Mom Praying Lyrics - The Reason - Beanie Sigel

"Oooh..." 

I just hear mom praying, I just hear gran sayin... 

"Somebody oughta just, reach out and, help me..." 

Eight decades and four years and gran still kickin 

Look at ma, still whippin 

Still keep a strap, won't hesitate to give the kids whippins 

Tryin to make it to heaven, still livin 

Make a visit, stop by the weed spot grab a dub 

I know grams gon' have me a grub 

I hit the front door, smell aroma of her food cookin 

My favorite, a pot of rice and her stewed chicken 

Hit the basement, holla at Uncle Doc 

Nephew, wit Snu kickin 

Where dudes, what's your new mission 

We bust it up he cold frontin 

I know this nigga wanna hold somethin 

I know grams upstairs preppin for church 

Matchin up her hat, shoes, pocketbooks and skirts 

I break her off some dubs, so she can go see the preacher man 

Even though I know he false teachin, damn

"Ooooh..." 

All I hear is grams prayin, I keep hearin moms sayin, shit 

"Somebody oughta just, reach out and, help me..." 

That's all I hear is moms prayin, I keep hearin grams sayin... 

"Somebody oughta just reach out and, help me..." 

Don't cry mama, your baby boy done weathered the storm 

And I found peace right here in your arms 

By the way, how you gettin along, huh? 

I know it's been tough bearing the pain since daddy's been gone 

But, all in all, you still stood tall and never shedded a tear 

I'm thankin God you still here 

Cause, only heaven knows all my heartaches and setbacks 

Goin from a high school dropout to shovelin wet wax 

I'm never gon' forget that, look in your eyes, (look in your eyes) 

When you told me that my grandfather died 

It was like nothing had happened, (naw) and I'm knowin that you miss him 

But to accept death, is just the side of a good Christian 

And I miss him, just words, and I lived it in life (lived it in life) 

and I take it step by step, but I take it in Christ (take it in Christ) 

Cuz I'm knowin I can't make it alone (uh, uh) 

You told me not to buy you a new house because in heaven's your home 

and as hurt as I was, I had to smile witcha 

and thank God that we crossed paths cuz you one strong sister 

and I'm never gon' forget ya 

Heaven sent us an angel and the world gon' miss ya... mama

I'm in love with two women 

The one that birth me 

and the one that birth her 

Know that you gotta hurt me 

Before you hurt her or hurt her 

Or hurt them or hurt we 

I cursed see the worsest death 

Beat you niggas to a thirsest breath 

Off wit ya head niggas, fuck that all purpose vest 

I'm ridin all out for Umi 

Christian Caffer, though I follow the path of the sumi 

What can I do but bow down and give offerings 

For the lady with the softest skin 

Keep picturin grams tuckin me in 

Breakin me out of her change purse 

Slash teacher, slash preacher, slash changed nurse 

One woman, ten boys, seven daughters 

Three story house wit no supporter 

Damn, you wanna get your life in order 

Words from the oldest boy of your youngest daughter
