[ Featuring DEJUAN YOUNG, DeAngelo saunders ]
Lyrics:
They tried to tell me how I feel.
I tried to tell them they was wrong.
They said I'm wrong.
I could've held in all them tears.
And died before I changed my life.
Cause every time I let it cry.
They told me not to let it cry.
I tried not to let it out.
And then they seem to let it out.
Okay baby, that ain't right!
But if I even fix mouth.
I'm just tryna fuss right?
Okay, tell when I'm wrong,
Because it started with Mama.
And that subject kind of tricky,
She was kinda like a father.
I was there for all the pain.
Still can't understand this trauma.
But it's rushing, and it's nothing,
I can do to make her prouder.
And the lesson in the message
That she sending can't go louder.
But the messy shit I'm messing with
Kind of make me miss my Father.
Now I'm feeling like a coward,
Cause the only shit that scared a nigga.
-Mama Higher Power.
And she always ran to call on it when I asked her bout my Father.
Took me 20 years of studying to understand the drama.
Then through all these broken promises...
They tried to tell me how I feel.
I tried to tell them they was wrong.
They said I'm wrong.
I could've held in all them tears.
And died before I changed my life.
Cause every time I let it cry.
They told me not to let it cry.
I tried not to let it out.
And then they seem to let it out.
Okay baby, that ain't right!
But if I even fix my mouth.
They get to kicking while I'm down.
I ain't looking for a fight.
I be nice and I'm a clown.
But if they ask me what's wrong.
You ain't ask me what's wrong...
I imagine being humble,
And they tell me that I am.
I ask em am I humble,
And they tell me that I know this.
They tell me that I'm humble,
And I act like I don't notice.
The answers to the questions,
That I'm asking can't be spoken.
Young Black and Majestic,
The magic dwells in the madness.
Perfected it with some practice.
And turned them curses to blessings.
Easier starting over,
Than walking up out the valley.
Stole that blame from my daddy.
So I can start me a family.
Cause the highs of life can leave you hanging.
So they told me call it hope.
Taught me faith and taught me works.
But they ain't even have a rope.
Learned to read and learned to write,
But they ain't ever leave a note.
It's a billion better ways to a man he all alone.
Than to tell him that you love him.
Then tell him he can't sing his song.
You can call it all a game.
Or you can sit it on a throne.
I don't wanna play,
If you can't take the blows, You claim to make.
They told me put them tears away,
I saved em for these rainy days.
They tried to tell me how I feel.
I tried to tell them they was wrong.
They said I'm wrong.
I could've held in all them tears.
And died before I changed my life.
Cause every time I let it cry.
They told me not to let it cry.
I tried not to let it out.
And then they seem to let it out.
Okay baby, that ain't right!
But if I even fix my mouth!
They get to kicking while I'm down.
I ain't looking for a fight.
I be nice and I'm a clown.
But if they ask me what's wrong.
You ain't ask me what's wrong...
