A Mother's Love

Some people say they don't believe in love at first sight

But I must admit the first time I laid eyes on my mother I fell in love

This dedicated to you, mama

I love you!

Before I entered the world I was a spirit

So God gave me a home, yea

He knew that you could give me love unconditional

So inside of you I began to grow

Our connection was so amazing

Your belly was filled with my love

I gave a little kick when I heard your voice

Go mama, go mama, go mama

I know how much you felt the pain

Cause I wasn't ready

For you to meet your baby boy

You're the first girl that I loved

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother

Nothing can come between us

There's nothing that can replace the love of a mother

I know in you I can always trust

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother

We only get one mother

There's nothing that can replace a mother's love, a mother's love

My dream these years you were there to look it proudly

You discipline turned me into a man

I watched you lie your head and now I'm gone

Every morning, yea

Never trippin, just providing what I needed

I know your life ain't pretty easy

We struggled but we made it with love

We struggled but you didn't let it show

Go mama, go mama, go mama

And there's no one that can take your place

You've been every day

For that I got to let you know

You're the first girl that I loved

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother

Nothing can come between us

There's nothing that can replace the love of a mother

I know in you I can always trust

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother

We only get one mother

There's nothing that can replace a mother's love, a mother's love

Yo this goes out to all the mothers in the world

The single mothers, the married mothers

Especially my mother

Mama you know I love you from the bottom of my heart

To the depths of my soul

You'll always be the first woman... I ever fell in love with

You're the first girl that I loved

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother

There's nothing that can replace the love of a mother

I know in you I can always trust

There's nothing that can replace the love of a mother (mama do you hear me?)

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother

There's nothing that can replace a mother's love, a mother's love

Nobody could ever take the place of a mother
