Wake up Wake up mama Early morning Monday Start of the week Squirrel grinding for her money 'Nother nut in her cheek You don't have the funds babe Day on repeat So you call up on your daddy Give you something to eat Trading self respect That's the price that you pay Giving him release Tell yourself it's okay Selling him affection He says it feels nice Giving up your body Made you colder than ice You have to get through it Bills all late again Making many desperate choices With many desperate men Rinse off all the makeup The mask that your wear Had to wash yourself twice To get that smell out your hair Read a bedtime story Woman saved by the prince Like the ones that little girl Hasn't believed in since Tears soaking your pillow Wonder why they all seem To have the grass that is greener Realizing all they dreams Wake up on a Tuesday It is what it is Seeking an arrangement Provide for your kids You don't have the patience To work a nine to five To put bread up on the table Barely enough to survive Wake up Wake up mama Wake up Wake up mama Wish you didn't need to Put your face on again Giving up your morals Wipe the mess off your chin Back up at the table Unnegotiable terms Hoping he won't hurt you Can't afford the rug burns Crying in the shower Roll of ones in your bank You promised you'd give up When he filled up your tank Wake up on Wednesday More of the same Barely answer how your day was Cowering in shame You love them too dearly To let them know that Mama traded all her virtue Riding on a strangers lap You decide to tell them 'Bout your big plans to come You're Moving out the city Where their safe without guns Tuck them in softly Kiss them both on they head If you don't leave the game Gonna end up with you dead Thursday and Friday Come and they pass Two more nights in the club Throwing ones on your ass Today is the weekend And your promise to stay Is easily broken 'Nother visit to pay Call up on the sitter Tell them the deal Just need a couple hours Kids both had they meal Wake up Wake up mama Wake up Wake up mama Open your eyes bitch Though you had your reservations Seemed really sweet Started feeling dizzy Legs suddenly weak Your vision is blurry You wish it weren't true They each taking turns While he laughs with his crew Consciously violated Begging them to stop Hand covering your mouth Whispers that he is a cop Now you're barely breathing Try your best to pretend Sitting in their bedroom Just a quiet weekend Light fades from your vision Crawling in your cave It's the first time that you wonder Am I headed to my grave They all lose interest Since there's blood on your lip Throw a few bucks beside you Bitch enjoy the tip Wake up Wake up mama Wake up Wake up mama Gather all your belongings Blood stained and torn Haven't felt this much pain Since your babies were born You come home to greet them They're both sound asleep She asks if your okay Barely standing on your feet She's calling the police But you tell her that it's fine obvious she's not buying She can tell that your lying In a couple more hours The new week begins Ask god for forgiveness From all of your carnal sins But there is no answer Just the pain in your head You're lucky that tonight Didn't end up with you dead Wake up on Monday Cover up your black eye Dream about a better future With a nice guy But the rent is due on Tuesday You're a few hundred short Tell yourself that you won't do it It's your last resort Wake up wake up mama Wake up wake up mama Wake up wake up mama
