Mama Told Me Lyrics


Shigga Shay Mama Told Me


[Intro:]
This one goes out, to all the moms in the world
I consider them warriors
Chea!

[Hook:]
My mama told me, when I was young,
She'd sit beside me, 'my only son... '
And listen closely... to what I say
And if you do this... it'll help you, some sunny day

[Verse:]
When I was young, only you believed in my dreams
When they told me I wasn't the one, you still gave me self-esteem
I remember everything you said
When I was down with a fever, layin cold on the bed
I told you I was gonna represent Singapore
And now you holdin' down every single one of my metaphors
I cursed, I fought, I lied and cried
And if it wasn't for you, I probably woulda died
You single handedly turned me from trash to a pearl
A lady responsible for bringing me into the world
You were always there, when hope was forlorn
A day after 9/11 a star was born
You knew I was special so you told me to do it
Knewing that I was much more than marketed music
I would never forget what you've done for me
Cause without you, I wouldn't have a soul to breathe

[Hook:]
Oh take your time... don't learn too fast...
Troubles will come... and they will past...
You find a woman... and you'll find love...
And don't forget there is a someone... up above

[Verse:]
Whenever I fell you were always there to catch me
Fillin' my heart with love so it's never empty
The love you've given can't be described with a pen
I wouldn't mind livin life as your child again
You still stayed when I refused to even listen
There were days you worked late just to pay tuition
But my intuition told me you had a mission
You wrote me a bright future now I have a vision
Of the world in my palms, ya baby boy's all grown
Hugged me with open arms when I was all alone
There was a time I did real bad in school
You didn't give up even when they said I was a fool
With your love and support I know I gotta make it
Makin you proud cause I'm what you created
If I get signed I ma get you a home
I made this song cause I'm more comfortable speakin on tha microphone

[Hook:]
And get your lust, from a rich man's gold...
All that you need now... is in your soul...
And you can do this... if you try...
All that I want from you my son... is to be satisfied!
And be a simple... kind of man... and be something...
You love and understand... let it be a simple... kind of man...
Oh won't you do this all... if you can...

[Verse:]
Call me the human torch my rhymes on fire
My moms a warrior and pops is a cancer survivor
Didn't mind when 'I kissed a girl like 'Katy Perry'
Cause they say that I'm sweeter than Ben & Jerry's
You must be proud of the product you created
I work so hard yet they say I'm overrated
Don't tell me but show that's what mama told me
Hold me closely like a book then carefully unfold me
Whatever yo momma say you gotta pay attention
Cause her words probaby pay a king's ransom
If my hand is a gun, I got it cocked like Will Smith(Hancock)
I'm ma use it to protect even if my bones shift
I ain't gon follow my dreams I ma lead them with glory
My momma led a life you could read in a story
I owe you so much that I can't repay
Without you there wouldn't be no ShiGGa Shay!

[Hook:]
Oh don't you worry... you'll find yourself...
Follow your heart... and nothing else...
And you can do this... oh yeah... If you try...
All that I want from you my son... is to be satisfied!
And be a simple... kind of man... and be something...
You love and understand... let it be a simple... be a simpleman...
Oh won't you do this all... if you can...

{No one can scold me, that's what Mama Told me}
{Don't tell me but show me, that's what Mama Told me}
