TRIBUTE TO MOMMA - THE NEW MOTHERS' ANTHEM

Click on the highlighted word "Momma" to hear the song.

(Sing)

Momma, you are everything

In my life

You have always loved me so

I thank God, He has shown me love

Cause you're here

You're the one who let me know, oh

(1st Rap)

Please believe me

The first woman came from a man

But every since then

Every man comes from a woman

Suited to make life picture perfect

Like your Polaroid picture, won't your smile for me

Look how strong you were made to be

My Momma was my mammy

And my Daddy raised me the best I could be

Believed in me when no one believed in me

Gave me strength when I was weak

Some things you did didn't make sense to me

But I didn't know what making sense could be

My life was up and down

Like a roller coaster she taught me to hold on and let the Lord coast us

The things that she preached I had to take to the heart

True wisdom, adding years to my life

Your more than human you're like a star up above

Heaven must be missing an Angel

(Chorus)

Momma, you are everything

In my life

You have always loved me so

I thank God

He has shown me love

Cause you're here

You're the one who let me know, oh

(2nd Rap)

1980, a lady birthed a 7 lb baby

In the book Titus 3:12, that first name she gave me

She was both my guardian; my angel watching over me close

No argument - she gave love, Sista Souljah!

A woman can't show her son how to be a man, but she molded me

My living single mothers, accustomed to even being fathers

I experienced abandonment, I can relate Momma

She taught her young man, Aretha Franklin, RESPECT, All women!

It's your smile, your smooth "Sade" voice

Persona portrays an angel in rejoice

Diamonds, her best friends

Kids, her world

This man made world can't turn without the girl

Excuse me, I mean woman

She'll make your darker days become sunny

And show you how love means more than money

(Chorus)

Now I understand it, oh

Just how much my mother cared

It's just the way God planned it, oh

If you could only know my feelings

You would know how much I truly need

You in my life, my life

Momma, I need you in my life

Momma, you are everything

In my life

You're the one who love me so

I thank God

He has shown me love

Cause you're here

You're the one who let me know, oh

Momma, you are everything
