INTRO
INTRODUCING:
The Duchess of "Do Good or Do Better"
The Empress of Empathy
The Lady of Lay Down Somewhere and
The Baroness of Burgundy
My Mama
VERSE ONE
The sun fell asleep in a jar of honey/
Landed in Tampa with half of the stars humming/
Mirrors catching her reflection like she threw it/
Ashamed of all the joy you thought you felt before you knew her/
Protective, even if the seat ejected into fire/
With her ankle in a pot of a blessing you can acquire/
Salt of the earth shorty who braided the block down/
With Senegalese crowns in platinum and honey brown/
HOOK (Diji)
I love my baby, oh yes I do (yes ma'am)/
And if she needs me, I'll be there too (and that's on God)/
I love my baby, I do (that's my mama)/
Oh baby, I love you (say, that's my mama)/
I'm finna make'em stand at applause/
For the one who went and managed it all/
BRIDGE
You keep loving me (3x)
VERSE TWO
Now she said, ain't no hassle to forgive the shackle/
Then turn every whip to licorice and liquefy what you brought to battle/
But if you'd rather step to her let me just make it clear/
Them hands inspire the repentance of an auctioneer (damage)/
To know her is to speak to a mountain directly (bandage)/
Smear her name and she'll teach you to pronounce it correctly/
A Florida-Georgia butter pecan/
Be singing to her babies over heavens guitar like/
HOOK
OUTRO
Now everybody stands at applause
/
She complete every mission to the standard of God/
And defeated the impossible, a wizard of odds/
This the anthem for the one who caused the planet to pause/
