Mama's Just A Little Girl Lyrics

Song Text:

Young mothers
That's right
I feel ya (hey)
I know how it is

(MAMA's JUST A LIL' GIRL)
Don't nobody understand
I feel ya


[Verse 1: Tupac]

She was ..
Born A heavy set girl
with pig tails 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 15
Should have been a beauty queen

Still see here crying by the caskets when here parents got killed
Little
girl don't cry
'Coz even though they died
You can best believe they
watching over thee from the sky
Never asked for this misery
But look at
what you gettin'
It's a blessing in disguise
When you find out your
pregnant
No money, no home
And even though you all alone
You'se got
to do this on your own
So baby go on
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 fighting the world
Facing all this drama

When mama's just A little girl

[Chorus]

Mama

Don't know why
Mama's just a little girl
Given that she's a
??
Time ain't on her side
Mama's just a little girl
(Mama's just a
little girl)
She gotta hold her head up high

[Verse 2: Tupac]


At 16 what a beautiful thing
The very essence of a jet black ebony
queen
And who could tell she would 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 hate to see the seed she created
So
we wait, though it takes time to build the body and the mind
She reclines 9
months
Then finally its time
What do we find?
A little grown boy a
mind with a tortured soul
Addicted to a life of crime at no time of the
growing stage
He learned his values on the streets at an early age
Watch
for police
Don't come home (why)
'Coz mammas acting crazy
At the
hospital
'Bout to have another baby
Like the rose from concrete

Grown within
Blessed with twins
How the hell can mamma raise 3 men

So we began a closest family
Such insanity
A happy home
For one
act inhumanity
Plus mammas said the seed was corrupted
Used the rubber
belly
Begging us to breathe if she love us
Now mamma sits quiet

Sipping peppermint schnapps
Turned the house into a spot and made her
watch for cops (hey)
How could mamma bring a thug like me into this world?

She ain't the cause of all the drama
Cause mommas just a little girl


[Chorus]

Mama
Don't know why
Mama's just a little
girl
Liven if she is or not
Time ain't on her side
Cause ama's just
a little girl
(Mama's just a little girl)
She gotta hold her head up
high
(How could she raise us)

[Verse 3: Tupac]

Now

Would she remain in the same spot?
The gunshots rang, they came from the
cane spot
Now look here
I see her clutching her son
In her arms she
hurt
Her heart bleeding as she watched her seed die in the dirt
Fulfill
prophecy
But who could stop the grief?
I walk around trying to hold the
world up on top me
Probably be an innocent man
But still I'm the victim
of a curse
What could be worse?
Nothing but pain
Since my birth,
taught me functions at the pen
Cause everybody's in paying back society

I'm guilty of a life of sin
I watched the drama occur
My eyes
blurred 'fore I jet it
I wonder why we all have to die for we get it

Though we shed tears
So many peers I done buried
Worried and scared

Knowing I'ma see the cemetery
Must be prepared in this cold world

No-one cares
No it ain't fair
But we all there
And do our share

In this land of underhanded schemes and plans
Vivid dreams of a nigga
having g's in hand
Mamma told me not to be a punk
Fuck what you talking
about coward
What you niggas want?

(hey)
They ain't a thing I
wouldn't do for my mamma in this world
Cause you know I ain't mad at cha

You' just a little girl
See mammas just a little girl
(hey hey)


[Chorus]

[Repeat until fade]

Mama
don't
know why
Mama's just a little girl
Given that she is or not
time
ain't on here side
mama's just a little girl
(mama's just a little girl)

she gotta hold her head up high

[Tupac Talking]

They
ask us why we mutilate each other like we do
And wonder why we hold such
little worth for human life
Facing all this drama
But to ask us why we
to turn from bad to worse
Is to ignore from which we came
You see you
wouldn't ask why the rose that grew from the concrete had damaged petals
On
the contrary
We would all celebrate its tenacity
We would all love its
will to reach the sun
Well
We are the roses (echo)
This is the
concrete (echo)
And these are my damaged petals (echo)
Don't ask me why
(echo)
Thank god nigga (echo)
Ask me how (echo)
(hahaha)

You
see, mama's just a little girl
