lyrics
Chorus: Mama...Get Up, Get Up [3x]
This Is Your Resurrection
Moved to the city of crime, barely a dime
nothing in the bank account, but still paramount
used to hit the church for food, thrift store for clothes
Did we complain? Hell No
That was the world to us, key to living
the only god that we knew, our religion
used to walk through the house and feel great
although we had food stamps and section 8
woke up every morning late, but on time
I used to play sick in bed, she didn't mind
she was that cool, put us in a public school
she used to build ISH without tools
I'm serious, this quiet woman was a quiet storm
when she got furious, that was the end of it, period
wasn't no talking back or cussing in the house
mama kick your arse out
Chorus: Mama...Get Up, Get Up [3x]
This Is Your Resurrection
She didn't smoke, she didn't drink
an introvert according to psychological experts
but she had friends, that were mostly men
that played tricks on her mind, but she didn't bend
unbreakable, sensational, she was quite the charm
in the midst of chaos, she stayed calm
in arguments she said "wait your turn
what's the purpose if you can't debate and learn?"
Quincy and Laverne, Madison, but First
Let me break it down for you cats on earth
Charles was a Saint, although he was a Hustler
turned kids out, but he couldn't touch us
she look you in the eye, before you could lie, you'd cry
"stick to your story" she said
"umm hmm" was her only reply,
'cause she knew game, but still we tried to fool mama
Chorus: Mama...Get Up, Get Up [3x]
This Is Your Resurrection
Unstoppable Cause, no pause, even when the doctor spoke
you didn't listen, regardless of the signs and symptoms
nothing could destroy your position
until it attacked your immune system
Between the clinical visits, the pain,
the brain infection, the changes that you went through
when you said you were tired and couldn't hold on
and you let go, you suffered so long
together so strong, seemed like forever
I didn't have to work hard to make you proud
before you close those curtains, take your bow
I'm going to keep that vow that we secretly made
on that day that your lungs went breathless
I knew it was selfish to keep you here
had your bags packed, a plane ticket, ready to roll
no choice, but to let you go
Chorus: Mama...Get Up, Get Up [3x]
This Is Your Resurrection
