Yeah, you know what time it is
Dedicated to the one who paved the way
Steady foundation
Listen
I remember early mornings when the house was cold
Watching you work till the story was told
Silver in your hair but you stayed so young
Singing every lullaby that was ever sung
You sacrificed the diamonds just to give me gold
Watched me grow up while the seasons rolled
I see the way you hold it down with a quiet grace
Nothing in this world can ever replace that space
Yeah, you stayed focused when the lights went dim
You kept your head high, you never let them win
I'm just a product of the love you poured
Living out the blessings that you worked for, Lord
Oh mama, you’re the rock, you’re the realest thing
I’m just trying to make you proud of what the future brings
Everything I do, it’s for you, yeah, it’s for you
Watching how you move, yeah, the way you do what you do
You’re my motivation when the road gets long
I’m holding onto every single word of your song
Yeah, it’s for you, yeah, it’s for you
Every single dream that I’m chasing is true
I see you grinding in the kitchen, making magic happen
Ignoring all the noise and all the idle yappin'
You showed me how to stand up when I’m feeling weak
You taught me how to find the power that I need to speak
It ain't about the money or the flashy clothes
It’s about the spirit and the way that it grows
You kept the table set, you kept the doors open wide
Even when the tide was rising on the other side
I’m stepping into light that you helped me find
Leaving all the doubt and the fear behind
You’re the blueprint, mama, yeah, you’re the design
So glad that your star is the one that shines
Oh mama, you’re the rock, you’re the realest thing
I’m just trying to make you proud of what the future brings
Everything I do, it’s for you, yeah, it’s for you
Watching how you move, yeah, the way you do what you do
You’re my motivation when the road gets long
I’m holding onto every single word of your song
Yeah, it’s for you, yeah, it’s for you
Every single dream that I’m chasing is true
And if I ever lose my way, I look at you
I see the fire in your eyes, I know what’s true
You never asked for nothing, just wanted me to shine
Now I’m taking back the world, yeah, one piece at a time
No mountain too high, no valley too deep
You kept the promises you made, you kept them to keep
Yeah, you the queen, let the record show
Everywhere I go, I’m letting everybody know
So keep that crown straight, let it sit on your head
I’m listening to every single word that you said
Life is a marathon, we running at our pace
But I’m crossing every finish line with you in the race
It’s a beautiful thing, watching you relax
No more heavy lifting, I’m handling the facts
You paved the way, now let me take the wheel
I’m just trying to make you see how you make me feel
Oh mama, you’re the rock, you’re the realest thing
I’m just trying to make you proud of what the future brings
Everything I do, it’s for you, yeah, it’s for you
Watching how you move, yeah, the way you do what you do
You’re my motivation when the road gets long
I’m holding onto every single word of your song
Yeah, it’s for you, yeah, it’s for you
Every single dream that I’m chasing is true
Yeah, this one’s for you, mama
Always and forever
Just keep shining
Yeah, that’s that, that’s that love
We just getting started
Look at you now, look at us
Yeah, you the best, you the best
Peace
