Single mama

Hook)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Otro, Otro, uh

Mmm, mmm, uh, mmm, yeah-yeah

(Verse)

Mama on the block, she don’t sleep (nah)

Counting up the change, ’cause the rent ain’t cheap (count, count)

Broken heart, heels cracked, still she move sleek

Smile on her face, hiding pain so deep

Groceries in hand, every bag ten pounds

Shorty on her hip, world spinnin’ around

Moonlight whispers, prayers with no sound

Dreams on layaway, hope never drown

(Pre chorus)

Whippin’ that cart, food stamps in her sleeve

Neighbors all judging, Otro don’t believe

Diamonds in her eyes, but her tears won’t leave

Lonely in the struggle, what a girl gon’ achieve?

(Hook)

Yeah, Otro know, Otro see

Single mama grindin’ just to let her baby eat

Yeah, Otro know, Otro see

Big dreams in the ghetto, that’s the legacy

(Verse)

Bills on the counter, stress in the air

Pockets real light, but she don’t despair

Running through the rain, lint tangled in her hair

Every single night, whisperin’ a prayer

Dollar in a jar, tryna make it last

Past full of shadows, future movin’ fast

No one to call, so she build her own path

Otro in the mirror, I see the struggle in the glass

(Bridge)

“Mom, why we hungry?” Tears on the floor

Otro hear the silence, Otro want more

Ramen in the kitchen, wishes in the drawer

Love in her voice, rich in her core

(Hook)

Yeah, Otro know, Otro see

Single mama grindin’ just to let her baby eat

Yeah, Otro know, Otro see

Big dreams in the ghetto, that’s the legacy

(Outro)

Yo, Otro mumble for the mamas on the block (yeah)

Every pain, every gain, every tick of the clock

Otro see you, Otro feel you, Otro never stop

From the struggle to the summit, Otro rise to the top

Yeah-yeah, Otro, Otro

Moms up, never drop

Porque music!

Porque music!
