaceships are around and ya great-great grands Reminiscing bout the
foundation you gave em For repairing my relationship with my pops before he passed All I
ask is you raise your glass in this celebration Toast to the
most beautiful girl in the
world My inspiration thanks for the
information Momma I
made it... momma I
made it Out in BK where It ain't everyday that you make it out Be on top of yachts waving I
remember you saving for the
light bill, paid the
rent with the
light bill Now our crib dark as a
basement Had to lock up the
phone when you wasn't home We was communicating like the
money you made wasn't basic Our cable was basic no HBO, WHT, just Ralph McDaniels on the
station I
aggravated you for Atari and ColecoVision pinstripe Lee's When the
first day of school came in I
was okay with not having everything Long as Saturdays you had the
Commodores playing The
expression on your face was priceless Still with me 'til this day baby girl I
won't erase it I
go to my grave with the
memory of the
sacrifice you made You deserve a
standing ovation Momma I
made it... momma I
made it Now your little misfit make sure every day is Christmas, write out your wish list 6's, wrist is glistening you don't even like jewels But you could get missing anywhere you like to Where the
waters light blue, anything you order Sign it to your nice room leave a
extra tip, ma Be extra nice to 'em CEO of Carter Foundation, wow! I
know pop looking down I
know Colleek somewhere up in the
clouds like Go get 'em Grandma make me proud Didn't have a
man in the
house so you made one So I
act like your husband and I'm only your son I
told you one day I'd get you a
home I
didn't know it could possibly be in Rome Told me don't wait on nobody, get your own So with me myself and my microphone, I
made it Momma I
made it... momma I
made it
