Mama don't Lyrics

Sister don't, I said Brother don't, Papa don't

This is the story of growing up, breaking free and learning your own truths

Mama don't preach your truth, Mama don't blame my youth

I said Mama don't play it smooth, cause I just want to live my life in peace

Papa don't analyze, Papa don't give me your advice

Papa don't feed me all them lies, I gotta find my way without you

Growing up is teaching you to learn from your mistakes

So Mama don't, yeah

Sister don't pressure me, I said Sister don't lecture me

Sister I'd rather be, wrong than under your thumb

Brother don't tell me when, I said brother don't try to get under my skin

Brother I see you when , you're wise enough

We're raised together but not the same, don't think alike - we just share the name

So Brother don't

I need you there to have my back

Be there to help me cussion the blow

I've got to try my wings, be there to catch me

Be there to catch me when I fall

Mama don't preach your truth, Mama don't blame my youth

I said Mama don't play it smooth, cause I just want to live my life in peace

Papa don't analyze, Papa don't give me your advice

Papa don't feed me all them lies, I gotta find my way without you

Growing up is teaching you to learn from your mistakes

Let me try my own strength and catch me if it breaks

Might be crazy but I say, I need to find my way

So Mama don't
