I get success but it feels like my stress begins At 17 thought I was grown, had to move on Moved out Jones home, had to do this on my own My grandma left my life, I felt it wasn't right I get awards and I break down and I cry on sight My grandma left my life, I felt it wasn't right I get awards and I break down and I cry on sight My grandma left my life, I felt it wasn't right I get awards and I break down and I cry on sight
'Cause she ain't here with me, but I know she hearin' me Beg and plead, that she could still be here next to me Even though you passed and left, yo' memories are kept In my mind, heart, and soul even on my shelf Now I'm left with cousin Jessie and Me and my brother June, my mother and Even though sometimes I get too busy to touch you From me to y'all I want y'all to know I love you
