Trife Diesel, Mike Payne - Mother Like You lyrics

I can never find, another mother like you

Momma forgive me for my wrong doings
All the pain and confusion
I'm hand to hands in
Them late night shootings
Momma forgive me for them times I
Had you going to court
Running the same excuses
Saying that it wasn't my fault
Even though, you knew your son was to blame
It's like I suddenly changed
Hugging them corners
Daily pumping that 'caine
Under the building
Blowing blunts in the rain
Following the footsteps of my
Big brother James, back at the range
Acting unrudely, watching dirty movies
Bringing home toolies
Falling out, pissy drunk on the couch
You come to move me
Get up staggering, comatose
Drooling on my overcoat
Eyes cold shut, you swore I overdosed
But on a sober note, listen mommy
I know the ropes your son can go broke
And still survive on granola oats
You taught me how to row the boat
Battling wind
In your womb, I learnt how to paddle and swim
Now I'm known for writing rhymes
Cuz I value the pen stop blowing haze
But I'm engaged to them barrels that spin
I woke up, feeling joyced, my team
We ball like the oils
And we gon' shine til the gate
God decides to destroy you

I can never find, another mother like you
Ooh, you are my mother
My sister, my brother, my friend
I can never find, another mother like you
Ooh, you are my mother
My sister, my brother, my friend

We started out as friends, from friends
We grew to lovers
When we was down and out, no doubt
We had each other
Curtis I, back then, we was nervous and shy
Two little love birds, flapping our wings
All through the sky
You the apple of my eye, my candy
Harder than Brandy
At age 20, we had our first son
And started a family
I remember nights when you was at home
Alone bugging
Making bottles and changing diapers
While I was out hustling
It's a full time job, trynna manage a kid
And I respect you as my queen
Cuz you handle your biz
Took care of the crib
When I was on the road doing shows
I wasn't there, but financially, daddy
Carried the load you like the rose and I'm
The thorns to your stem
To protect you, and my seed
And believe me I'mma ride til the end
One thing, your heart lies a gem
That'll shine bright
Our little boy, plus me and you together
We define life
But in hindsight, maybe when the time's right
Things will occur
Beyond the glitter and the limelight
Sincerely yours, you the greatest reward
And you deserve the number one
Mom of the year award

I can never find, another mother like you
Ooh, you are my mother
My sister, my brother, my friend
