I'LL ALWAYS LOVE MY MAMA ©

del.icio.us

FIRST OFF, THANK YOU! I WANT TO SHOW SOME GRATITUDE/
YOUR UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IS WHAT GENERATES THIS ATTITUDE/
EVEN AFTER ALL THE TIMES WE MIGHT'VE SAID "I'M MAD AT YOU!"/
YOUR SOOTHIN VOICE STILL TAKES US TO HIGHER ALTITUDES/
OUR BOND IS THE KIND THAT MAKES SIGNIFICANT OTHERS JEALOUS/
MAYBE IT'S 'CAUSE THEY CAN'T MATCH ALL THE GOOD ADVICE YOU TELL US/
SCHOOLED US ON THE RULES TO THE HARD KNOCK LIFE & NOT TO HATE IT/
AND MADE IT YOUR DUTY TO BE THERE WHEN I GRADUATED/
TAUGHT US LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT & ALL THINGS WORK FOR THE GREATER/
YOU SAID EVERY DAY'S A GIFT & EVERY ONE SHOULD BE CELEBRATED/
LIFE IS YOURS, TAKE IT! AND HELP WE NEEDED YOU GAVE IT/
FOR REAL, YOUR VOICE MAKES ME SMILE JUST LIKE A NATURAL FACELIFT/
IF IT'S ALL I DO I'LL MAKE SURE YOU FEEL APPRECIATED/
DEAR MAMA, I MEAN IT AS MUCH AS WHEN WE HEARD TUPAC SAY IT/
MY 1ST LOVE, YOU SET THE STANDARD FOR MY WIFE/
YOU GAVE ME LIFE, AND SHOWED ME THE LIGHT/
MADE EVERY DAY WORTHWHILE, YOUR SMILE IS JUST THAT BRIGHT/
FOR HER TO LIVE 1 YEAR LONGER I'D GIVE UP 2 OF MINE/
YOU'D BE A "MAMA'S-BOY" TOO IF YOUR MOM'S FACE RIVALED SUNSHINE/
SHE EVEN SPANKED MY BEHIND IN CASE I DIDN'T ACT-RIGHT/
BUT ALL IT TOOK WAS A "MAMA-LOOK" MOST OF THE TIME/
THAT WAS THE ONLY WEAPON YOU NEEDED TO KEEP US IN LINE/
IF SOMEONE WOULD TEACH ME TO SAVE ME FROM THIS MONOTONY/
IT WAS NEVER PROBABLY, I WAS SURE MY MOMMY'D BE/
THE ONE WHO WOULD BE GUIDING ME UP OUT OF HYPOCRISY/
AND THE MAN I'VE BECOME TO BE IS BECAUSE OF HER UNDOUBTEDLY/
YOU SANG ME MELODIES & SENT ME POSITIVE ENERGY/
BEFORE I KNEW THAT ANYONE COULD EVER HAVE ENEMIES/
YOU WOULD MASSAGE MY BODY THROUGH YOUR BELLY/
I ALWAYS KNEW I WAS LOVED FROM THE WORDS THAT YOU WOULD TELL ME/
I WAS BORN INTO WEALTH & I NEVER EARNED A PENNY/
I DIDN'T HAVE TO BECAUSE GRACE, YOU HAD PLENTY/
AT NOON PEANUT BUTTER JELLY AT DINNERTIME SPAGHETTI/
THROUGH SELFLESS GESTURES I CAME TO KNOW MY MOTHER, SHELLY/
YOUR KISS ON MY CHEEK IS LIKE A GENTLE AUTUMN BREEZE/
TRULY LOVED, MOMMY YOU SHALL FOREVER BE/
THE COSMOS FAIRLY COMPARE TO HER PULCHRITUDE/
AND THE LOVE THAT SHE SHARES ALWAYS PUTS US IN BETTER MOODS/
I WAS A RUDE YOUTH, AT TIMES A FOOLISH DUDE/
DISRESPECTING A QUEEN, I SHOULD'VE BEEN THROWN TO THE WOLVES/
CHANGING BABIES' BOTTOMS WIPING OFF THE POOH-POOH/
APPLYING BANDAGES & KISSING ALL OF MY BOO-BOO'S/
THIS IS UNFAIR, GOD KNOWS WE CAN'T REPAY YOU/
WELL, LORD, I GUESS I'LL JUST SAY THANK YOU FOR THIS ANGEL/
SHE'S A SHINING STAR, LIKE A WELL POLISHED JEWEL/
A DIAMOND LIVING RIGHTEOUSLY IN THIS GROWING WORLD OF FOOLS/
YOU NULLIFIED FEARS & WIPED THE TEARS FROM MY EYES/
BECAUSE YOU GIVE OUT REAL LOVE LIKE MARY J. BLIGE/
FROM CLEANING MY CUTS TO BEATING MY BUTT/
I FELT TRUE LOVE EVEN THOUGH IT CAN'T BE SEEN OR TOUCHED/
FLOWERS & CANDY DON'T SAY ENOUGH FOR HOW WE FEEL/
PAYING YOU MILLIONS FOR YOUR SERVICE IS STILL GETTING A DEAL/
I COULD GO ON FOREVER, ALTHOUGH I THINK I'LL END IT HERE/
BUT HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
