ntro – soft, emotional]
Yeah…
Mama, I’m sorry…
Mm-mm… ohh-woah…
⸻
[Chorus – melodic, apologetic]
Mama, I’m tryna change, but the streets keep callin’ my name,
I know you been cryin’ ’cause your son caused too much pain.
Every tear that hit the floor, I swear it cut me like a blade—
If I could take it back, I promise I’d wipe your sorrow away.
⸻
[Verse 1 – guilt + upbringing]
Came from where the nights got cold,
Where trouble come quick and the stories unfold.
I ain’t mean to make you worry when I didn’t come home,
I was outside runnin’ wild, tryna make it on my own.
You worked two jobs, barely sleepin’ at night,
While I was duckin’ blue lights, tryna stay outta sight.
Didn’t understand the hurt I was causin’ your life—
I just knew the block loved me when the world didn’t feel right.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – emotional]
And every prayer you whispered for me,
Still echoes in the dark where I used to be…
Mama, I’m tryna be who you want me to be…

🔥 TRANSITION — (Beat cuts out → soft vocals → then heavy, emotional drop)
(Music drops to silence, just humming and soft notes)
[Transition – reflective, whispered]
I remember every tear, mama…
Every night you stayed awake for me…
I was blind to the love you gave…
But I feel it now…
I feel it all…
(Soft background hum builds… heartbeat-like drums fade in…)
And I can’t run from it no more…
(BIG beat hits — emotional, powerful)
⸻
SECOND HALF — heavier, more emotional
[Verse 2 – torn between love & the streets]
I love you more than life, but I’m stuck in this fight,
Tryna break free while the streets grip tight.
You told me I could shine, but I lived in the night,
Lost so many friends that I thought I’d die twice.
Mama, you the only one who saw me as a child,
Not a problem, not a gangster, not another case file.
You saw the pain in my smile, the hurt in my style—
I been tryna change my ways, even if it take a while.
⸻
[Bridge – emotional swell]
Mama, don’t cry…
I know I put you through hell, but I’m still gon’ try…
Wipin’ tears from your eyes…
I’m tryna climb out the darkness I keep inside…
⸻
[Chorus – final, stronger]
Mama, I’m tryna change, but the streets keep callin’ my name,
I know you been cryin’ ’cause your son caused too much pain.
Every tear that hit the floor, I swear it cut me like a blade—
If I could take it back, I promise I’d wipe your sorrow away.
⸻
[Outro – fading, emotional]
Mama, I’m sorry…
I’m finding my way…
Just stay with me…
Mm-mm… ohh-woah…
