Petey Pablo - Me And My Momma lyrics
[Intro] You know I asked my Mother If it was wrong for me to Fall to my knee's and pray to God And ask for forgiveness for somebody else She got a forgiving heart So she told me I wasn't wrong So Dad I ask for forgiveness for you [Hook: Petey Pablo] Me and my Mom was close But my Pops was a rolling stone He taught me how to be like him And ever since then I been gone But the difference with me leaving home I never left for long Cause this where I belong And I'm grateful for him leaving home Cause if he hadn't a left I probably wouldn't a been able to stand on my own [Verse 1: Petey Pablo] I ain't get to see my Moms and Pops in love with each other I only got to see em' fighting and fussing I only got to hear em' yelling and cussing I'm throwing temper tantrums Pops getting up Walking out the front door and then slam it I ain't mad about it Everything at home was straight Can't miss the taste of something If it's never been on your plate Can't catch a sight of something If it's just a glare in your face Can't understand something That you're mind tried to erase I caught hell in my younger days Football ages When the other kids had Pop's to play with Coming from the fishing hole With just a fishing pole I ain't catch no fish Cause Poppa never taught me how to bait it Look at me now , I made it I'm straight And I don't owe that n***a "nathing" And I ain't mad at my people, man I'm glad I had a chance To get to know my Momma being Daddy [Hook] [Verse 2: Petey Pablo] Cause I done been stuck up (stuck up) Shot at (shot at) Hit across the head with a baseball bat (damn) Stabbed (stabbed) Right here (right here) Damn near smothered with a plastic bag Kidnapped (kidnapped) Held for ransom My Cousin had the money But he ain't handle it Young as hell And Street's had me (they had me) Thanks to my no good Daddy That dude knew that my Momma couldn't handle it (she couldn't handle it) All the responsibility she had (she had) But thanks to the Good Lord, I managed And you know what's crazy I ain't even mad at cha' [Hook] 2x
