Mama I wanna thank you for sharing your blessings upon me
Taking time to understand the lady I wanna be
Yes mama I wanna thank you for sharing your blessings upon me
Taking time to understand the lady I wanna be

This cold world had me num the pain like novacaine
Till mama sat me down unfold the gate
Showed me the straight path through the narrow lane
Sunshine after rain the joy of pain

Mama you raised a good girl don't worry
You used to say take it slow Trina don't hurry
Use to tuck me in with the bedtime story
Now I grown up and you still there for me

My shoulder to lean on you kept my dreams going
I owe it all to you me now I got the green flowing
And I'm gon' always be your baby
And I can't never repay you for all the things that you gave me

You raised me to be a lady
And you s**** me to the game so them *****s couldn't play me
You was more than a mother you was a friend
The greatest love of all comes from within

I know I'll never know love like this again
And beneath my wings you was the wind
I love you like none other
'Cause you can only live your whole life but only get one mother

Being there for me through the thick and thin
More than just a mother your my best friend
Look within and take your place

Sometimes I wanna run to ya
Through the ups and downs I know I can still come to ya
I think about the things I done to ya
But through all the drama I know I'm still number one to ya

Uh, look at how far you brought me
All the things you have taught me money couldn't bought me
You never wanted us to make the same mistakes
When the game got high and they raised the stakes

You was still in my corner to press the brace
Till I'm ready in your arms you kept me safe
Through the thick and thin I'm gon' be there for you
I say a prayer for you Lord knows I care for you

Through hard times we got strong or mother to daughter
When I was weak you was my bridge over trouble water
Can't nobody replace you I'm forever faithful
For you mama I'm grateful

Your baby girl is a reflection of you
I thank the Lord up above 'cause he blessed me with you, uh
I love you like none other
'Cause you can live your whole life but you can only get one mother
