afeni shakur - daylyt lyrics

[hook]

sick as a little kid

to keep me happy, there’s no limit to the things you did

and all my childhood memories

are full of all the sweet things you did for me

(you are appreciated)

pour out some liquor and i reminisce

‘cause through the drama i can always depend on my mama

(dear mama)

and when it seems that i’m hopeless

you say the words that can get me back in focus

you are appreciated

[verse 1]
they blame you for the bad pac wit’ the thuggin’

big foot in the hood who got his ass squashed/sasquatched wit’ the cousins

court cases, lawyers got mad lot/locked for the thuggin’

say you madе the volkswagen ’cause d*mn pac hе was bug an’/buggin’

but they don’t see what you did for the world

you created a god for these kids in the world

but the medium i/eye awaken

media try an’ take it

tell us it’s no religion

but jesus, he died in vegas

you was married/mary to my world

but you ain’t catch it: you was mary to the world

you create the son of god for us
and you create the son that die for us

horus: you create the son/sun that rise/rides for

sun/son that cry for us

it was pac

couldn’t step in the lane for them baby’s/babies

we gon’ put some respek on your name

this is crazy that you gone

you’ve been that lady since the day he made the song “dear mama”

dear mama;

[hook]

sick as a little kid

to keep me happy, there’s no limit to the things you did

and all my childhood memories
are full of all the sweet things you did for me

(you are appreciated)

pour out some liquor and i reminisce

‘cause through the drama i can always depend on my mama

(dear mama)

and when it seems that i’m hopeless

you say the words that can get me back in focus

yeah;

[interlude: afeni shakur talking]

*they called him “a gangster rapper”, and they called him* (dear mama) *many other unsavoury names. i believe it is because tupac work* (you are appreciated) *has spoken for him for ten years so loudly and so clearly…* (you are appreciated);

[verse 2]

they said the broken home was the cause of the man

to respect you as a mama, it was hard as a fan

see the crack fiend mamas

should’ve been black queen mamas

but it’s part of the plan

willie lynch will he lynch us

every inch of that hot plate

made sure that pac straight

i got faith in you, even through the b.i.g. beef

did he/diddy become victorious?

the glorious/glory is just seein’ he was glorious

and you gave us a general, picked ’em/picton

a diamond in the rough and all the men’a roll/mineral wit’ ’em

if i could go back in time i’d be there at the road wit’ ’em

front row wit’ ’em, front row wit’ ya

screaming “this for my panthers, this one’s for huey newton!”

we went from panthers, now everybody is panther fans

huey newton to cam newton, the plan advanced

we gotta finish what you started

and finish what you taught ’em

and finish what he taught me;

[hook]

when i was sick as a little kid

to keep me happy, there’s no limit to the things you did

and all my childhood memories

are full of all the sweet things you did for me

(you are appreciated)

pour out some liquor and i reminisce

‘cause through the drama i can always depend on my mama

(dear mama)

and when it seems that i’m hopeless

you say the words that can get me back in focus

you are appreciated;

\[interlude/outro: afeni shakur continuing talking\]

*…that it’s basically impossible to ignore him anymore. but that’s tupac! that’s how tupac operates* (dear mama). *(voice from a video on her slideshow starts playing accidentally; multiple voices talking at once) “what is tupac’s most…” no, no, don’t be sorry, i’m gunna sit down here to do that, okay? and then i’m gunna come back, and—and—’cause i don’t gab, i can do that anyway. (original video cuts out here and resumes where ms. shakur begins speaking again; daylyt did not cut or edit it here) …builds an institution, and you may not understand how important that is right now, but trust me, in about four or five years, you’re gunna look around and that’s just what you’re gunna say: that n0body built an institution; “why didn’t those people use their money to build an institution, which is something that lasts, something that carries culture forward, something that gives you independence, allows you to teach what you want to teach rather than what the people who are paying you tell you to teach?” we are very, very grateful to be completely, um, committed to running this institution without federal or government funds. we exist off of the back of tupac amaru shakur, and his fans, and his, um, um, peers: the other people in the industry who also believe in what we—we do. so, um, you be proud because you have an institution; and the next time you hear somebody say something negative about tupac, you just ask them where’s the institution that they built for you, okay? (audience applauds). i alluded, a few minutes ago, to this, but let me say it clearly right now. did i say it: i’m a recovering addict, and that is the definition of who i am? it’s so important to look at me as a recovering addict.*
