[Intro]

[Jacob Latimore]
Every time I look in my mom I see her dilemma
I'm the one thing standing between her and being a winner
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

[Nas]
Yo, I feel you
When a mother bestows a name on a child
It reveals her hope
Mine named me Isaiah
Like the prophet
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child

[Jacob Latimore]
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Right now I feel like a motherless child
A long way from home
A long way from my home

[Nas]
My holidays are hollow days
With memories of my mamas face
I could see her now
Looking at me she smiles
But sometimes I feel like a motherless child
[Jacob Latimore]
Mama said she’d never leave, (motherless child)
And that she always be there for me, (motherless child)

Where are you now? (motherless child)

A long way from home
A long way from my home
