Mama Know I Tried Video (MV)

It's not my big lock on the door that makes me safe
It ain't whatever I got in the drawer next to the bed that makes me safe
I lay down and I go to sleep because I know who my God is
Mom, I hope you know I tried

Last night I couldn't sleep
I felt it slipping away from me
Pain was in your voice
I seen it staying

Thought we all defeated
Claimed it in the name of Jesus
Got the answer I was seeking
That's why I can't believe it

F*ck a Jesus and a Christ
Bitch, I put that on my life
And I'll never pray again
Out of mind and out of sight

What she believed in
Put her trust in you
And yet you still failed her
I watched my mom suffer

Yet she still wasn't rebellious
Glorified your name like the good book tells us
I always gave you praise
Even though you f*cking failed her

I prayed for the answer
You took another angel
Murder after murder
What's supposed to be our savior

According to the scriptures
Know who asked and shall receive
Bullshit
So miraculous

But can't even cure cancer
Give a blind man's sight
Crippled man started dancing
David slew Goliath and survived the lions den

But my mama died from pancreas
Cancer don't lie again
Mama, I hope you know I tried
That night I couldn't sleep

I felt it slipping away from me
Pain was in your voice
I seen it stage 4
We got defeated

Claimed it in the name of Jesus
Got the answer I was seeking
Therefore I dont believe it
If I said it then I mean it

Motherf*cker, f*ck a family
I don't need y'all support
Stay the f*ck from around me
I don't even love my own kids

You know it's f*cked you
Mama, I hope you know I tried
And I did it all for you
At your memorial they praised Kim

Johnny played me like a sucker
Didn't even mention your boys
And he called hisself yo brother
I swear to God I love her

You know me
I would have flushed him
Now how the f*ck y'all love my mama
If y'all didn't support me

My mama loved y'all regardless how y'all did her
If something happened to y'all
She would have comforted all y'all children
Y'all made it personal

Trying to appease the siblings
Out of respect for my mama
The reason that I didn't kill you
Mama, I hope you know I tried

That night I couldn't sleep
I felt it slipping away from me
Pain was in your voice
I seen it

Stage 4 we got defeated
Claimed it in the name of Jesus
Got the answers I was seeking
Therefore I don't believe it

Mama, I hope you know I tried
That night I couldn't sleep
I felt it slipping away from me
Pain was in your voice

I seen it
Stage 4 we got defeated
Claimed it in the name of Jesus
Got the answers I was seeking

Therefore I don't believe it
