All the days I was tripping and falling All the slops I was trickling down All the days I was looking for something I just thank god you were around I just thank god you were around I just thank god you were around Gotta dedicate it to my mum Lucy She is cool as a cucumber straight as judge Judy My dad is grand, no dis to him either But he left when I was eight, I guess he didn't need her Then our nuclear fam was Hiroshima I was young and bitter I would give her the middle finger Like “fuck you” “I hate you” “why can’t you get me this” She said “I would if I could tom we’re penniless” And she was there trying to turn around my negatives Through all my broken hearts and my many tiffs Had a full time job and she raised us up And we were all bad boys like and puff Couldn't have everything but she gave us love Everything was tough, now I can’t say thanks enough Cause she gave up her life to cater mine So I want to prove it’s not a waste of time All the days I was tripping and falling All the slops I was trickling down All the days I was looking for something I just thank god you were around I just thank god you were around I just thank god you were around My mum told me that in this life somebody wins And if you work hard you can be who that somebody is My mum told me to go my own direction So when I’d get suspended shed just pay it no attention Guess she had more faith than even I did But I would do right because she told me what right is Even when we didn't have money to buy shit She’d spend her last dollar so I could wear the fly shit And I would sneak out to do graffiti on a weekday She’d text me and say ‘wear your mask and be safe’ She’d even pick me up when the police came So, I'm sorry mum for all the worry I create With two parents things might have been different Maybe more money, might have had more discipline I wouldn't change a thing though and neither would she Love to my mum for going singularly All the days I was tripping and falling All the slops I was trickling down All the days I was looking for something I just thank god you were around I just thank god you were around I just thank god you were around Ah yeah, single mother song single mother song Ah single mother song Yeah I love you mum Ah single mother song single mother song Single mother song Yeah I love you mum so much Ah I love you mum so much This the single mother song
