Dear Momma
• Written by KatV
KatV's Notes
Just focusing on channeling all my energy on being raw and real. This is the lyrical version of what I'll hopefully show/talk to my mom about...eventually. Feedback?
//Chorus:
Momma I'm gonna tell you the truth
Momma I'm sorry about my moods being blue
Hope things improve just listen to my views
Don't interrupt me don't immediately refuse
//Verse 1:
Once upon a time there was this guy
He had me feeling so fly, feeling sky high
He was there when I needed to cry
Except sin slipped in and you asked why
How long has this been going on?
Are you pregnant? Smoking that jawn?
Mommy I wish I was joking...I'm choking
Hoping you still love me, visiting hours closing
You were so angry with my hypocrisy I was crazy
It wasn't even funny you looked ready to punch me
Snapped at me to handle it on my own probably
Feeling like this is scary, but you weren't worried for me
At least that's how it seemed, 1 year later am I redeemed?
You said so yourself you were more angry with me like a beast
Over my sin with him than me wanting to die that's my defeat
The hardest thing to write and face and momma I'm feeling weak
//Chorus:
Momma I'm gonna tell you the truth
Momma I'm sorry about my moods being blue
Hope things improve just listen to my views
Don't interrupt me don't immediately refuse
//Verse 2:
It's been 52+ weeks, so sometimes we talk it out now
You had me walking out on pain a plenty but I'll ask how
Separating us for so long, barring any contact does good wow
Momma he did wrong, but I miss him it's jarring wish you'd allow
Allow some contact cuz I wish he could come back fast
I've grown stronger if he touches me like that (smack) he'll get cracked
Just hope he's wiser knows he'll never get Jack, no lap dance
Keep it in his pants yeah I'm believing that despite the tough crap
Hey momma, he's not like Bill that jerk I promise
He's not heartless he won't hurt me like him cause'
He's got Jesus he's not abusive like my birth daddy
He's not sneaky, maybe just my kind of creepy not crafty
Remember what you see ain't what's always real
Bet that letter had your mind spinning like a ferris wheel
I'm reliving memories like a movie reel, wishing we were real
I'm sorry you won't change how I feel it's for real no deal
//Chorus:
Momma I'm gonna tell you the truth
Momma I'm sorry about my moods being blue
Hope things improve just listen to my views
Don't interrupt me don't immediately refuse
//Verse 3:
Hoping you accept this and my choices
This decision ain't wreckless, ain't foolish
Wish I could be true, say that I miss more than 1 Smith
His momma, brother, sista, poppa too don't dismiss
They're gone too along with my old crew forced to stop
Can't hang if he's there and you say it's not your fault
Both know you won't go to court over a boy give me some support
Not asking for an award just don't want to be ignored
Maybe we could start off civil, something simple
This pain is personal I'm wishing for a little signal
Show me a symbol I'm done being fickle, being sinful
Just being lyrical try not to be too cynical, critical
Dear momma: I still love him, he's changed in God he's remade
What we have we can't erase, but God forgave our mistakes
That boy didn't cause failing grades rather took away headaches
Through the painful aches and life's earthquakes keep it straight
//Outro:
Mommy it's me! I'm still your little girl without a doubt
Do you see me now? Are you willing to hear me out?
I really love you mommy! But I'll be real and say I love him too
