| [00:13.62] |
My best friend do not got a mommy and he jealous of me |
| [00:17.73] |
So I hug her extra tight before she's ready to sleep |
| [00:21.56] |
In the morning I got lot to do and places to be |
| [00:25.24] |
Mommy crying in the kitchen I pretend I don't see |
| [00:29.00] |
Then I grab my bag I say goodbye and then she says it to me |
| [00:32.45] |
As I'm walking out the door I wonder what's expected of me |
| [00:36.21] |
I love my momma and I wanna make her problems go away |
| [00:40.07] |
But I don't want to see a child in who is parenting me |
| [00:43.64] |
A couple days ago I sat down in the kitchen with her |
| [00:47.28] |
And she told me that she hate the way she look |
| [00:50.39] |
And she get lonely when I'm gone 'cause she got nowhere to turn |
| [00:54.91] |
So she tried to lose herself inside her book |
| [00:58.17] |
The conversation ended as I'm feeling like a horrible son |
| [01:02.35] |
But I kept it and I didn't say a word |
| [01:05.31] |
Because I knew that it would only make it worse |
| [01:09.31] |
Mommy taught me confidence and now she insecure, ah |
| [01:13.26] |
Mommy taught me not to be afraid of mistakes |
| [01:16.84] |
Mommy taught me always to follow a dream |
| [01:20.65] |
Mommy taught me how to deal with the pressure |
| [01:24.40] |
But not when the pressure don't belong to me |
| [01:28.06] |
Mommy taught me always be grateful and share |
| [01:31.73] |
Mommy taught me always to do what is fair |
| [01:35.49] |
It's not that I don't care it's that I care too much |
| [01:39.17] |
And I still believe in heroes |
| [01:41.58] |
I still believe in |
| [01:44.45] |
Everything you taught me, |
| [01:45.32] |
That's why I can't believe your ******g nerve |
| [01:46.96] |
You just complain, complain, complain, |
| [01:48.66] |
I don't think I get the treatment I deserve |
| [01:50.71] |
Because I think about you all day, |
| [01:52.60] |
I don't focus and I feel my stomach turn |
| [01:54.28] |
Then you tell me not to worry 'bout it, |
| [01:55.97] |
Ma' you would just eat your ******g words |
| [01:58.17] |
******, took me years just to say this, |
| [02:00.25] |
So I ain't leaving one thing out |
| [02:02.14] |
When I see a tear on your face, |
| [02:04.04] |
Is only thing I can think 'bout |
| [02:06.00] |
Only thing I want to fix, |
| [02:07.66] |
If I can't help then I flip out |
| [02:09.57] |
I saw you cry driving me to school |
| [02:11.33] |
Then you wondered why I got kicked out |
| [02:13.32] |
See I thought this ****** was okay, |
| [02:14.97] |
My homie found out and he don't |
| [02:17.02] |
When I told him I can't hang today |
| [02:18.94] |
'Cause my mom depressed she can't be alone |
| [02:20.89] |
You taught me not to bite my tongue |
| [02:22.54] |
You taught me I control my fate |
| [02:24.42] |
You taught me how to get ****** straight |
| [02:26.26] |
You taught me what is fair, this ain't |
| [02:28.23] |
******, I don't want to hear about what could be, |
| [02:30.35] |
Why the ****** you gotta let the past control you? |
| [02:32.09] |
I don't want to hear about a fight with daddy |
| [02:34.08] |
Or about the money daddy owe you |
| [02:35.62] |
I don't want to hear that you feel ugly |
| [02:37.56] |
You're more beautiful than you just could imagine |
| [02:39.44] |
I don't want to be in this position |
| [02:41.11] |
When I listen thinking you don't know how good you have it |
| [02:43.38] |
You could be homeless with no money, |
| [02:45.08] |
When the wind blowing there's snow coming |
| [02:46.86] |
You could be like dad, living the same life |
| [02:48.83] |
Everyday and going home to nobody |
| [02:50.73] |
At least you got me, huh? |
| [02:52.59] |
At least you got heat, huh? |
| [02:54.64] |
I want to make it just to make you rich |
| [02:56.11] |
But a dollar can't sell a pessimist |
| [02:58.08] |
Look, I wanna be someone that you can speak with |
| [03:01.76] |
But you always tellin' me never forget to be a kid |
| [03:03.57] |
But I can't be a kid when I see you like this |
| [03:05.71] |
Can't be myself when I see you like this |
| [03:07.51] |
Old enough to know my hero isn't invincible |
| [03:10.03] |
But I'm still young enough to not wanna know |
| [03:11.90] |
Where all the weaknesses is |
| [03:13.09] |
I just don't think it's right |
| [03:14.56] |
And I just don't think it's fair to act |
| [03:16.68] |
When I feel like I gotta parent my parent |
| [03:18.89] |
Just for my parent to parent back |
| [03:20.50] |
I love you more than you know |
| [03:21.99] |
But I cannot be the only reason |
| [03:24.17] |
My role model don't roll down a deep end 'cause |
| [03:27.42] |
Mommy taught me not to be afraid of mistakes |
| [03:30.95] |
Mommy taught me always to follow a dream |
| [03:34.42] |
Mommy taught me how to deal with the pressure |
| [03:38.27] |
But not when the pressure don't belong to me |
| [03:41.91] |
Mommy taught me always be grateful and share |
| [03:45.59] |
Mommy taught me always to do what is fair |
| [03:49.25] |
It's not that I don't care it's that I care too much |
| [03:53.00] |
And I still believe in heroes |
| [03:55.54] |
I still believe in |
| [03:57.78] |
Heroes |
