Ooh ah ah
Dear mama, dear mama

Dear mama
Remember what I said last summer?
I'm always gon' be someone that loves ya
You'll always be covered

Dear mama
I found a house down south with my brothers
Your boy's always been filled with wonder
I'm not like the others

You told me I had a year
Future never was clear
Sat at the desk that you bought me
And then I stained it with tears
But I'm alright
We had hard nights

Never asked you for nothing
'Cause I never felt good at something
I can never speak my mind
It felt better when I just sung it
And you knew that
I can't lose that

I was stuck inside my bubble
The gift that you gave me mama
It kept me outta trouble
I made the most in the family
So now we never have to struggle
But I promise you I'll still remain humble

Where would I be without that, boy from Texas
Who made sure I was okay and kept all my connections
You'll always be my secret weapon
You'll always be there in a second

And to my brother with no mother
I will always be your family
'Cause in the end we got each other
Just know we always got each other

My long-haired friend that's from the north
You turned me to a person that I never was before
Don't have no siblings but you treat me like I'm yours
Nights in the city that'd we smile and explore

And to the girl that has my heart
An overthinker you were skeptic from the start
I'm glad to have you on my arm
I hope I never cause you harm

And the man from Long Island
Those long nights that we had we still fighting
We gon' always stay shining

Dear mama
Remember what I said last summer?
I'm always gon' be someone that loves ya
You'll always be covered

Dear mama
