歌词
Having conversations with mama, man my life is a mess
Ain't been returning the texts, so she been reading the press
和妈妈聊了一会 天呐 我的生活真是一团糟
She got google alerts, them shits go straight to her phone
也许太久没收到我的回信 所以她一直在读报纸
She worry bout me from home, you know she raised me alone
她收到了Google快讯 消息涌现在她的手机上
She said "I heard you back with you know who"
她开始在家担心我 你也知道 是她独自抚养我长大
她说 “听说你把Rihanna带回来了”
I told her "Girl I'm always back with you know who"
我说 “妈 确实是这样的”
她说 “你在逗我吗”
And she like "Who are we kidding"
“你才27岁 谈什么恋爱呢”
"You're only 27 you just being you"
“你简直跟你爸爸一样花心 还好有我把你养大”
"You're your fathers child man thank god you got some me in you"
确实是这样的
At least I always, at least I always see it through
至少我是听着你的金玉良言长大的
At least I'm always being true to what you taught me
退休的老师(妈妈)呀 你的一言一语教会了我做人
Retired teacher but your words still got me evolving
你教会了我不要喝太多 但有的事情只能以酒消愁
Never get sloppy drunk, but alcohol is problem solving
看着我越来越讨厌酒精 你也越来越讨厌我的女朋友
And look I hate it when you hate on all my girlfriends
你总认为我能找到个更好的女孩
And assistants always convinced that there's always someone better
比如那个健身房和你一起陪练的女孩
Like that girl from that gym who trains you
我知道 你想为我安排爱情 还告诉我那女孩周四有空
好的我信了 我相信那女孩就是你所说的天使 但她不想要这种生活
I know you wanna arrange it, you told me she's free thursday
她适应不了我这种快节奏生活
And I'm sure that she's a angel but she don't want this life
也许有一天 甚至只有她生命中短短的一天
The timing ain't right
我们会一起做音乐 赚钱
Maybe one day but even one day with us is a time of a life
你有一颗最甜的心 我真不是在假装赞美你
We do things that people pay to document
也不是为了提高你的信心 这是真心话 妈妈
You got the sweetest heart but I'm not here to give out compliments,
妈妈 我从不在说唱圈结交朋友
妈妈 我没有在骗你
or boost nobody confidence momma
妈妈 我真的不是开玩笑
妈妈 我真的想狠狠地报复那些背叛我的人
I got no friends in this momma
妈妈 就像Game of Thrones里面一样报复他们
I don't pretend with this momma
妈妈 就像Home Alone里面一样报复他们
I'on joke with this momma
我...
I pull the knife out my back and cut they throat with it momma
妈妈 我真的很讨厌用这种语气跟你说话
I'm "Game of Thrones" with it momma
妈妈 我真的不想对你这样气势汹汹地说话
I'm "Home Alone" with it momma
妈妈 我真的很讨厌他们浪费时间模仿我
I'm t-
妈妈 他们都在抄袭我
I really hate using this tone with you momma
妈妈 他们人人都想成为...
I really hate getting aggressive on this phone with you momma
妈妈 他们都想成为第二个Drake
I really hate wasting your time to check a clone or two momma
妈妈 我-我-我真的不能这么脆弱地任人抄袭
It's just they cloning me momma
妈妈 我的意思是 和别人合唱歌曲的时候 我们总能屠榜
Them niggas wannabes momma
妈妈 他们歌中的副歌全部由我来唱
Its like I'm the one they wanna be momma
妈妈 他们还想从我这奢求什么呢
I just- I- I can't be out here being vulnerable momma
呀哈 这真是疯狂的生活
I mean I kill em every time they do a song with me momma
但你和多伦多把我培养成了巨星
I sing a hook they sing along with me momma
“不要听取别人的建议” 这才是最好的建议
What more they want from me momma?
你和多伦多把我培养成了巨星 这拯救了我职业生涯
和妈妈聊了一会 我们开始谈起爸爸
Yeah, this is a crazy life
你也知道 他曾经发过一支单曲Kinda Crazy 他还说这是通往音乐世界之窗
他如今依然穿着亚麻布衣服 依然天天进出脱衣俱乐部
But you and the six raised me right
妈 重新打个电话吧 告诉爸爸 你依然爱着他
来自孟菲斯的爸爸是个真男人 妈 他爱死你了
"Don't ever take advice," that was great advice
他一生中犯下了许多错误 他依然不能接受自己犯下的错
You and the six raised me right, that shit saved my life
但他只想得到我们的原谅 只想了解我们母子俩如今的生活
我很满意于此 为什么我们不原谅他呢
Having conversations with momma, we start talkin' bout dad
我曾经到监狱看过他 我知道他的生活如何
You know he dropping a single, he saying this is his window
我也曾像他和他狱友一样 对着电话和他一起rap
That nigga still wearing linen, that nigga still in the club
现在我得了格莱美 很大一部分原因是有他的支持
Call him after we get off the phone and show him some love
我们相信他的诚意 让我们再打一次电话给他吧
That nigga memphis for real, girl he love you to death
你还记得我们在Weston Road, Scarlett Road的那段日子吗
He made mistakes throughout his life that he still doesn't accept
那时我和街头小混混Aaron Bell、Reny一起游走贫民窟
But he just want our forgiveness, and fuck it look how we living
爸爸总是担心我和他们学坏
I'm content with this story, who are we not to forgive him?
他从不让我沾染毒品
At least I been to a prison, at least I know what it's like
他甚至给我一把枪帮我自卫 但那里人人都有枪
I used to rap on the phone, one of his friends doing life
他让我从小接受他的灵魂乐老歌的熏陶
And now I got me a Grammy, that could be part of the reason
那是爸爸经历过风风雨雨后才写出来的歌
Let's just call this shit even, we got some things to believe in
过去我常常因为自己的黑人身份而被取笑
Do you remember back to Weston Road, Scarlett Road?
你们都说我的rap没故事 不黑暗
因为我经历的就是不多 我在用平淡亲身经历写歌 从不编造自己在家乡的黑帮生活
Hangin' with Aaron Bell and Reny shit could've gone
妈妈 但如今我有钱到天天卷大麻 我就像滚石乐队一样传奇
south for me he looked out for me ma
妈妈 我谨慎地接受滚石杂志的采访 人人都嫉妒我 想对我扔石头
He never let me do drugs
妈妈 我不会宽恕任何可恨的人
He let me shoot a gun one summer but out there everyone does
妈妈 我为你建一座豪宅 他们也不会留下感动的泪水
He made me listen to his music, old music, soul music
妈妈 我知道我打给你们的电话还不够多
Shit that can only be created if you go through it
妈妈 我已经尽力腾出了工作时间来陪你们
I used to get teased for being black, and now I'm here and
我的高强度工作让我付出了代价 陪你们的时间变得越来越少
I'm not black enough
你们和多伦多把我培养成了巨星 这拯救了我人生
Cause I'm not acting tough or making stories up bout where I'm actually from
But I just roll with it momma, rolling stone with it momma
Gotta be careful around rolling stones or anyone that's tryna throw stones at me momma
I'm not condoning it momma
They will not tear nothing down I built this home for you momma
Know I don't call enough momma
I just been working with so little time for personal momma
Hard labor let me pay the price
You and the six raised me right that shit saved my life
