[Chorus: Ilyas Mao] (II)
I just wanna hear my ummi say she proud of me
Every time I leave the house I tell her pray for me
Have you ever heard that heaven lies beneath the feet
So treat her like the queen that she is yo
[Verse 1: Essam]
I've been tryna put in work, turning nothing into something
Coming from ?, all we ever knew was hustling
Make it out the hood, put our ummis in a better home
Feeling these emotions, we was taught to never let it show
I can tell you bout my life, will you understand?
My ummi got a PhD, Allah had different plans
We was homeless many nights sleeping in the cold
Father left me as a baby I forgive him though
I recently just met him and I'm 24
Used to have a lot of anger till I let it go
Now I really know love is the answer
Young youth never knew that hate was a cancer
[Chorus: Essam] (II)
I just wanna hear my ummi say she proud of me
Every time I leave the house I tell her pray for me
Have you ever heard that heaven lies beneath the feet
So treat her like the queen that she is yo
[Pre-Chorus: Essam] (IV)
Shout-out all the ummis
[Verse 2: Essam]
Running round with the homies, getting litty, but your ummi stressing?
If she ain't happy with your life, you gon' lose your blessings
Take advantage of those moments every single second
She only got one soul she won't got a second
If you won't do it for your ummi what you living for?
I swear it's hurts knowing ummi being nurse in homes
Imma care for you regardless of the situation
Your my best friend, nothing can have a replacement
Ummis first, ummis second, and ummis third
Whatever my Prophet say, then that be the word
So imma treat you like a queen, give you the world
And I'll always keep you in my prayers when you leave this world
[Chorus: Essam] (II)
I just wanna hear my ummi say she proud of me
Every time I leave the house I tell her pray for me
Have you ever heard that heaven lies beneath the feet
So treat her like the queen that she is yo
[Pre-Chorus: Essam] (IV)
Shout-out all the ummis
