_ [A] Ah-ow!
I wanna scream so [C] loud for you,
cause I'm so [Em] proud of you and I'd
Let me tell you [D] what I'm about [G] to do.
I know I [E] acted a [A] fool but, I promise you
[Bm] I'm going back to school, [C] and I [Gm] appreciate what you [Em] allowed
for me, and I'd
I [F] just wanted to do the grind
I [G] wanna tell the whole world about a friend of mine
This little light [Am] of mine, I'm finna let it shine
[C] I'm finna take y'all back to them better [Gm] times
[Em] I'm finna talk about my mama if y'all [C] don't mind
I was three [N] years old when you and I moved to the shy
Late December, Hartswinner gave [C] me a call
You fixed me up something that was good for [Em] my soul
Famous homie, [G] Chicka Su, can I have another bowl?
You work late nights [N] just to keep on the lights
Mommy got me trainin' wheels so I can keep on [C] my bike
And you can give me anything in this world
[Em] Michael Jackson, leather and the blood
[G] But didn't get me on curl
And you never put no [Am] man over me
And I love you for that, mommy, can't you see?
[C] Seven years old, caught [Em] you with tears in your eyes
Cause a nigga [D] cheated, tellin' you lies
Then I started [G] to cry as we knelt on the kitchen [Am] floor
I said, mommy, I'ma love you till you don't hurt [C] no more
And when I'm [Em] older, you ain't gotta work no more
And I'ma get [Bm] you that mansion that we couldn't [G] afford
See, you're unbreakable, unmistakable, [Am] highly capable
Lady that's makin' loot, a living legend too
Just look at [G] what heaven do, send us an angel
And I thank you, mama
I [Am]
wanna scream [F#m] so loud for you
[C] Cause I'm [G] so proud of you
Let me tell you what I'm about to do, [B] mama
I know I act [Am] a fool, but I promise you I'm goin' back [C] to school
And I [A] appreciate what you allow [G] for me
I just want you to be proud of me
Boys, come, mama said, life is like a box [E] of chocolates
My mama told me, go to school, get [C] your doctorate
Somethin' to fall back on, you could [Em] profit with
But still supported me [Bm] when I did [G] the opposite
Now I feel like it's things [A] I gotta get, things I gotta do
Just [C] to prove to you, you was gettin' through
Can the [Em] choir please give me [D] a verse of you are so [G] beautiful to me?
Can't you [A] see?
You're like a book of [C] poetry
Maya Angelou, Nikki [Em] Giovanni
Turn [G] one page and there's my mommy
Come on, mommy, just dance [A] with me
Let the whole world see you dancin' feet
Now [C] when I say, hey, y'all [Em] say, mama
Now everybody [D] askin' me, [G] mama
_ _ [A] I wanna scream so loud for [F#] you
[C] Cause I'm so [D] proud of [Em] you, and I
Let me [D] tell you what I'm about to [G] do, mama
I know I act a [A] fool, but I promise you I'm goin' [Dm] back to [C] school
And I appreciate what you allow for [Em] me
I just [Bm] want you to be proud of me, mama
[B] I guess it all [A] depends, though, [G] if my end's low
Second they get up, you gon' get that benzo
Tent the windows, ride around [A] the city and let your [G] friends know
Tell your dad you gotta fake him [A] out
Since you want me in this world, let me take you [C] out
To a restaurant, up a [Em] echelon
I'ma get you [D] a jack, whatever else you [G] want
Just tell me what kind of S-type Don to [A] West like
Tell me the perfect color so [Am] I make it just right
[C] It don't gotta be Mother's Day [Em] or your birthday
For [D] me to just call and [G] say, mama
_ _ [A]
I wanna scream so loud for [F#] you
[C] Cause I'm so proud of [Em] you, and I
Let me [D] tell you what I'm about to [G] do, mama
You know I love you [A] so, I never let you [C] go
And I wrote this song just so you [Em] know
No matter where you [D] go, my love is [G] true
