作词 : Mike Posner/Bruce Hawes/Joseph Jefferson/Charles Simmons/Tony Pizarro/Joseph Sample/2Pac/Terence Thomas 作曲 : Mike Posner/Bruce Hawes/Joseph Jefferson/Charles Simmons/Tony Pizarro/Joseph Sample/2Pac/Terence Thomas Dear Mom, When I was young me and Mom had beef 17 years old kicked out on the street- I deserved that I'm ashamed of the way I used to speak to you Wish I could but I can't reverse that
Especially to you Your daddy told you a woman's place is in the house And not in the school You payed your own tuition, got your own degree Started your own business, and then you had me How can I repay the lady that looked me in the eyes When I took my first breath Held my little hand when I took my first step I can't wait to sell out that arena on my own For the first time You always told me, It's not your first try, It's how many tries after that I mean how lucky am I That I was born and you were mine?
Life's crazy You know, my parents used to worry about me 'Cuz I barely talked to anybody Just made beats Isn't it ironic I get payed by the syllable? I gotta thank them though, I know it can be difficult As I tiptoe in and out of zip codes, All on a mission to love- that's what I live for! I got big dreams man, I got big goals! You see my old ones now because I lived those!
You gotta admit Ma, I told you I'd get into Duke, and I did Ma I told you I would get signed, and I did Ma Look at this Ma! Look at this Ma!
As I get older, you do too My time gets shorter, that's just truth So I leave with three words They are not eloquent, They are cliché, And they are not clever, They are I Love You
