You are appreciated
When I was a youngin' and ma mama had me
Seventeen years old kicked out on the streets
Though back at the time, I never I'd see her face
Ain't a woman alive that could my mama's place
Suspended from school and scared to go home, I was a fool
With the big boys, breakin' all the rules
I shed tears with my baby sister
Over the years we was poorer the other little kids
And even though we had daddy's, the same drama
When things wrong we'd blame mama
I reminisce on the stress I caused, it was hell
Huggin' on my a jail cell and high school elementary?
Hey, I see the penitentiary, one day
And runnin' from the police, that's right
Mama catch me, put a whoopin' to my backside
And even as a crack theme, mama
You always was a black queen, mama
I for a woman it ain't easy
Tryin' to raise a man you always was committed
A poor single mother on welfare, tell me how ya did it
There's no way I can pay you back
But the plan is to show you that I understand you are appreciated
Lady, don't cha know we love ya? Sweet lady
Dear mama, place no one above ya, sweet lady
You are appreciated, don't cha know we love ya?
Now ain't nobody tell us it was fair
No love from my 'cause the coward wasn't there
He passed away and I didn't cry, cause my anger
Wouldn't let me feel for a stranger
say I'm wrong and I'm heartless, but all along
I was lookin' for a father he was gone
I hung around with the Thugs, and even though they drugs
They a young brother love
I moved out and started really hangin'
I needed money of my own so I started shaggin'
I ain't guilty 'cause, even though I sell rocks
It feels good puttin' money in your mailbox
I love payin' rent when the rent's due
I hope ya got the diamond necklace that I sent to you
'Cause when I was low you was there for me
And never left me alone because you cared for me
And I could see you comin' home after work late
You're in the kitchen tryin' to fix us a hot plate
Ya just workin' with the scraps you was given
And mama made miracles every thanksgivin'
But now the road got rough, here alone
You're tryin' to raise two bad kids on your own
And there's no way I can pay you back
But my plan is to show you that I understand you are appreciated
Lady, don't cha know we love ya? Sweet lady
And dear no one above ya, sweet lady
You are appreciated, don't cha know we love ya?
Pour out some liquor and I reminisce, 'cause through the drama
I can always depend on my mama
And when it seems that I'm hopeless
You say the words that can get me in focus
I was as a little kid
To keep me there's no limit to the things you did
And all my childhood memories
Are full of all the sweet things you did for me
And though I act crazy
I gotta thank the Lord that you made me
There are no words that can express how I feel
You never a secret, always stayed real
And I appreciate, how you raised me
And all the extra love that you gave me
I wish I could take the pain away
If you can make it through the night there's a brighter day
Everything will be alright if ya hold on
It's a struggle everyday, on
And there's no way I can pay you back
But my plan is to show you that I understand you are appreciated
Lady, don't cha know we love ya? lady
And mama place no one above ya, sweet lady
You are appreciated, don't cha we love ya?
Sweet lady, and dear mama
Dear mama, lady, lady, lady
