[verse 1]
i heard nas tell kids they can be what they wanna
i remember hearing that from my mother
but since a youngin all i wanted was to just be a protector of her
help take care of my sister and brother
but there were secrets buried deep inside that i didn’t want her to discover
couldn’t burden her with none of my troubles
then she told me one day when were riding
look, nikki you are my kid
i know what’s going on with you, and you ain’t gotta hide it
i’m your mother, i’ma love you if deaf, dumb or blinded
that’s whether you like women or like men
and right then, all these years of carrying a burden
that i thought if i let go then my world would end
but my world begins around nineteen, i’m finally free
cause my queen had passed the crown to me
said i could be whatever i wanted
as long as i promised to remember there’s no love like a mother’s
you’re the best, mama
[chorus]
dear god, i know you’re forever in control
i’m eternally indebted for the blessings you bestowed
if there’s one more thing i can ask of you now
i pray that you’ll forever keep her around
dear god, i know you’re forever in control
i’m eternally indebted for the blessings you bestowed
if there’s one more thing i can ask of you now
i pray that you’ll forever keep her around

[verse 2]
there’s eighteen years that i don’t really want to speak on
the story in my mind, it could be wrong
i never asked no questions
even though at times i still have them
thought i let go of these grudges, but my mind be still grabbing
i asked god to guide me to the child that’s still inside me
so i can take her hand and introduce to this man
that i’ve gotten to know a couple decades ago
give or take a few years but still decades to go
lord willing you can get to know him and start healing
those shattered pieces of your heart that left the hole you try filling in
mr. ken’s a good dude, in fact he’s the best
just get to know him for yourself, i promise you won’t regret
i bet granny saw reflections of him all in your eyes
that why she kept you close and spoiled you rotten all of the time
her baby boy in girl form, she gave you the world for him
and then he came and opened the world for you
i love you pops
[chorus]
dear god, i know you’re forever in control
i’m eternally indebted for the blessings you bestowed
if there’s one more thing i can ask of you now
i pray that you’ll forever keep him around
dear god, i know you’re forever in control
i’m eternally indebted for the blessings you bestowed
if there’s one more thing i can ask of you now
i pray that you’ll forever keep him around
