The Synphony - Single Mother lyrics

(*talking*) Yeah-yeah-yeah, ay let's win a Grammy with this one Let's go woo-woo, this for all the single mothers out there Coming straight from your boy Fliperaci, the number one fly boy I done took y'all to the club, I done took y'all to the streets Fin to make you think, pay attention let's go [Lil' Flip] When we was kids, we wasn't worried about the bills It was all about the ice cream, and rolling down hills Look boy meets girl, the next day he wanna kiss He make it to third base, but the condom wouldn't fit And guess who bust in, the lil' girl's daddy And you know black folks, he beat the lil' girl's a** Now her stepmom mad, she like send her back Cause I don't want my real daughter, growing up like that I tired to tell you last year, when you bought that phone And you don't know what she doing, when we ain't at home In these days, the kids looking older now So a grown man, might tap you on the shoulder now [Hook] This about a lil' mama too, if pop was here I know it's hard to raise a child, and maintain a career This a message, to all the single mothers in the world (don't be wasting all your time) And if a coward get you pregnant, and he don't wanna help Don't get stressed out, you can do it by yourself Cause you a strong woman girl, enjoy your life And no matter what they say, keep your head to the sky [Lil' Flip] Now it's eight years later, ery'body seventeen But everything changed, since Kim left the scene Now her laid back man, moving crackular You want a ki, you gotta meet him at the back of the store But guess who saw who, at the club that night After exchanging phone numbers, somebody started a fight Now ery'body running, so Kim ran with him That's when she said you a playa, why you ain't leaving with them That's when he said I want you, I been waiting for you What you say we get a room, just me and you After too much liquor, one thang led into another But you know where he messed up, he told her he loved her [Hook] [Lil' Flip] Now it's two months later, that n***a disappeared Meanwhile Kim at home, trying to wipe away her tears Befo' she gave it up, he use to call daily Another month pa**ed by, now she going crazy She popping up at clubs, she even keyed his car That's when she got the phone call, b**h you went too far Oh now you calling back, cause your car got scratched You said you loved me, I can't believe I fell for that Damn, I shoulda known you was a pig anyway Look my stomach been hurting, and my friend kinda late Wait, I took a test at least three or four times But you know what cowards say, it ain't mine (*talking*) And I know you tired, of hearing that man A real man take responsibility, for his seeds This for every single mother, whether you white or black It don't matter, you know I'm saying Ery'body can't be born rich, you know I'm saying I come from the hood, I made some'ing out of nothing You know I'm saying, everytime I do a concert It's females in the front row, after the show They like sign my autograph, so I can get back home My kids gotta go to school, you know I'm saying So if you taking care of your child, by your damn self Keep doing your damn thang, if Fantasia can do the sh** Anybody can do it, you dig what I'm saying Straight up, holla back
