Grandma Pt Ii Lyrics - The American Dream - Mike Jones

Ohhh grandma (MIKE JONES! Who?) 

DJ Slice, tear me up baby, tear me up 

This heah for my grandma mayne 

I love you baby 

The whole family miss you baby 

I'm fin' ta tell the world, how important you was to me 

 

[Chorus: Mike Jones] 

Ohhh grandma, I miss you 

and wish I could kiss you and hug you girl 

Ohhh grandma, I miss you 

and wish I could kiss you and hug you girl 

The way you used to hold me - the way you used to hold me 

The way you used to show me - the way you used to show me 

Befo' you left you told me - befo' you left you told me 

That I was gonna have to keep the family up 

(Mike Jones!) 

 

[Mike Jones] 

April 14th was when, I felt I lost a friend 

I damn near stopped rappin, damn near stopped pimpin pens 

Cousin locked in the pen, when will this drama end 

I get success but it feels like my stress begins 

At 17 thought I was grown, had to move on 

Moved out T. Jones home, had to do this on my own 

My grandma left my life, I felt it wasn't right 

I get awards and I break down and I cry on sight 

Cause she ain't here with me, but I know she hearin me 

Beg and plead, that she could still be here next to me 

Even though you passed and left, yo' memories are kept 

In my mind, heart, and soul - even on my shelf 

Now I'm left with cousin Shelly, Jessie, and they real, and Gary 

(?) and my brother, Uncle June, and my mother and 

even though sometimes I get too busy to touch you 

From me to y'all I want y'all to know I love you 

 

[Chorus] 

 

[Mike Jones] 

Grandma remember when we used to play them bones and you would skunk us 

And you never had a problem punkin us in front of company 

Wally just had a son - he's a daddy, I'ma uncle now 

Wally just had a son - he's a daddy, I'ma uncle now 

Latran playin ball, I pray to God he goes pro 

And Gary Jr. gettin bigger, I just thought I'd let you know 

that the family's okay, everythang's cool and straight 

Juanita and Nicky just told me to tell you they said hey 

And I pray day to day that the Lord'll pave the way 

And you keep lookin down here just smilin, just showin ya pretty face 

And I still hang around my homies that you see while you were here 

Oh and my girl better than ever, she too wish you was here 

You know I'm grown now, so I'm puttin food on the table 

24 years old and I got my own label 

Ice Age Entertainment, we about to take it over 

T. Boy rappin now - he's Mellow, and Wally is Lil' Soldier 

(?) still rolls with me, we close shoulder to shoulder 

That gator that you gave my granny I use it to sew the game up 

Me and (?) was partners, we both now CEO's 

It's all good but I wish you was able to see me grow 

 

[Chorus] 

 

[Mike Jones] 

Man, it's crazy, y'knahmsayin? 

Dis the main reason here, she the main reason why.. 

.. y'all listenin to me today, y'knahmsayin? 

True story check it out, true story 

A lot of people always used to wonder how I got up in the game 

Y'knahmsayin? My grandma was, 99.9 percent of the reason y'knahmsayin? 

It's crazy though, I mean, I used to go to strip clubs all the time and 

try to get people to listen to my CD, you know? 

And they be like who are you? And I'm like "Mike Jones" 

And they'd be like WHO, y'knahmsayin? 

And I used to always tell my grandma and she used to always tell me 

to use that, y'knahmsayin? Cause they gon' regret what they did to me 

Y'knahmsayin? So I started usin it, and it worked, y'knahmsayin? 

And.. it's it's just crazy mayne y'know? 

I started sayin my name a lot - y'knahmsayin? 

I started givin my phone number out - y'knahmsayin? 

When people was tellin me that it wasn't gon' work 

My grandma was tellin me to do it, y'knahmsayin? 

She told she seen a vision and, that's a hell of a vision y'knahmsayin? 

And.. really I started givin out my album, I started promotin it and 

all the stuff that y'all been hearin me do, I got it from her 

Y'knahmsayin? And and that's the main reason, why I'm here today 

Y'knahmsayin? And and it's crazy man, it's crazy y'know 

I'm I'm I'm here and y'all listenin to me, y'know 

So I never woulda ever thought.. 

..that I'd have the whole world listenin to Mike Jones, man, it's crazy man 

I didn't even wanna use my real name, y'know? 

But grandma was like, boy you better use that name 

It's gon' blow you up one day, y'knahmsayin? 

And I was like man you don't know what'chu talkin about 

And now I'm here, "Who is Mike Jones?" 

Holla at'cha boy..
