Mother of a Man
Witnessing a Mother's Plea in a Brutal World
Lyrics
See looka here, wanna see my gun
Expressing the desire to show a firearm (gun) to someone
It's an Uzi and it packs a lot of punch
Describing the gun as an Uzi with significant firepower
It sure is loud, I got it fixed
Highlighting the loudness of the gun and indicating it has been repaired
You wanna feel, you wanna touch this little bitch
Inviting someone to physically experience the gun
I wanna testify, it's a crazy world out there
Expressing a desire to testify about the chaotic and challenging nature of the world
I wanna tell ya now, it's a brutal world out there
Emphasizing the brutality of the world
I'm just a mother of a man
Identifying oneself as the mother of a man
I've got the stopper in my hand
Having control over a stopper, possibly a metaphorical reference to control or restraint
Judge and jury help me please
Seeking help from a judge and jury
Ain't gonna get down on my knees
Refusing to submit or plead excessively
Oh no, god help me now
Appealing for divine assistance
You know my wife, she don't feel safe
Expressing concern for the safety of the speaker's wife
Since we had a lot of trouble near our place
Referring to past troubles near the speaker's residence
These kids are poor, I know it's hard
Acknowledging the difficulty faced by impoverished kids
But why'd they have to do it in their own backyard
Questioning why they engage in troublesome activities in their own community
I wanna testify, it's a crazy world out there
Reiterating the chaotic nature of the world
I don't know what to tell you, it's a barbaric world out there
Describing the world as barbaric
I'm just a mother of a man
Reiterating the role as the mother of a man
I wanna take the witness stand
Expressing a willingness to testify as a witness
Judge and jury help me please
Seeking help from the legal system
The sirens sound, the streets all bleed
Depicting a scene of chaos with sirens and bleeding streets
I'm just a mother of a man
Reiterating the role as the mother of a man
Just a mother of a man
Emphasizing the identity as a mother of a man
Oh yeah, God help me now
Seeking divine assistance again
I wanna testify, it's a crazy, crazy, crazy world out there
Reiterating the craziness of the world
I wanna tell ya now that it's a barbaric world out there
Describing the world as barbaric once more
I'm just a mother of a man
Reiterating the role as the mother of a man
I wanna take the witness stand
Expressing a desire to be a witness
Judge and jury help me please
Seeking assistance from the legal system again
The sirens sigh, the streets all bleed
Depicting a scene with sirens and bleeding streets once more
I'm just a mother of a man
Reiterating the role as the mother of a man
Here I stand, here I stand
Stating the speaker's position and presence
I'm just a mother of a man
Reiterating the role as the mother of a man and seeking divine help
Yeah, God help me now
Seeking divine assistance in the face of challenges
