MAMA USED TO SAY Lyrics By Marqus Clae

[Intro]
(Yeah)
(Yeah)
Yeah
Yeah

[Verse 1]
We start to finish, I had a plan that we’d start the business
My arms extended to real niggas that’s lost in trenches
My granny died in front of me, I can’t get off the image
Like why would God allow me to see somethin’ so descriptive
Eleven years later, I still sit with the same grief
Seconds away from hatin’ the world, could you blame me?
Heart big as the Eiffel Tower but still it feels cold
I’m kickin’ my way through the steel doors with Timberland steel toes
Now I’m seekin’ for vеngeance
Couple dеmons watchin’ over me, they want me to give in
It felt good to see my uncle walk free from the shackles placed on his feet and received arrangements of peace
Shit, I feel like I’m responsible to show him the ropes
Of this new wicked world that got us by the throat
Adrenaline simmerin’, mentally, I’m fucked up pretty bad
I didn’t really see a lot of good days lookin’ back
Fuck it though
[Chorus]
Mama used to tell me, “Lil nigga, go back outside”
Mama used to tell me to look a man in the eye
Mama used to tell me these bitches ain’t got my back
Mama used to tell me these niggas’ll get you whacked
Mama used to tell me, “Lil nigga, go back outside”
Mama used to tell me to look a man in the eye
Mama used to tell me these bitches ain’t got my back (Yo)
Mama used to tell me these niggas’ll get you whacked

[Verse 2]
Ayy, this is my prophecy, I got to see the peek of the light
My life was obsolete, now I believe, I’m eager to fly
Like eagles in skies that sit over planes
I fantasize to float in the wind up under my wings (South coast)
Okay, the industry was never meant for a nigga like me
Too many wanna be seen, fuckin’ up the regime
I had dreams of cruisin’ in Benzes, mula that’s endless, I’m not cool with a pension
To go out or really learn how to maneuver through friction
It’s all for what nigga resort to little attention
Aware of the blasphemous chatter but I rarely listen
I never fucked with none of you niggas to begin with
I don’t want features or pictures or internet friendships
I’m on my Pac shit
With all odds against me, I viciously pop shit
They never care until the day you bigger than life
Or when it’s over and your family remembers your life, damn

[Chorus]
Mama used to tell me, “Lil nigga, go back outside”
Mama used to tell me to look a man in the eye
Mama used to tell me these bitches ain’t got my back
Mama used to tell me these niggas’ll get you whacked
Mama used to tell me, “Lil nigga, go back outside”
Mama used to tell me to look a man in the eye
Mama used to tell me these bitches ain’t got my back
Mama used to tell me these niggas’ll get you whacked
