Lyrics of Dear Mama by Nino Paid
August, The Fourteenth Day Of The Month, 2001 (2001)
A Full Moon Sat In The Sky That Night,
My Mother Gave Birth To Her Son (My Mother Gave Birth To Her Son)
I Came In This World Not Knowin’ A Thing But Breathing
And That I Was Young (Huh)
The Trauma Started When I Formed A Conscious,
Wish God Ain’t Give Me Nothin’ (Julioo!, Alright)
I Forgive You For Letting Me Go Ma’ Dukes,
Don’t Never Think That I Can Hate You (Don’t Never)
I Wonder Why You Never Came Back For Me,
I Know That Ain’t Part Of Your Nature (I Know)
I Wish I Could See You, I Probably Would Give You A Hug
Then Give You Some Paper (You Need Some Money?)
Time Done Flied, I’m A Whole New Man
Out Here Two Decades Later (Out Here Two Decades Later)
We Had The Lights Off And No Cable
I Fought Depression And Still Kept Stable (I Fought Depression)
I Went From Home To Home And Still Went To School Everyday (Home To Home)
And Dealt With The Haters (And Still Went To School That Day)
I Was Nobody So I Couldn’t Save You
But Now I’m The Man And Still Ain’t Able (But Now I’m The Man, I Still Ain’t Able)
I Got A Story That I Never Told Nobody, Call This One, “Nino’s Fable” (Huh)
A Nigga Had Drowned, I Opened My Eyes On The Surface
They Already Thinkin’ I’m Dead (They Already Thinkin’ I’m Dead)
I Slept On The Bathroom Floor,
One Pillow To Make Sure The Toilet Ain’t Touchin’ My Head (Huh)
I Jumped In The Streets, Started Doin’ This Shit On My Own
Of Course A Young Nigga Was Scared (Of Course A Young Nigga Was Scared)
Who Cares I Don’t Make It Back On The Move?
I’m Already Thinkin’ I’m Dead (I’m Already Thinkin’ I’m Dead)
(Congratulations Kai, You’re Number One) That’s All I Ever Wanted
(I Was— I Was Sleeping) That’s All I Ever Wanted
(I Kept Hearing My Notifications) The Last Thing I Ever Needed
(And When I Looked You Was Like 79K—)
Mama, Of Course I Am (Huh)
I Done Got Rich Off Pain So I’ma Keep Rappin’ About It,
Of Course I Am (Huh, Huh)
I Done Stayed Down Too Long
I’m Tryna Ball, I Don’t Care If The Courts Not In (I’m Tryna Ball)
Why Is He Always So Sad?
Youngin’, You Hearin’ My Story, Don’t Question Me,
Nigga (Youngin’ You Hearin’ My Story)
They Think A Youngin’ Was Blind
How Am I Just Now Gettin’ To Seein’ The Sad Shit? (Huh, Alright)
I Said It Was August, The Fourteenth Day Of The Month, 2001 (2001)
A Full Moon Sat In The Sky That Night,
My Mother Gave Birth To Her Son (My Mother Gave Birth To Her Son)
I Came In This World Not Knowing A Thing But Breathing
And That I Was Young (But Breathing And That I Was Young, Nigga)
My Trauma Started When I Formed A Conscious,
Wish God Ain’t Give Me One (Wish God Ain’t Give Me One)
I Forgive You For Letting Me Go Ma’ Dukes,
Don’t Never Think That I Can Hate You (I Forgive You, I Promise)
I Wonder Why You Never Came Back For Me,
I Know That Ain’t Part Of Your Nature
(I Know That Ain’t Part Of Your Nature, I Know)
I Wish I Could See You Right Now
Give You A Hug And Give You Some Paper
(Give You A Hug And Give You Some Money)
Time Done Flied, I’m A Whole New Man Out Here Two Decades Later
