J.k. The Reaper Momma Lyrics

[Chorus]
I should've went to church with you, mama
But instead I roamed the streets
Yeah, I should've went to work for you, mama
And I hope you pay the lease
Oooooh, I should've stayed in school for you, mama
But instead I'm skipping class and I ain't goin' back
Oh, I should've gave the world to you, mama
You gone have it all, you gone have it all

[Verse]
I know when I was younger I had let you down
Even though I wasn't perfect, I was just a child
I know it's times that you couldn't even look at me
Without thinking of all the demons I was letting in
And I tried to take the love that you took away
And replaced it with these hoes
But I know when they hug me that it's not the same And soon I'll feel alone - again

[Pre-Chorus]
When I should've went to war for you, mama
I just wasn't brave enough
Now you bailing me out of jail, I'm f*cking up
Bad choices made my mother lose trust
Now I'm tripping, cause I'm on drugs

[Chorus]
When I should've went to church with you, mama
But instead I roamed the streets
Yeah, I should've went to work for you, mama
And I hope you pay the lease
Oooooh, I should've stayed in school for you, mama
But instead I'm skipping class and I ain't goin' back
Oh, I should've gave the world to you, mama
You gone have it all, you gone have it all, ooooh
