Mama Knows (feat. Young Yousef)

If mama proud, then I can't complain Still got her doubts, but ain't losin' faith Bustin' my ass until she could relax And live comfortably Peepin' the smiles, knowin' they're fake Niggas are clowns, movin' like lames Doin' my best to stand out from the rest They stand under me Fuck all the crowds, shit's all the same Got my own sound, surfin' my wave Into the light— I'm immortal tonight Like how Cudi be Up in the clouds, findin' my way Gone off the loud, straight to the face Shit's mandatory while tellin' a story so lovely It's right, it's right, it's right Cloud 9, I'm taking flight Was lost inside the dark But I done found the light Told mama that I got this We gon' be alright I promise I promise that Linden made me, yeah you know where I'm at Tryna put that on the map All my girls already told me I'm tapped They just don't know that I'm tapped in Been on the road for so long Got me looking like How the fuck I done got stuck in the traffic? I can't lie like often times, I feel stagnant Then I go and write me a classic Shit, they know that the plan is to stack M's And I'm copping my mama a black Benz And they know that I love it in Linden But mama been tryna get the fuck out of Linden So I'ma just pay off the mortgage and buy her some other shit I don't know, like out in Aspen I'll be grinding 'til the boy in a casket And just know that I can't be mad if... If mama proud, then I can't complain Still got her doubts, but ain't losin' faith Bustin' my ass until she could relax And live comfortably Peepin' the smiles, knowin' they're fake Niggas are clowns, movin' like lames Doin' my best to stand out from the rest They stand under me Fuck all the crowds, shit's all the same Got my own sound, surfin' my wave Into the light— I'm immortal tonight Like how Cudi be Up in the clouds, findin' my way Gone off the loud, straight to the face Shit's mandatory while tellin' a story so lovely Writing a lovely story Know that this ink is my blood from the pain Fuck every nigga before me Watched them all sink in the flood that I drained Fuck their glory, shit doesn't remain Shit gets gory, yeah tons of remains I stayed sure, never comforted lames Just went for more, then the summit it came Mama knows Yeah, even way back when she used to attack me Then finally told me I gotta go Ain't overreact— strapped my Mac to my back Then I told my shorty "aye, vamanos" Just picture me frozen, left out in the open But this time a nigga ain't drown in the ocean A matter of fact, I was practically floatin' Yeah bitch, I'm soarin' now, steadily pourin' out All of my aura straight down to the audio I've been floorin' while stayin' on course with my stories I'm sure that you phonies gon' copy 'em But you'll always be corny ass novices No— you'll never be gorgeous, I promise ya You heard it from the source— on my mama yuh Comin' straight from the North— on my mama yuhhh If mama proud, then I can't complain Still got her doubts, but ain't losin' faith Bustin' my ass until she could relax And live comfortably Peepin' the smiles, knowin' they're fake Niggas are clowns, movin' like lames Doin' my best to stand out from the rest They stand under me Fuck all the crowds, shit's all the same Got my own sound, surfin' my wave Into the light— I'm immortal tonight Like how Cudi be Up in the clouds, findin' my way Gone off the loud, straight to the face Shit's mandatory while tellin' a story so lovely
