[Am] Mama, I'm really [Em] sorry for these [Am] last few [F] years.
Mama, I'm really [G] sorry I made you shed them tears.
[Am] Mama, I can't say why I do the things I [F] do.
But I wish you really [G] knew that I never meant to [Am] hurt you.
Oh, it eats me up inside every time I [F] make you cry.
So I try to [G] live right and give you one [Am] peaceful night.
But right there's a fight because the street
life got me [F] crazy.
I chose to live this [G] life.
I know it's not the way you [Am] raised me.
You ashamed of me, Mama, for all that I've done.
[F] Don't give up on me, Mama.
[G] Better days will soon come.
[Am] I try to run from the liquor.
But the bottle keeps calling.
[F] I love to make money quicker.
[Em] So I got to keep [Am] balling and met the enemies.
Got the best of me.
Mama, don't think [F] less of me.
I know that's why you're [G] stressing me.
Because you want to see the [Am] best for me.
They say my destiny is six feet deep.
The way I live, it's just [F] my beat.
I want to change, please [Em] believe.
But until then, don't cry [Am] for me.

Mama tried and uh, Mama [F] cried and uh, Mama I'm sorry [G] I put the tears in your [Am] eyes and uh,
You wonder [Em] why I [Am] ended up this way, [F] I ask myself [G] sometimes, where did I go astray?
[Am] They say the longest river is the river of tears, [F] you feel my death could be near, [G] so now you're drowning in fear,
[Am] You stare into my eyes and my pops is what you see, [F] and that's generation [G] curse that fell [C] upon me,
[Am] You don't wanna believe what your son has become, [F] you never want me to leave, [G] you think I may not return,
[Am] I don't learn from my burns or mistakes that I make, [F] what will it take to go straight [Em] and make your pain go away?
[Am] I say that I will change, but those words you don't trust, [F] but then you never giving up [Em] that unconditional love,
[Am] From a son to a mom, it's that bond you can't break, [F] got too much love for you mom, [Em] that your tears won't go in vain, [Am] no way.
Mama don't you cry no [F] more, you [G] don't have to cry no more,

[Em] Mama something happened today that I just can't explain,
[F] But all I can really say [Em] is that I'm not gonna be the same, I know I say this all the time,
To you [Am] it's just a line, but this peace I can't deny, accepted the Lord into my life, that's right,
Mama, still can't believe it myself, [F] if you knew just what I felt [G] then you would never [Em] have no doubt,
[Am] I don't know how or why [Em] I ended [Am] up in church, [F] I don't know how or why [G] God took [Am] away this hurt,
But I stood in front of the altar with my hands up in the air, [F] I didn't think that God was there,
[G] Or if he really cared, [Am] but out of nowhere, from my head to my feet,
[F] I was filled with the chills and [G] something [Am] overtook me,
Then I dropped to my knees and tears fell like the rain,
[F] Then I asked the Lord please for [Em] my evil ways to be changed,
[Am] As strange as it seemed, I felt it all go away,
[F] My addictions, my guilt, [Em] my sorrow, my pain,
[Am] And today I will say this like I am born again,
I [F] got a second chance in life, [Em] plus a reason to live,
