Mama Blue... I know you... Know how you feel... when Brothers... get Killed... Mama Blue... I know you... Tired and Weary... and Your Eyes get Teary... Mama Blue... I know you... Seen too Many Babies... Dying like Crazy...


V.1
Came from the Womb Son of Mis-Anthropy... alone in my Room... I write this song for Mrs Anthony...

Same Sista... Philly dissed ya... Homeys from the Hood only ones Felt the Pain witcha...

Yea it’s Kina Strange... Bein Black never Changed... way Back we was Chained... these days we Sellin Caine... or on a Chain Gang...

Only thang ReMains... is a Nation Lost... dead bodies on the Side Walk... facin Oppression... and We Stressin...

Penitentiaries and DePression... and we Prayin for a Blessin... look at all the Hell we been Catchin... a lil Introspection...

Stare at our ReFlection... Black and we Glarin at our own Complexion... State Elections got us goin to Corrections...





Mama Blue... I know you... Know how you feel... when Brothers... get Killed... Mama Blue... I know you... Tired and Weary... and Your Eyes get Teary... Mama Blue... I know you... Seen too Many Babies... Dying like Crazy...

Under Surveillance... Jailin in the Neighborhood... Convicted Felon and they Say I never mean Good...





V.2
For all my Black Queens... yea I understood when you married you a PeckerWood...holla if you Still Black...

Still thinkin of me when your Hubby got you Flat Back... naaa I don’t feel Shitty cuz I sold Sacks...

But every Guy that Pissed on Ya... I apologize for Every guy that put a Fist on Ya...

Screwin up the Whole Block... for every Son of yours We had Sellin Ready Rock...

Sorry bout the Drama... every Tear we left a Black mama... Drugs on the Block... got the Thugs... and the Feds and the Cops...

And the HillBillies... givin you a Life Sentence tryin to Raise a Black Kid... where all the Black Men... sittin in the Pen... cuz the Streets is Her Cell Block and She ain’t on a Crack Binge...



Mama Blue... I know you... Know how you feel... when Brothers... get Killed... Mama Blue... I know you... Tired and Weary... and Your Eyes get Teary... Mama Blue... I know you... Seen too Many Babies... Dying like Crazy...
