Lyrics
VERSE ONE:
You remember this one day, was a monday just like all the rest,
I went to school, we didn't even have a test.
But that day, Johnnie brought a gun to school,
he had to show his friends, that it was cool.
And when noone even tried to stop,
he pulled the trigger twice with some loud POPS.
Mama, I was a good boy, I did what I was told,
I went to school, got straight A's, but now all is getting cold.
But Mom, when I went to school that day, I never said good-bye,
I'm sorry Mama, I had to go, so please don't cry.
When Johnnie shot the gun, he hit me and another,
and all because of he stole it from his older brother.
Mama, please tell Daddy that I love him very much,
and tell my girlfriend that it was more than just a crush.
And tell my grandparents, I'll be visiting them now,
these things just happen, in case you're wondering how.
CHORUS:
Mama, what if I just died?
I wanted to live I really tried.
To do everything that could make you proud,
but what is that gonna help me now?
So mama, what if I just died?
But I know that I will reach the sky,
I never ever lied when I said I love you,
now when I'm up in here, I just wanna hug you.
VERSE TWO:
Mom, why did it have to happen, noone deserves this,
I feel bad, I just left, without even a kiss.
Tell the doctors I know they really did try,
I think I even saw a doctor, trying to keep his eyes dry.
But, Mom, please wipe your eye, and try not to cry,
so I'm about to say goodbye and simpley die.
But I heard they made reservations for me up in heaven,
I'll be having a good time 24/7.
Mom, I'm slowly dying with a bullet in my chest,
but please remember, I'm up in heaven, in the angles' nest.
You know when I heard the shot I ran fast down the track,
Mom, listen to me now, I'm not coming back.
I wanted to get married, though, I wanted to have a kid,
I wanted to be a rap-star, Mom, I really did.
I wanted to go to college, I really worked in my grade,
so when you hear me leave, don't let the memory fade.
CHORUS
VERSE THREE:
Everyone knows I'm a fighter so I struggled for a while,
even amazed the doctors, but it was hopeless, no denial.
Mom, what I would do right now just to see one smile,
I'd climb hundered of mountains, I would walk thousand miles.
But, Mom I must go now, time is getting late,
oh, and tell my girlfriend nicely why I had to cancel the date.
And tell all my friends that they always were the best,
Mama, I'm not the first, I'm no better than the rest.
Mama, tell my teachers, I won't show up for class,
and try to always make the memory of me last.
But it's your love that keeps me bound down here,
why don't you just let me go, cause I've got no fear.
I can't be here forever, I'm diminishing fast,
just like the smoke from that devastating gun-blast.
I love you Mama, I know you know that's true,
and all I wanted to say with this song is "Mom, I Love You"!
CHORUS
