Mama Said (Remix)
[Verse 1]
My mama told me always to be patient
But she knew me better thing that I'd get tired of waiting
Show me the door
I know that I can find a way
I would call it a major key
Yeah Yeah
Nobody understand me
Mama was always right there to support me just like a bra or pantie
She would never let nobody put me down
Some come go never stay
They disappear like time off MySpace
[Chorus]
Mama said it's okay
Mama said that it was quite alright
Our kind of people had a bed for the night
And it was ok
Mama told us we were good kids
And daddy told us never listen to the ones
Pointing nasty fingers and making fun
Cause we were good kids
[Verse 2]
Life was weighing heavy on me
You could say that I felt like the biggest loser
Moving from place to place to different homes
Moving more than Ubers
Moving I'm moving it I'm feeling it like it would never end
Movin back in the same house like I was Hillary Clinton, I know
I look in my past and Im saying thank you mom
Bringing my old memories to my present like Pokémon
You mess with her child
Mama gon knock you out
[Chorus]
Mama said it was okay
Mama said that it was quite alright
Our kind of people had a bed for the night
And it was ok
Mama told us we were good kids
And daddy told us never listen to the ones
Pointing nasty fingers and making fun
Cause we were good kids
[Bridge]
Mama said it's okay
Mama said it's okay
Mama said it's okay
Mama said it's okay
[Verse 3]
There's so many things
You gave to me
You told me to be me
I used to look out the window
Just dying that you know
That I would be the living weirdo
You set me free, free
[Chorus]
Mama said that it was okay
Mama said that it was quite alright
Our kind of people had a bed for the night
And it was ok
Mama told us we were good kids
And daddy told us never listen to the ones
Pointing nasty fingers and making fun
Cause we were good kids
