Lyrics Wretch 32 – Mummy’s Boy

All they tried to burn me
Call me mummy’s boy say I’m girly
Well he’s gone into her house, guess I’m Hercules
Worldly

When I look in the mirror I see my mummy, boy
All my four different sisters look like my mummy, boy
See now I work for a living ’cause of my mummy, boy
‘Cause she was handling business when I was unemployed
When I took a turn for the worst I needed my mummy, boy
Tell the truth, I just wanted to hear «I love you, boy»
What a world of a woman, that’s just my mummy, boy
And now I worship my woman ’cause of my mummy, boy
I’ve been conditioned to better my living conditions
Five women I grew up with gave me strong vision
Became the man of the house and replaced the man missing
That’s when you saw mummy’s boy and saw there’s a dad in him
Mummy’s boy all you want
‘Cause this mummy’s boy’s all she’s got
We got stronger every time we lost
It’s like she stirred courage in that corned beef pot

Yeah, now I’ve got a daughter and she’s daddy’s girl
I tell her she’s important ’cause she’s daddy’s girl
I’ll hold you together in this shattered world
Social media won’t affect you like the man himself
Think I gave a fuck about op, when my daughter had a op
Had a feeling in my heart but if she needs it then I’ll swap in a second, I’ll put me second
Hoping I can make it to Heaven to see my bredrin

I been feeling like myself lately
Hearing children that are really tryna imitate me
When I’m, one of one not one of many
If they’re claiming they’re a hundred to one it’s gotta be pennies
Tell the country they can count on the sun, to be magnetic
Pull you closer then be picking you up, its just calisthenics
Being helpful that’s a trait from my mum
Getting pro position that’s the formula one
Still I drove you up the wall, borrowed your car, breezed from the constable
Still you try defend me, you’d rather them put the cuffs on you
Probably give your life twice over to see I’m comfortable
That’s why I’d give my life twice over to give you life support
There’s something about a woman, we just think about putting our something in a woman
I’ll tell you that there’s power in empowering a woman
Every time I fell I got picked up by a woman so
(I hope the crown don’t weigh you down)

I hope the crown don’t weigh you down
I’ll pick you up if it does
You built the throne on your ones
At home trying it on
And hope to become, like you

I hope the crown don’t weigh me down
You’ll pick me up if it does
I’m on the throne on my ones
Also ready for my son
That’s fit for a king, like you
I hope the crown don’t weigh me down
