Mamas ft. Jessie Davis Lyrics

Yea

This isn't a pot of gold it's a bowl of pasta

No one thought he would go to where no one thought of

Yea over by the water the ocean aqua

Floating in the open up out to Okinawa

I can see an adobe home and I know it's Saba

We came from broken homes no sober fathers

For the children with birthdays and no piñatas

I'ma hold it proper this is for our mamas

Lifting me up

Holding me down

She be lifting me up

Holding me down

Mama's lifting me up

Holding me down

She's been lifting me up

She be holding me down

Shout out to mother earth in my mother's womb

The first drum I heard was hers pumping through

She gave birth to two sons one was due

A man now but as a child who were you running to

Yea that's my mother and she held me close

The connection is telekinetic no celly phones

Nine months and you can tell by how the belly's grown

So much love that I couldn't tell if we was hella broke

A gemstone from the sea a shiny pearl

I love my mother more than this entire world

From Marina Del Ray to the eastern bay

Sunrise on the ocean go and seize the day

Yea matrilineal women will lead the way

The beauty way leap of faith dream awake

I believe that she's a goddess and I know she got us

I'ma hold it proper this is for our mamas

Lifting me up

Holding me down

Mama's lifting me up

Holding me down

Lifting me up

Holding me down

Mama's lifting me up

She be holding me down

Mellow mother earth I yell another verse

I'm dwelling in my words on an interstellar crush

No telling if it hurts but I can feel her worth

The conscience multiverse and a winter weather rush

Enter heaven's touch on a fellow brothers birth

And he will live in us as we're spelling out out what's hers

A bitter blessing blush as the center crescent clutch

Sentimental mush when my pen and pencil brush

Moments to memories of magical musements

Motions and melodies making maps with the music

She's my stronghold inside

We know that water is for life carry on I'll follow the tide

Note pads soul claps warmth of a goddess

Let your worries wash away when the storm is upon us

Heal from the trauma when she's pouring out lava

Got love for our fathers but do more for our mamas

Lifting me up

Holding me down

Mama's lifting me up

Holding me down

She be lifting me up

She be holding me down

My mama she lifts me up

Lifting me up

She be holding me down
