This is a deep song, it's like a letter to my mom. Check it out.
Take a moment and check out a couple tracks, you'll be glad you did!
My aim is to introduce the world to a very underground sound of possativity. I mix much of lyrics with attitude, aggression, and love. My fans mean more to me than this music does, so I want to be a possative aspect to their lives (without sounding boy band). I'm not sure how to really explain my style any other way (and who ever reads these anyway?), so just take a moment and listen to a couple tracks - I'm sure you'll be glad you did.
Story behind the song
My mom and I had a bit of a rough past.
Like most kids, I was the main problem, my attitude. I was almost 20 when I finally realized what the REAL problem was, and so I talked to my mom, and we patched things up. This song is like a letter to her, saying all the things I couldn't say to her face. Hope you enjoy it, and take it to heart.
Lyrics
Momma
By E Klipps copyright 2003
I write you now momma, in the form of a rhyme
Don't always know how to say what's on my mind.
But I feel that it's now that I gotta rewind
Pause to voice how I be feeling inside
Not just pen to paper, or just ink on some lines
It's emotion, it's regret, an tears not yet cried
When I was learning to walk, yo, you tried to hold my hand
But I kept 'em in my pockets like I possesed a plan
But I kept fallin', landin' face first in the sand
Felt angery 'cause you didn't hold me up, then
One thing lead it's way on to another
'Till I was overflowing with bitterness for my mother
Wish when I was young, that I wasn't so dumb
To do unto you all the things that I have done
Put you through so much, not one but many
Guess it's true as they say, hind sights 20/20
Momma, oh momma Please forgive me now
Momma, oh momma Please believe me now
I dont wanna fly away feeling this way
Momma, oh momma, Can we start again? (x2)
I'm sorry momma for the all the poison tipped spears
It hurts me inside, 'cause I know I caused tears
I saw so very many stain your face through the years
There's nothing that I can say to make the past disappear
All I can do is appologize from the heart
An recognize, momma, I was wrong from the start
For the pain that I caused, for the sleep that you lost
There's nothing I can do to repay that cost
I took our time for granted, assumed you'd always be there
I wasnt worried about the lack of time we never shared
We faught all the time, I never thought I'd care.
Momma I'm sorry, I never treated you fair
"If I knew then what I know now", I keep sayin'
This letter'd be different, words of thanks it'd display, an
Past 20 years, they wouldn't have been wasted
I'm so sorry momma for every tear you ever tasted
HOOK
When you an dad went your seperate ways
I claimed to help you out every step of the way
We'd stick together, or so I said to your face
But we grew apart fast, back to our same old ways
Attempted to help me out of love, I see it now
But I always thought you were to blame some how
My eyes blinded with bitterness to the extent
Anyone I saw try to help me, I'd resent
Who was the one that worried most an
Who tried to get me to go to counsilin'
Who was that cried herself to sleep more than one time
Tell me to whom is dedicated this one rhyme?
I really gotta go again on my way
But I look forward to when we get together again
With love, kiss an hugs, I'm signin' off, I'm out
Sincerely, yours truely, uh, give me a shout.
