[1] - if it wasnt for yo momma
Never thinkin I was good enough
If it wasnt for yo brotha
Always checkin every move I gave up
If it wasnt for that bitch
Down the block always in yo ear
Be no room for messin up
But baby love, youd be right here
Tell me why must i, since they bought us things
Suffer indefinitely for loving you
Sugar why must I prove to anybody but you
Feel I been chosen to loose
I paid my dues, oh
[repeat 1]
Id been lying too, if I said to you
That theyre pressuring me away from you
Its that shes run this
Got us fighting over dumbness
Got my heart on some numbness
Thats your momma and I cant take it (no more)
I gets no joy but when I hurt
So when it hurts, it really hurts
[repeat 1]
Gotta learn to keep your family out the game
When youre trying to do your thing
They got more thats due
Just cuz momma fed you right all your life
Dont mean she walk on a perfect line
Watch your step, or pay the price, sacrifice
Mothers sisters fathers brothers
Cousins aunts and uncles too
You know them be the main cause
Just because we know them
Doesnt mean that they aint workin you
Always its something something something goin on
[repeat 1]
