What are you doing, mom
I'm checking if the cops are here
So I open the door
Before they bust it
The cops aren't gonna come, mom
come, come
Come rest, mom
I promised mama
Not to do it again
No more drama
You know how it is
The cops came to my place
And smashed everything
No more drama, drama, mama
This morning the door blew apart
Shattering the night's silence
The wake-up is brutal and fear floods in
Mama
Ghetto life
Excuses rain down
On our dried-out hearts
They say the devil makes sins look good
She shed tears of pain
With shame and anxiety on top
It's harsh
She doesn't deny her own flesh
Despite all his mistakes piling up
All the time
I promised mama
Not to do it again
No more drama, you know how it is
The cops came to my place
And smashed everything
No more drama, drama, mama
I promised mama
Not to do it again
No more drama, you know how it is
The cops came to my place
And smashed everything
No more drama, drama, mama
6 a.m., I hear the cops on the landing
They came to batter-ram my dreams
My cheeks on the floorboards, the ground is cold
I struggle to breathe, I feel cramped
I'm cuffed, still in shock
Mom doesn't even cry anymore
Like a dead river
Her anger can't find words anymore
Last time I saw her smile
Was in a photo
A wad, a Glock under the box spring
Gun possession, I'll have to do time
Seeing you fall hurts more than getting smoked
Only one pawn will be left on the board
Mom, try to stay strong
She doesn't live anymore, she just bears it
SWAT busts down her door
She just waits for death to take her
I wanted cash
All I did was smash her face
My nightlife
Only gnawed away at her days
Mom is beautiful
But she looks ten years older
I roll in an ML
I pass her at the bus stop
In the garden
Of lonely mothers
No perfume
To comfort her
Her life is fading
In the river of time
I'm gonna soak my hands
In rivers of blood
The cops came to my place
They gassed mama
I had promised her, no more drama
I promised mama
Not to do it again
No more drama, you know how it is
The cops came to my place
And smashed everything
No more drama, drama, mama
I promised mama
Not to do it again
No more drama, you know how it is
The cops came to my place
And smashed everything
No more drama, drama, mama
