The 17th was bittersweet Never knew how long the road would be You looked at me with urgency That you would love me unconditionally One eye to see and restless feet Raised hell every corner that I'd peek Oh, I was so unique The doctor said, "your boy's a mess" But every time you'd come to my defense I caused a wreck, the school suggested Maybe sending him off would be the best I got in check and fixed my head And we knew good things would be ahead Look at the life I led Now I'm singing, mama, mama, mama We've been through bullshit and drama Shouldn't really take much longer I'll say thank you for all the love you fostered Can't believe I caught up They all thought I was a goner Thanks for making me much stronger Couldn't have done it all without my mama Couldn't have done it all without you, mama
