I feel you, I know how it is, mama's just a little girl, don't nobody understand, I feel you She was born a heavy set girl with big tails and curves, a heart full of gold, still it won't change the world Though she could never understand why, some underhanded plans witness a man die, was only 15, should've been a beauty queen, still See her crying by the caskets when her parents got killed, little girl don't cry, cause even though they died, you can best believe they watching over thee from the sky Never asked for this misery, but look at what you getting, it's a blessing in disguise, when you find out you're pregnant, no money, no home And even though you all alone, you gots to do this on your own, so baby go, I wish you luck and if you need me, call, just come to me and let me feed you all I can understand the way it feels when you're fighting the world, facing all this drama, when mama's just a little girl Mama's just a little girl, don't know why, mama's just a little girl, baby she is and I, I'm alone at home and time for me is on the other side Mama's just a little girl, you gotta hold her head up high, I'm all for me At 16, what a beautiful thing, the very essence of a jet black, heavenly queen and who could tell she'd get pregnant at an early age She didn't listen, had ***, watch her belly raise, hey, got violated by someone she dated, if this is fate, I hate to see the seed she created And so we wait, although it takes time to build a body and a mind, she reclines nine months, then finally it's time, what do we find? A little grown boy of mine with a tortured soul, addicted to a life of crime, had no time for a growing stage He learned his values on the streets at an early age, watch for police, don't come home Cause mama's acting crazy at the hospital, bout to have another baby like a rose from the concrete Growing with it, blessed with twins, how the hell can mama raise three men? So we began, close to family, such insanity, a happy home from one act of inhumanity But mama said the seed was corrupt that used to rub her belly, begging us to breathe and she loves us Now mama sits quiet, sipping peppermint schnapps, turned the house into a spot and made her watch for the cops Hey, how could mama bring a thug like me in this world? She ain't the cause of all the drama, cause mama's just a little girl Mama's just a little girl, we're better than she is now Oh, it's time for things to point the other side Mama's just a little girl, I guess she blames us Now, will she remain in the same spot? The gunshots rang, they came from the K-spot Now look here, I see her clutching her son in her arms She hurt, her heart bleeding as she watched her seed die in the dirt Fulfill prophecy, but who can stop the grief? I walk around trying to hold the world up on top of me Probably be an innocent man, still I'm the victim of a curse What could be worse? Nothing but pain since my birth Only functions at the pen, cause everybody's in Paying back society, I'm guilty of a life of sin I watch the drama occur, my eyes blur before I jet it I wonder why we all have to die before we get it Though we share tears, so many peers out in Bury Worried and scared, knowing I'ma see the cemetery Must be prepared in this cold world, no one cares Know it ain't fair, but we don't bear Do our share in this land of the underhanded schemes and plans Vivid dreams of a nigga having G's in hand Mama told me not to be a punk *** what you talk about, coward, what you niggas want? Hey, there ain't a thing I wouldn't do for my mama in this world Cause you know I ain't mad at you, you're just a little girl See, mama's just a little girl Mama's just a little girl Mama's just a little girl Facing all this drama, cause mama's just a little girl They ask us why we mutilate each other like we do They wonder why we hold such little worth on human life Facing all this drama To ask us why we turn from bad to worse Is to ignore from which we came You see, you wouldn't ask why the rose that grew from the concrete had damaged petals On the contrary, we would all celebrate its tenacity We would all love its will to reach the sun Well, we are the roses This is the concrete And these are my damaged petals Don't ask me why Thank God, nigga Ask me how You see, mama's just a little girl Hey Mama
