Lyrics:

Yo I wanna take this time out to dedicate this song

To one of the most beautiful ladies in the world

Could never imagine

Yeah, ole mae, that's my momma, y'know

To one of the most beautifulest ladies in the world

I love ya momma, keep it strong for ya


Chorus: repeat 2x


My momma, used to tell me quit smoking weed

My momma, gave me everthing I need

My momma, said keep faith in god

My momma, momma, momma, momma, momma


[warren g]

From the beginning, soon as my feet touched the earth

For what it's worth, she loved the boy from birth

Kept me fed, combed my head

And tapped that tail when I didn't do what she said

Through the years comin up momma always provided

And when the times got rough momma always tried to hide it

Divide it among us, but pardon the youngsters

Told us never to lie, smoke dope, and cuss

She stood tall and proud like a supermodel on a catwalk

And momma didn't take no back talk

She's the main reason why I roll today

That's why I dedicate this to ole mae

That's my momma


Chorus


[warren g]

As a young teenager I started to clown

My momma did all she could to try to slow me down

Tired of her son be brought by the cops

Sent to go stay with my pops

He taught me to be my own man, and when I disrespected

He put me out on the streets to find my own land

Now I'm servin on the urban street corner

Smokin bud, sippin coronas in long beach, california

But I promised my momma I would make it to the top

And use this rap to put her in the drop

She the main reason why I roll today

That's why I dedicate this here to my ole mae


Chorus


[warren g]

As I grew up, blew up in the g-funk era

I see my momma everytime I take a look in the mirror

I'm thankful she gotta chance to see me shine

My momma's in my heart and my soul and mind

Controllin mine, so I can stand strong

For ya grandkids to let em know that ya spirit lives on

I really miss you, but I know ya looking over

Lead me on the right track, the angel's on my shoulder


Chorus


[warren g]

So I want y'all to treasure ya mom

Ya know, so if y'all got a bad relationship

Or y'all on bad terms, patch it up

Ain't nothing wrong with that

Thats a precious jew-el

Remember that, we all gotta go through it

So stay strong, down dis, dis road, ya know

But I cant forget about all the poeple

Out there that I love, and got my back

So I'm gonna go ahead and I'm gonna shoot a shout out

My daddy, my sistas, my brothers, my girl, my kids

My cousins, my aunties, my uncles, my grandmomma

My granddaddy, all my homeboys, all my homegirls

And everybody out there that got love, knowwhati'msaying?

We gotta keep it like that, we gotta keep it groovin
