Lyrics of Kill Your Mama by Alicia Keys
verse
Shame on us
All your sons and daughters
Thieve all your gold
And we poisoned all your waters
Every piece of our soul is for sale
Now they bought us
Think we know it all
Then look where it got us
chorus
Oh, mama, mama
Oh, mama, mama
We're crying to the wind
verse
Trying to play God
We been fucking with genetics
All that you have given
And we only disrespected
The rate that we're going
Premature Armageddon
That's what gonna happen if we let it
chorus
Oh, mama, mama
Oh, mama, mama
We're crying to the wind
chorus
Is there any saving us
We've become so dangerous
Is there any changing us
Even for the sake of love
How you gonna kill your mama
When only mama's gonna love you to the grave
verse
Killing ourselves
Falling down with a sickness
Money is the king
It's a dirty bloody business
There will be no trial
But the child will always witness
If we are in love with hell
Why the hell would heaven visit
chorus
Oh, mama, mama
Oh, mama, mama
We're crying to the wind
verse
When mama gets the belt
You gon' wish we didn't do it
Had your chance for redemption
But you fucking blew it
Now the weather is changing
And the hurricane is moving
Right in your direction
What direction are you choosing
pre-chorus
Oh, mama, mama
Oh, mama, mama
Forgive us for your pain
chorus
Is there any saving us
We've become so dangerous
Is there any changing us
Even for the sake of love
How you gonna kill your mama
When only mama's gonna love you to the grave
outro
To the grave
How we gonna kill your mama
How you gonna kill your mama
