Your mama warned you, she was probably right
Said I be trouble all day and all night
She said my kind is not to take an old kind…
…for the birds
She said you listen and you take it from me
You just can't be what he needin to be
But you can't believe everything she says…
I'll know she'll never be a fan
But she's not you
Your mama warned you, she was probably right
Said I be trouble all day…

Music is telling me that it's okay
Mama is telling me that this is damaging
Now, I wanna leave rap

Tell everybody that I warned you, but you dont wanna listen to my words or use your own mind unless it is too late

Everybody all good
[Verse 1: Vic]
Nah blasé blah I don't know that
First off
How you accuse me…
…it
Someone must of given
Maybe from a friend
Listen, know it for a fact I didn't
Cooking in the kitchen with the pot
Stirring up commotion like…
…be short
On groceries I know
Our cereal sat round too long so now it's kinda warm
Warm, warn oh mama warned
No fury like a woman scorned
Came…

…(Giancarlo Bigazzi/Umberto Tozzi; English Lyrics: Diane Warren)
Mama
Remember how you warned me
That he would only hurt me…
…in the night deep in the darkness
He knew how to love me so right
Mama, ooh, he was a wild one
And, ooh, I was a child once
But I will never…
…be a child again
After lovin' him
Oh, not after lovin' him
Mama
I never knew a boy's touch
Could ever teach me so much
All…

…Mama
Remember how you warned me
That he would only hurt me?
Remember how I didn't listen then, wasn't listening?
Mama
You said I…
…the start
He would break my heart
And I guess I was a bad girl
But you just never understood
How the lovin' of that bad boy
Made your…
…Mama
I never knew a boy's touch
Could ever teach me so much
All those nights you didn't understand
I was in good hands
Mama

"Who says so?" I demanded.
"Mama, the doctor-everybody.”
"Oh, you can walk," I said, and I took him by the arms and stood him up…
Brother," he warned.
"Shut up. I'm not going to hurt you. I'm going to teach you to walk." I heaved him up again, and again he collapsed…
…to hug me, and I began to cry.
"What are you crying for?" asked Daddy, but I couldn't answer. They did not know that I did…

[Verse 1: Just Brittany]
If mama would've told me not to trust these niggas
Then I wouldn't've started…
…in love with the money
I was all about my business
I was young and wanting attention
Mama said slow down I wouldn't listen
One thing she said
"Don't…
…open your legs to every guy you meet, respect is everything."
But I learned the hard way
Even though mama warned me
Mistakes…
