Mike Jones - Grandma lyrics
[Mike Jones - Grandma lyrics]
Ohhh grandma (MIKE JONES! Who?)
DJ Slice, tear me up baby, tear me up
This heah for my grandma mayne
I love you baby
The whole family miss you baby
I'm fin' ta tell the world
How important you was to me
Ohhh grandma, I miss you
And wish I could kiss you and hug you girl
Ohhh grandma, I miss you
And wish I could kiss you and hug you girl
The way you used to hold me -
The way you used to hold me
The way you used to show me -
The way you used to show me
Befo' you left you told me -
Befo' you left you told me
That I was gonna have to keep the family up
(Mike Jones)
April 14th was when, I felt I lost a friend
I damn near stopped rappin
Damn near stopped pimpin pens
Cousin locked in the pen
When will this drama end
I get success but it feels
Like my stress begins
At 17 thought I was grown, had to move on
Moved out T jones home
Had to do this on my own
My grandma left my life
I felt it wasn't right
I get awards and I break down
And I cry on sight
Cause she ain't here with me
But I know she hearin me beg and plead
That she could still be here next to me
Even though you passed and left
Yo' memories are kept in my mind, heart
And soul - even on my shelf
Now I'm left with cousin Shelly
Jessie, and they real, and Gary
Junior and my brother, Uncle June
And my mother and
Even though sometimes I get too
Busy to touch you
From me to y'all I want y'all
To know I love you
Grandma remember when we used to play them
Bones and you would skunk us
And you never had a problem punkin
Us in front of company
Wally just had a son - he's a daddy
I'mma uncle now
Wally just had a son - he's a daddy
I'mma uncle now
Latran playin ball, I pray to God he goes pro
And Gary Jr gettin bigger
I just thought I'd let you know
That the family's okay
Everythang's cool and straight
Juanita and Nicky just told me to
Tell you they said hey
And I pray day to day that
The Lord'll pave the way
And you keep lookin down here just smilin
Just showin ya pretty face
And I still hang around my homies that
You see while you were here
Oh and my girl better than ever
She too wish you was here
You know I'm grown now
So I'm puttin food on the table
24 years old and I got my own label
Ice Age Entertainment
We about to take it over
T boy rappin now - he's Mellow
And Wally is Lil' Soldier
Still rolls with me
We close shoulder to shoulder
That gator that you gave my granny I
Use it to sew the game up
Me and was partners, we both now CEO's
It's all good but I wish you
Was able to see me grow
Man, it's crazy, y'knahmsayin?
Dis the main reason here
She the main reason why
Y'all listenin to me today, y'knahmsayin?
True story check it out, true story
A lot of people always used to wonder
How I got up in the game
Y'knahmsayin? My grandma was
999 percent of the reason y'knahmsayin?
It's crazy though, I mean
I used to go to strip clubs all the time and
Try to get people to listen to my CD
You know? And they be like who are you?
And I'm like "Mike Jones"
And they'd be like WHO, y'knahmsayin?
And I used to always tell my grandma
And she used to always tell me to use that
Y'knahmsayin? Cause they gon' regret what
They did to me
Y'knahmsayin? So I started usin
It, and it worked, y'knahmsayin?
And it's it's just crazy mayne y'know?
I started sayin my name a lot - y'knahmsayin?
I started givin my phone
Number out - y'knahmsayin?
When people was tellin me that
It wasn't gon' work
My grandma was tellin me to do it
Y'knahmsayin?
She told she seen a vision and
That's a hell of a vision y'knahmsayin?
And really I started givin out my album
I started promotin it and
All the stuff that y'all been hearin me do
I got it from her
Y'knahmsayin? And and that's the main reason
Why I'm here today
Y'knahmsayin? And and it's crazy man
It's crazy y'know
I'm I'm I'm here and y'all listenin to me
Y'know so I never woulda ever thought
That I'd have the whole world
Listenin to Mike Jones, man, it's crazy man
I didn't even wanna use my real name, y'know?
But grandma was like
Boy you better use that name
It's gon' blow you up one day, y'knahmsayin?
And I was like man you
Don't know what'chu talkin about
And now I'm here, "Who is Mike Jones?"
Holla at'cha boy
