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 thought I'd see her face
Ain't a woman alive that could take 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 than the other little kids
And even though we had daddy's, the drama
When things went wrong we'd blame mama
I reminisce on the stress I caused, it was hell
Huggin' on my mama from a jail cell and high school elementary?
Hey, I see the penitentiary, one day
And runnin' from the police, that's right
catch me, put a whoopin' to my backside
And even as a theme, mama
You always was a black queen, mama
I finally 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? 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 daddy '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
They 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 they sold drugs
They showed a young brother love
I moved out and started really hangin'
I needed of my own so I shaggin'
I ain't guilty 'cause, even though I 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 I was low you was there for me
And never left me alone 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 workin' with the scraps you was given
And mama made miracles every thanksgivin'
But now the 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 mama place no one above ya, sweet lady
You are appreciated, don't cha know we love ya?
Pour out some liquor and I reminisce, 'cause 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 back in focus
When I was sick as a kid
To keep me happy there's no limit to the things you did
And all my childhood memories
Are of all the sweet things you did for me
And even though I act crazy
I the Lord that you made me
There are no words that can express how I feel
You never kept a secret, always stayed real
And I appreciate, how you raised me
And all the extra love that you gave me
I I could take the pain away
If you can make it through the night there's a brighter day
Everything be alright if ya hold on
It's a everyday, gotta roll on
And there's no way I can pay you back
But my plan is to show you I understand you are appreciated
Lady, don't cha know we love ya? Sweet lady
And dear mama place no one above ya, sweet lady
You are appreciated, don't cha know we love ya?
Sweet lady, and dear mama
