Today my mama losin a son
He can’t scream, can’t scream, he has no breath and no lungs
She watched the sun come up with no sun rays
At the end of the road, there’s only one way…
I open my eyes and look at the seconds
I mean the clock, stretch out my arm to the beepin direction
And turn it off, yeah it’s about a quarter to seven
and I’m feeling the kind of high thatd make them jealous in heaven
so many scratches on my back you can call it a record
and all the twists I left in hers, now she’s walkin dyslexic
Ha ha, I turn over just to give her a kiss
But my mood shifts when I see her face is a ditch
full of tears and comin from the girl I love
I’ve got to say, instantly,I’m feelin all messed up
I’m like, “babigurl whats goin on”
She says “that’s the problem, that’s the problem, everything is goin on
everything is goin on, wishin I could turn it off
Extra weight is stackin on me,wishin I could burn it off
took that piss up on that test” then she, she just paused
I asked, “you pregnant ma’?”…she said “I was…”
He can’t scream, can’t scream, he has no breath and no lungs
She watched the sun come up with no sun rays
At the end of the road, there’s only one way…
I sprung up like “what the fuck you mean was
How the hell you kill sumthin that belonged to both of us
How the hell you gon do it without hollerin at ya man first
I’m ya boyfriend yah, but a man first”
I punch the wall till my hand hurts
Feelin like Planters, trying not to slam her
tryna understand her, but feelin like cancer
damn, the glance she gives me is a hammer
hard, she jumps on me and starts beating my chest
I grab her quicker than she can catch a reflex
Then she catches her breath and really gets rowdy
“How you gon tell me what to do with my body, huh?
Want me to sex you when I’m not ina mood
But I call just to talk, you actin like you not in the mood?
Plus we, we still in school, so tell me how the hell
we gon raise a baby, bein babies ourselves”
He can’t scream, can’t scream, he has no breath and no lungs
She watched the sun come up with no sun rays
At the end of the road, there’s only one way…Tears begin bluring my vision of rights and wrong
She said, “ya mama did alone” I said “true”
“But I love you girl”, she said “bet she heard that too
Baby, words is cool”, told her to chill that drama
Cuz “I’m not my father”, she said “I’m not YOUR mama”
I said, “responsibility a man manages it”
And she told me “a real woman knows when she can’t handle it
and damn it understand it, if I’m wrong I’m wrong
Yah I’m feelin damaged, but I’ll just mourn and move on
and if i’m mournin every night and caught up in it daily
I’ll still feel it was best for me, you and the baby”
My lady breaks down, I’m mad, but still holding her closer
Still feelin fucked up, messed up my head is
Her cryin stops and the only thing she says is…
Today my mama losin a son
He can’t scream, can’t scream, he has no breath and no lungs
She watched the sun come up with no sun rays
At the end of the road, there’s only one way…
