Kanye West - Hey Mama

A mãe do Kanye West morreu em Novembro. No primeiro concerto depois da sua morte, em Paris, começou a chorar e não conseguiu cantar a música "Hey Mamma", que tinha sido composta para o álbum Late Registration, quando esta ainda era viva. Ontem, nos Grammys, prestou-lhe homenagem.

Forrest Gump mama said, life is like a box of chocolates
My mama told me go to school, get your doctorate
Somethin to fall back on, you could profit with
But still supported me when I did the opposite
Now I feel like it’s things I gotta get
Things I gotta do, just to prove to you
You was getting through, can the choir please
Give me a verse of “You, Are So Beautiful To Me”
Can’t you see, you’re like a book of poetry
Maya Angelou, Nicky Giovanni, turn one page and there’s my mommy
