[Intro]
(Yeah, this is for my...)
This one right here goes out to my favorite girl
Me? I call her LiteSkinFreckleFace
Yes indeed, love her to death (my my my)
So baby girl, check this out
Tell me if you like it (my my my)
She came from a broken home
(Nothin` really positive)
Back in the day, it was a lot of drama goin` on
(But she`d always find a way to deal with it)
Never knew if she would make it through
Occupation, situation got you crazy boo
But when you had me, you had a soldier too
Don`t you worry `bout a thing cuz I got you
Just wanna take the time to tell you how I feel
Girl, I just wanna thank you for keepin` me real
I really love you mama
I love my LiteSkinFreckleFace
Always spread love all over the place
If I lost my light, you`d show me the way
Just wanna take a minute to say
I love my LiteSkinFreckleFace
Believe me, I`ve heard everything you say
And I keep you with me baby everyday
So I know we`re gonna be okay
I love mama
Fried chicken, rice and red beans
(Damn, I miss Sunday)
All the times I used to dream about havin` thangs
(You always told me to be patient, it`ll happen one day)
`Member the rest of your marriage, we used to get in the back (?)
Or when you put me in the Wagon to the laundromat
Way back when I was the little man of the house
You was the woman I was all about
And I...
Just wanna take the time to tell you how I feel
Girl, I just wanna thank you for keepin` me real
I really love you mama
I love my LiteSkinFreckleFace
Always spread love all over the place
If I lost my light, you`d show me the way
Just wanna take a minute to say
I love my LiteSkinFreckleFace
Believe me, I`ve heard everything you say
And I keep you with me baby everyday
So I know we`re gonna be okay
I love mama
Now it`s 20 years later and believe me
She`s the only girl for me
I`d trick a million dollars just to make you happy
If I had it, listen here
I say a little prayer every night for the Lord to send to me
Somebody just half as good as you
I wanna be blessed like my daddy, I love mom
[Rap]
So many nights, me and moms kickin` conversation
Growin` pains and peer pressure is what I`m facin`
But mom`s erasin` the pain with her words, so gentle
With braids and bad friends, got me stuck in the middle
But I wiggle outta bad situations `cause of you
Drillin` me everyday about the right thing to do
And if I didn`t listen, then you know I`d be through
That`s why I owe my whole life to you
I love my LiteSkinFreckleFace
Always spread love all over the place
If I lost my light, you`d show me the way
Just wanna take a minute to say
I love my LiteSkinFreckleFace
Believe me, I`ve heard everything you say
And I keep you with me baby everyday
So I know we`re gonna be okay
