I was controlling?
Well, that's what I had to be
Parents control kids.
I call it raising
You in the right direction
Keeping your path straight
I was a wild teen
Pulled all the tricks in the book
Got pregnant with you
Knew what to watch for
And yes, I kept you from things
Just tried to do right
Worked hard to achieve
Indeed, made it my purpose
To be a good mom
Spoiling you rotten
I gave endless attention
taken for granted
Generation ME
That is how yours is defined
And now I see why
No one is perfect
But I deserve a Big A
Instilled many things
Struggled to give you
All the things I never had
And I succeeded
Put you before me
Now you think you're above me
Your esteem so high
Like the Will Smith song
Prayed and pledged my life to you
Took so much life force
All I wanted back
Was a close relationship
Cherish each other
You abandoned me
Just when it was time to say
Thanks for everything
You are engaged now
I guess your life is so full
And you don't need me

Will Smith - Just The Two Of Us Lyrics
From the first time the doctor placed you in my arms
I knew I'd meet death before I'd let you meet harm
Although questions arose in my mind, would I be (mom) enough?
Against wrong, choose right and be standin up
From the hospital that first night
Took a hour just ta get the carseat in right
People drivin all fast, got me kinda upset
Got you home safe, placed you in your basinett
That night I don't think one wink I slept
As I slipped out my bed, to your crib I crept
Touched your head gently, felt my heart melt
Cause I knew I loved you more than life itself
Then to my knees, and I begged the Lord PLEASE
Let me be a good (Mommy), all he needs
Love, knowledge, discipline too
I PLEDGE MY LIFE TO YOU
Just the two of us, we can make it if we try
Just the two of us, (Just the two of us)
Just the two of us, building castles in the sky
Just the two of us, you and I
Five years old, bringin comedy
Everytime I look at you I think man, a little me
Just like me
Wait an see gonna be tall
Makes me laugh cause you got your dads ears an all
Sometimes I wonder, what you gonna be
A General, a Doctor, maybe a MC
Haha, I wanna kiss you all the time
But I will test that butt when you cut outta line, trudat
Uh-uh-uh why you do dat?
I try to be a tough (mom), but you be makin me laugh
Crazy joy, when I see the eyes of my baby boy
I pledge to you, I will always do
Everything I can
Show you how to be a man
Dignity, integrity, honor an
An I don't mind if you lose, long as you came with it
An you can cry, ain't no shame in it
It didn't work out with me an your (dad)
But yo, push come to shove
You was conceived in love
So if the world attacks, and you slide off track
Remember one fact, I got your back
It's a full-time job to be a good (mom)
You got so much more stuff than I had
I gotta study just to keep with the changin times
101 Dalmations on your CD-ROM
See me-I'm
Tryin to pretend I know
On my PC where that CD go
But yo, ain't nuthin promised, one day I'll be gone
Feel the strife, but trust life does go wrong
But just in case
It's my place
To impart
One day some girl's gonna break your heart
And ooh ain't no pain like from the opposite sex
Gonna hurt bad, but don't take it out on the next, son
Throughout life people will make you mad
Disrespect you and treat you bad
Let God deal with the things they do
Cause hate in your heart will consume you too
Always tell the truth, say your prayers
Hold doors, pull out chairs, easy on the swears
You're living proof that dreams do come true
I love you and I'm here for you
