Mama’s (Dope) Boy

Mama’s (Dope) Boy
I’m filled with disgust and shame, being overcome by a feeling of urgency
We fallin’ and we can’t get up, this here is an emergency
I gotta make it, I’m tired of mama writhing from pain in her feet
We gon’ survive mama, even if I gotta hit the street…
And sell this dope, even if it’s just a little at a time
I’m movin’ these units in order to give my mama peace of mind
I tried to take the standard route, and went looking for work
They’d say “Oh I love your resume” but still treat me like a jerk
But I’m tryin’ to live, so I’d settle for low waged demeaning jobs
Doing odds and ends and come home looking like a slob
But fuck that, I’m on the grind now…I work independently
I’ll set my own hours and I’ll be my own fuckin’ entity
After deep introspection, I can now slowly begin to see
The pressure’s all on my back, my family’s future depends on me
So I spend my late nights cooking up the product to distribute
My mama has needs and it hurts me not to contribute
It’s time to execute the plan and get up on the right track
Give the fiends just what they need, and I know they’ll be right back
So much determination, I got a hustle and drive about me
I got it for cheap, I give ‘em five if they pay for about three
I gotta push it ’til the wheels fall off, there’s no such thing as excess
Sellin’ dope until I have enough to change my mama’s address
I wonder which one will sell quicker, the written words or the photography
I guess it really doesn’t matter, because nobody is stoppin’ me
I was down on my luck and needed something to cope, boy
Slowly slipping
I thought that I had reached the end of my rope, boy
I cooked up an answer and now I’m feeling some hope, boy
Doin’ what I gotta do for me and her, I’m my mama’s dope boy.
