Way Up - Jay-Way

Momma told me one day you gon' shine like a star

Just promise that you will not forget who you are

Don’t forget to call me when your on your way up

When your on your way up, way up

Wouldn’t be here without momma

I know you dropped

Lots of tears for me momma

Yes I know that we’ve done been through some drama

But you we’re here for me momma

One of the reasons I glow

That’s why I’m writing this piece so you know

It’s been a while since I wrote from the soul

I’m in the booth with a lump in my throat, yeah

And I know a lot of people never thought that i would make it

I admit in a way I always felt like you related

Always felt I degraded from the people that I rolled with

And the people that I dated, I know that you always wanted me to get an

education

And it took a lot of time it was worth all the waiting

You want what’s best for me

But just leave the rest to me

Momma told me one day you gon' shine like a star

Just promise that you will not forget who you are

Don’t forget to call me when your on your way up

When your on your way up, way up

Taught me to find balance between my head and my heart

And you taught me to solve the puzzle when I’m missing a part

I won’t forget to call you when I’m on my way up

When I’m on my way up, way up

Sorry Momma, sorry Momma

Couldn’t pick up but I’m thinking of you

When I’m on the road don’t be afraid

Just want you to know that I’m okay

Sometimes I’m away for a month maybe two

I know that life can be rough so do you

I need to find my own way to get through

Momma told me one day you gon' shine like a star

Just promise that you will not forget who you are

Don’t forget to call me when your on your way up

When your on your way up, way up

Taught me to find balance between my head and my heart

And you taught me to solve the puzzle when I’m missing a part

I won’t forget to call you when I’m on my way up

When I’m on my way up, way up

I would’ve never been me without you

You know I’m never complete without you

And I won’t forget to call you when I’m on my way up, way up
