"Mama" lyrics

Mama don't wanna let you down
Wanna see you always smile and you never frown
In the summer
That's when I let you go
I just want you to know you're still part of my soul
Mama you told me to always forgive
God it's hard to live like this
But I will not let you down

I know you still hear me
And no one's gonna see me like you
Why didn't you stay for me
I know you had to leave

And my momma said
"Why'd you have to do these drugs, would you find a hobby and just rise above?"
She said
"If you're on the road you'll end up in handcuffs."
And I didn't give no fucks
So I ended up locked up
I know cause' I see it now
Demons surrounded me they held me down
But I defeated them you would be proud of me

Mama don't wanna let you down
Wanna see you always smile and you never frown
In the summer
That's when I let you go
I just want you to know you're still part of my soul
Mama you told me to always forgive
God it's hard to live like this
But I will not let you down

I know you still hear me
And no one's gonna see me like you
Why didn't you stay for me
I know you had to leave
