Songtexte: Warren G. I Want It All. My Momma.

Yo, I wanna take this time out to dedicate this song
To one of the most beautiful ladies in the world
Could never imagine
Yeah, Ole Mae, that's my momma, y'know
To one of the most beautifulest ladies in the world
I love ya, momma, keep it strong for ya

My momma used to tell me quit smoking weed
My momma gave me everything that I need
My momma said, "Keep faith in God"
My momma, momma, momma, momma, momma

My momma used to tell me quit smoking weed
My momma gave me everything that I need
My momma said, "Keep faith in God"
My momma, momma, momma, momma, momma

From the beginning, soon as my feet touched the earth
For what it's worth, she loved the boy from birth
Kept me fed, combed my head
And tapped that tail when I didn't do what she said

Through the years comin' up, momma always provided
And when the times got rough, momma always tried to hide it
Divide it among us but pardon the youngsters
Told us never to lie, smoke dope and cuss

She stood tall and proud like a supermodel on a catwalk
And momma didn't take no back talk
She's the main reason why I roll today
That's why I dedicate this to Ole Mae, that's my momma

My momma used to tell me quit smoking weed
My momma gave me everything that I need
My momma said, "Keep faith in God"
My momma, momma, momma, momma, momma

My momma used to tell me quit smoking weed
My momma gave me everything that I need
My momma said, "Keep faith in God"
My momma, momma, momma, momma, momma

As a young teenager I started to clown
My momma did all she could to try to slow me down
Tired of her son bein' brought home by the cops
Sent to go stay with my pops

He taught me to be my own man and when I disrespected
He put me out on the streets to find my own land
Now I'm servin' on the urban street corner
Smokin' bud, sippin' Coronas in Long Beach, California

But I promised my momma, I would make it to the top
And use this rap to put her in the drop
She's the main reason why I roll today
That's why I dedicate this here to my Ole Mae

My momma used to tell me quit smoking weed
My momma gave me everything that I need
My momma said, "Keep faith in God"
My momma, momma, momma, momma, momma

My momma used to tell me quit smoking weed
My momma gave me everything that I need
My momma said, "Keep faith in God"
My momma, momma, momma, momma, momma

As I grew up, blew up in the G-Funk Era
I see my momma every time I take a look in the mirror
I'm thankful, she gotta chance to see me shine
My momma's in my heart and my soul and mind

Controllin' mine, so I can stand strong
For ya grandkids to let 'em know that ya spirit lives on
I really miss you but I know ya looking over
Lead me on the right track, the angel on my shoulder

My momma used to tell me quit smoking weed
My momma gave me everything that I need
My momma said, "Keep faith in God"
My momma, momma, momma, momma, momma

My momma used to tell me quit smoking weed
My momma gave me everything that I need
My momma said, "Keep faith in God"
My momma, momma, momma, momma, momma

So I want y'all to treasure ya mom
Ya know, so if y'all got a bad relationship
Or y'all on bad terms, patch it up
Ain't nothing wrong with that

That's a precious jewel
Remember that, we all gotta go through it
So stay strong, down dis, dis road, ya know
But I cant forget about all the people
Out there that I love and got my back

So I'm gonna go ahead and I'm gonna shoot a shout out
My daddy, my sistas, my brothers, my girl, my kids
My cousins, my aunties, my uncles, my grand momma
My granddaddy, all my homeboys, all my home girls
And everybody out there that got love, know what I'm saying?
We gotta keep it like that, we gotta keep it groovin'
