Mama

mama tried to make me see
the future right in front of me

should have listened good
should have payed attention to her words

mama can you help me get my life back
my dignity and my pride
tell me to face
these challenges I made

should have listened good
should have payed attention to her words

mama
I should have listened like you said
never should have gone that way
the road that led me astray

should have listened good
should have payed attention to her words

mama
can you help me save myself
from all this pain

mama
can you help me get my life back in place
i can't keep playing all these stupid games
i wanna be like you

should have listened good
should have payed attention to her words

mama tried to make me see
the future
right in front of
me.
