[03:24.77]I dedicate this to the Big Mamas everywhere\r
[03:27.52]The ones who raised us - when nobody else was there\r
[03:30.63]The ones who held us and told us itll be alright\r
[03:33.22]When gunshots was goin off every night\r
[03:36.55]Taught us how to lock the door and check the peephole\r
[03:39.02]And how to swallow Vicks when we had a chest cold\r
[03:41.68]How to stay proud, and represent hard\r
[03:44.13]Eat plenty baby, but first say grace for God\r
[03:46.80]Big Mama, Ima miss you\r
[03:48.85]When one of us leave this earth\r
[03:50.81]But baby for what its worth, I love you since the date of my birth\r
[03:53.84]And if it wasnt for my children, I would wanna go first\r
[03:5***9]Youre the reason Im the man I am today\r
[03:58.93]The inspiration, for me to be LL Cool J\r
[04:01.68]When you told me \"Knock Em Out,\" I brought you home a Grammy\r
[04:04.35]I learned to be tough from Big Mama and Aunt Cammy\r
[04:07.21]A black man that was raised by black women\r
[04:09.33]On tour, sippin your special honey and lemon\r
[04:11.77]You told me, gargle with vinegar water and salt\r
[04:14.67]The concert was hot, thanks to your support\r
[04:17.17]Girl - youre the one I love\r
[04:19.57]Whether right here with me or smilin from up above\r
[04:22.25]Trouble or no trouble, you always had my back\r
[04:24.76]So I had to let you know your son appreciates that, Big Mama\r
[Chorus - repeat 2X]\r
[04:48.38][04:27.78]Early one Sunday morning\r
