lyrics

CHORUS (x2): hey mama, where’s you go? // left ya baby all alone // deep in my heart is bottomless sorrow // cause a mother’s love I’ll (I’ve) never know (known) // VERSE 1: mama you bore me, but maybe I bored you // I would imagine flying, the clouds I would soar through // at the end my destination was always before you // you were the answer to life like the numbers 4-2 // mother you had me, but I never had you // the words of Lennon sting like daggers of pure truth // I pretended I didn’t care like it didn’t faze me // my outward appearance was laid back and lazy // but inside my heart is a torrent of emotion // constant ups and downs like waves in the ocean // under the moon and stars I would fantasize // that you were gazing at the same night sky // but when I couldn’t sleep it’s back to reality // a small child sad that mama’s mad at me // you could liken me to a weeping willow // when you were gone in the night like teeth under a pillow // BRIDGE: don’t go // don’t go // don’t go // don’t go, no, don’t go // CHORUS x2 // BRIDGE x2 // VERSE 2: all my life has been a constant search // to replace the woman, who gave me birth // called my grandma ‘mom’ for the longest time // was the kindest lady from my father’s side // and of course my pops did all he could // but I feel like half of me will be lost for good // had a couple of aunts that made me feel at home // but I couldn’t shake the feeling of being alone // it was constant conflict with my step mother // we were always obnoxious to one another // in all our struggles I’d be on the losing end // grounded in my room again and again // couldn’t stand her then // but now I see // she really only wanted what was best for me // did what she could to raise me as her own // but I couldn’t shake the feeling of being alone // cold, cold world without a warm nurturer // wanted to search for her // I wonder if it hurts for her // of my heart, my mother was a murderer // she had a another son, I couldn’t find another her // but I was lucky to have some strong women in my life // they give me the image of what I want in my wife // they give me the love that I’d never known // but can’t shake the feeling of being alone // BRIDGE // CHORUS x2 // BRIDGE x2 // CHORUS x2 // BRIDGE x3

about

Hopudoshi Columbus, Ohio

Hopudoshi is an American rap artist who currently resides in the Philippines. His introspective rhymes offer social commentary with a mystical bent.

Hopudoshi, Hopanova, and Hop-Leo all represent different sides of my personality. Sometimes they are in harmony and sometimes they are in conflict. The differences between them are the reason for some of my ambivalent feelings towards certain issues.
