Auntie & Grandma Lyrics

(*Z-Ro talking*)
Special shouts out goes to
My Aunt Sandra & my Grandma Dorothy
My 2 favorite girls, you dig these blues.

[Z-Ro:]
Comin' up as a juvenile, 1983
Had no idea, the Lord would take my mom away from me
Cold part about it, I was only 6 when she died
Aunt Sandra & Grandma Dorothy, wipe the tears from my eye
Ever since I could remember, they've been guardian angels
Whenever life started chokin' me, they would loosen up the strangle
Wish I had a million dollars, I would hand it over
So I could see my Auntie in a Bentley & my Gram's in a Range Rover
Who say, 2 women couldn't raise a man
They did everything, except put a pistol inside my hand
Taught me when to fight & taught me when to walk away
The main reason, why I'm not outlined in chalk today
So many problems in my life, I'm glad they never left me lonely
Much more than my Auntie & Grandmama, y'all my homies
And can't nobody ever take the place of my mama
But raisin' me was hard, so I thank God for my...

[Chorus: Z-Ro]
Auntie & Grandmama
When I thought I wouldn't make it they
Brought me through the drama
I don't know what I do without
Auntie & Grandmama
When I thought I wouldn't make it they
Brought me through the drama.

[Z-Ro:]
Daddy was around, but he stayed gone
Even when he was at home, he never stayed long
He was in the street, so I raised myself
Without his guidance I fell off & almost played myself
I got put out the house & started livin' like a hobo
Contemplatin' suicide, but Grandma said that was a no-no
Then Auntie came & picked me up & gave me some bread
They gave me life when everybody else done left me for dead
I was in hell sometime, but they know I'm not a crook
So they kept letters comin' daily & kept money on my booksZ-Ro - Auntie & Grandma - http://motolyrics.com/z-ro/auntie-and-grandma-lyrics.html
I thank the Lord for 'em, can't nobody take they places
I just wanna make 'em happy, keep a smile on they faces
They deserve the world, the universe at the galaxy
For stayin' by my side, through all my hard times & tragedies
Can't nobody ever take the place of my mama
But raisin' me was hard, so I thank God for my...

[Chorus: Z-Ro]
Auntie & Grandmama
When I thought I wouldn't make it they
Brought me through the drama
I don't know what I do without
Auntie & Grandmama
When I thought I wouldn't make it they
Brought me through the drama.

[Z-Ro:]
Even though I got love for all my family members
Only my 2 favorite girls showed me love from December to December
So I'm showin' love back, it's the least I can do
For bein' my parents & seein' me through
We always had alot of love in that household
Didn't have alot of food, but I never had to keep my mouth closed
Always had something hot, on my plate
Alot of times I was full, before my people even ate
Aunt Sandra & Grandma Dorothy, y'all my blood for life
Appreciate the way you made sho' the word of God touched me right
'Cause I'm a God-fearin' man 'til I'm in my grave
Tryin' to make it to Heaven with y'all, no more sinnin' days
If I had wishes to make, I would give 'em to y'all
Because without your love, I would not be livin' at all
Can't nobody take the place of my mama
But raisin' me was hard, so I thank God for my...

[Chorus: Z-Ro]
Auntie & Grandmama
When I thought I wouldn't make it they
Brought me through the drama
I don't know what I do without
Auntie & Grandmama
When I thought I wouldn't make it they
Brought me through the drama.
