To the young mothers
I feel ya, I know how it is
(Mama's just a little girl)
Don't nobody understand i feel ya

She was born a heavy set
Girl with pigtails and curls
A heart full of gold
Still it won't change the world
Though she could never understand why
Some underhanded plans witnessed a man die
Was only fifteen, should have
Been a beauty queen, still
See her cryin' by the caskets
When her parents got killed
Little girl don't cry
'cause even though they died
You can best believe they're watchin'
Over thee from the sky
Never asked for this misery
But look at what you're gettin'
It's a blessin' in disguise when
You find out you're pregnant
No money, no home
And even though you're all alone
You gots to do this on your own, so baby gone
I wish you luck and if you need me, call
Just come to me and let me feed you all
I can understand the way it feels
When you're fightin' the world
Facin' all this drama when Mama's
Just a little girl

And mama's just a little girl
(How old are you?)

At sixteen what a beautiful thing
The very essence of a jet-black ebony queen
And who could tell she'd get
Pregnant at an early age?
She didn't listen, had sex
Watch her belly raise
Hey, got violated by someone she dated
If this is fate, I'd hate to
See the seeds she created, and so we waited
Though it takes time to build
A body and a mind
She reclines nine months then
Finally it's time
What do we find? Little growin' boy of mine
With a tortured soul
Addicted to a life of crime
Had no time for the growin' stage
He learned his values on the
Streets at an early age
Watch for police, don't come home, why?
'Cause Mama's actin' crazy at the hospital
'Bout to have another baby
Like a rose from the concrete, growin' within
Blessed with twins how the hell
Can Mama raise three men?
So we began, closest family, such insanity
A happy home, from one act of inhumanity
Plus Mama said the seed was corrupted
Used to rub her belly
Beggin' us to breathe and she'd loved us
Now, Mama, sit's quiet
Sippin' peppermint Schnapps
Turned the house into a spot and
Made her watch for cops (hey)
How could Mama bring a thug
Like me in this world?
She ain't the cause of all the drama
Cause Mama's just a little girl

(Stupid motherfuckers don't know)
Mama's just a little girl
(How can she raise us?)

Now, will she remain in the same spot?
The gunshots rang
They came from the 'caine spot
Now, look here, I see her clutchin'
Her son in her arms, she's hurt
Her heart bleeds
Now she watched her seed die in the dirt
Fulfilled prophecy
But who could stop the grief I walk
Around, tryin' to hold the world
Up on top of me
I'd probably be an innocent man
Still I'm the victim of a curse
What could be worse? Nothing but pain
Since my birth only functions at the pen'
'cause everybody's in payin' back society
I'm guilty of a life of sin
I watch the drama occur
My eyes blur before I jetted
I wonder why we all have to
Die 'fore we get it though we shed tears
So many peers I've done buried
Worried and scared
Knowin' I'ma see the cemetery
Must be prepared, in this cold world
No one cares no! It ain't fair
But we all bear and do our share
In this land of the
Underhanded schemes and plans
Vivid dreams of a nigga havin' G's in hand
Mama told me not to be a punk
F*ck what you talkin' about, coward
What you niggas want? (hey)
There ain't a thing I wouldn't do
For my Mama in this world
Cause you know I ain't mad at cha
You're just a little girl
(Hell nah, that's right)

See mammas just a little girl
(Mama's just a little girl)
Mama's just a little girl
Facing all this drama
'cause mama's just a little girl

They ask us why we mutilate
Each other like we do
(Mama's just a little girl)
They wonder why we hold such
Little worth for human life
(Facin' all this drama
When mama's just a little girl)
To ask us why we turn from bad to worse
Is to ignore from which we came
(Mama's just a little girl) you see
You wouldn't ask why the rose that grew
From the concrete had damaged petals
(Mama's just a little girl) on the contrary
We would all celebrate it's tenacity
We would all love it's will to reach the sun
Well, we are the roses (We are the roses)
This is the concrete (This is the concrete)
And these are my damaged petals
(These are my damaged petals)
Don't ask me why (Don't ask why)
Thank God, nigga (Thank god)
Ask me how (Ahahaha)
You see, Mama's just a little girl
