Mama Said/Tightrope Video (MV)

Mama said pick up your crown
Baby boy I raised a king
She said put you mind to it
You'll accomplish many things
Always go and seek your dream
Even if it's in the distance
Watch your mouth and
Wash them dish
Put your ego on a shelf
I hate the struggle in your eyes
I seen you try to hide the hell
So I didn't asked for much
Doggy bag up in my lunch
Momma ima be your crutch
And come in clutch
Right when you need
Taught me family's number 1
And where my heat on my sleeve

Daddy said pick up your smile
Baby boy I raised a man
You'll find struggle in your life
But it's part of his plan
Make sure to lend a help hand
Don't be afraid to take the lead
Hold on son let's repeat
Hold on son let's repeat

Momma said pick up your crown
Daddy said pick up your smile
Mama said to count your blessing
And to enjoy your adalessions
Daddy said to keep on pressing
Every day is a new lesson son
I know that you've been down a lot
(I know that you've been down a lot)

Momma said pick up your crown
Daddy said pick up your smile
Mama said to count your blessing
And to enjoy your adalessions
Daddy said to keep on pressing
Every day is a new lesson son
I know that you've been down a lot
But you'll beat that depression

Daddy said pick up your smile
Baby boy I raised a man
You'll find struggle in your life
But it's part of his plan
Make sure to lend a help hand
Don't be afraid to take the lead
Learn to fail and then succeed
And Son your life will be a breeze
Always think before you speak
Don't let your feeling find a hinding place
Bottle up emotions
Are like monster in a quiet space
You can have an opened mind
And you can have acquired taste
And home is where your smiles at
And where your people smile back

Lately
I've been walking on a tight rope
Maestro
Play the beat so my feet might move
Like
1 2 3 4 5
I fall again
How many steps till I can go again
Lately I've been walking on a tight rope
Maestro
Play the beat so my feet might move
Like
1 2 3 4 5
I fall again
How many steps till I can go again

I feel like my path is getting thinner
Ive been see people eating
Where's my plate and where's my dinner
Take a step and youll remember
You'll fall out if you get bitter
Balance every step with every breath
Make sure your moves are all correct
And if there something you neglect
Make sure you got a safety net
But I've been catching thing that got
Me taking extra steps
Baby I've been thinking lately
You're my muse
Sway me to the way
I fall In love with you

Lately
I've been walking on a tight rope
Maestro
Play the beat so my feet might move
Like
1 2 3 4 5
I fall again
How many steps till I can go again
Lately I've been walking on a tight rope
Maestro
Play the beat so my feet might move
Like
1 2 3 4 5
I fall again
How many steps till I can go again

I remember
I remember
Having dreams that reach the stars
Adolescents no depression
Sneaking out when it was dark
Meet my friends down by the park
Tuck and roll we spark it up
Leave my weekend memories
In empty shots and solo cups
