buu e. radley - mama's song lyrics

[intro]
uh, uh, yea (yea)
yea (yea)
as we close out this “40 below”
i really hope y’all enjoyed this album
’cause i really put my all into it
let’s go (let’s go)

[chorus]
who you see comin’ up, you see coming down
mama told me since i was a child
it’s true, i see it
the circle of life

[verse 1]
’round we go like a merry+go
up and down like a seesaw
to ill+strate how life goes
you can be up big tomorrow
frown on those who beg or borrow
lose everything over night
and your favorite vicе couldn’t rid your sorrow
i drank more than a pod of whales
when i lost my first job out school
d+mn nеar dropped out of life
’cause the shame weighed on me like a nuke
fast forward four short years
the collective ep we’d bring to you
mustard seed
pre+purgatory
the mockingbird
“40 below”
none of these would have come to pass
back in my past if i’d let go
my mom’s words that i memorized
are immortalized as i make a song
twenty+five years that it took
to get the full meaning shared with her son
who you see comin’ up
you see coming down
that bar stuck
[chorus]
who you see comin’ up, you see coming down
mama told me since i was a child
it’s true, i see it
the circle of life

[chorus]
who you see comin’ up, you see coming down
mama told me since i was a child
it’s true, i see it
the circle of life

[verse 2]
in this world there are people who’ll look down on you
judging you like you on trial
guilty verdict coming down from ’em
they be sitting high and mighty now
a few years down the road from ’em
walkin’ up to you in your car
tryna get some spare change from you
watched them as they rose and fell
from their glory to their current sh+ll
as the world watches you, too
with or without you knowing well
who you see comin’ up
you see coming down
this is a dual tale
it just dawned on me recently
this sayin’, in its simplicity
is a lesson in humility
to kick a person when they down and out
you lose a foot ’cause you know you wrong
my mom’s words i memorized
are immortalized as i make a song
twenty+five years that it took
to get the full meaning shared with her son
d+mn (d+mn)
[chorus]
who you see comin’ up, you see coming down
mama told me since i was a child
it’s true, i see it
the circle of life

[chorus]
who you see comin’ up, you see coming down
mama told me since i was a child
it’s true, i see it
the circle of life

[outro]
the circle of life
the circle of life
it’s true, i see it
the circle of life

[outro]
i need y’all to understand
how hardbody a bar is that
it go over your head a whole
twenty+five, thirty+sumn years
who you see coming up
you see coming down
and it’s in that moment it dawned on me
my mama could have been a rapper (+laughter+)
yea, yea
circle of life
