[Intro]
Ah
Ah, woah, woah
Ah-ah

[Pre-Chorus]
When I was 18 my mama went in my closet, found ten thousand cash (Yeah)
Now I got her transit number, send her twenty racks (Racks)
Our future set, you ain't gotta worry about the past
Gettin' money nonstop, I hope it last
Went shopping the whole day, she be surprised my credit card ain't maxed (Unlimited)
Whatever she need, I'm buying, she ain't gotta ask (She ain't gotta ask)
Even though she ain't perfect, I know that she got my back
No matter what I spend, I don't think I could pay her back

[Chorus]
Mama, mama, mama
I just made a little change, mama (Just a little bit)
I just got a little fame, mama
But my heart won't ever change, mama
Mama, mama, mama (Mama)
I just made a little change, mama (Just a little bit)
I just got a little fame, mama
But my heart won't ever change, mama (I won't ever change)

[Verse 1]
Said she don't care about Sha-nay-nay, she just want to see her baby (Her baby)
I ain't been home in a while, the city kinda crazy
Blow a bag on you, don't try tellin' me to save it
She ain't got a clue about what these labels pay me
I was going to get it, I told you I ain't lazy
I know I been buying you lots of bags lately
In the store, they ask who it's for, "A special lady?"
It ain't for my girl, it's for the one that made me

[Pre-Chorus]
When I was 18 my Mama went in my closet, found ten thousand cash
Now I got her transit number, send her twenty racks (Racks)
Our future set, you ain't gotta worry about the past
Gettin' money nonstop, I hope it last
Went shopping the whole day, she be surprised my credit card ain't maxed (Unlimited)
Whatever she need, I'm buying, she ain't gotta ask (She ain't gotta ask)
Even though she ain't perfect, I know that she got my back (Got my back)
No matter what I spend, I don't think I could pay her back

[Chorus]
Mama, mama, mama
I just made a little change, mama (Just a little bit)
I just got a little fame, mama
But my heart won't ever change, mama
Mama, mama, mama (Mama)
I just made a little change, mama (Just a little bit)
I just got a little fame, mama
But my heart won't ever change, mama

[Beat Switch]

[Refrain]
Why you cryin', mama? (Why you cryin'?)
I know my life has been surprising, mama
You say the old me is dyin', mama (Mama)
Say I'm happy, you know that I'm lying, mama (Yeah)
You gotta tell me why you cryin', mama
These different pills that you been finding, mama
You worried that your son is dying, mama
Say I'm happy, you know that I'm lying, mama

[Verse 2]
She don't want no presents, she just want my presence
She retire, I'll give her a mil like "What's a pension?"
All she tell me is save money and count all my blessings
Frequent shopping, now my closet got designer sections (Mama)
She told me stay humble, but I want it all
I'm shooting all the shots for all the times I couldn't ball
Ashamed at how I been livin', I don't wanna take your call
My fam that turned they back on me, I don't miss them at all
Fuck 'em all, yeah yeah, fuck 'em all
They want me to fall, I just stack my money tall
Cut 'em off, yeah, cut 'em off
We'll never be the same, I'm cut from a different cloth

[Refrain]
Why you cryin', mama? (Why you cryin'?)
I know my life has been surprising, mama
You say the old me is dyin', mama (Mama)
Say I'm happy, you know that I'm lying, mama
You gotta tell me why you cryin', mama (Why you cryin'?)
These different pills that you been finding, mama (Why you cryin'?)
You worried that your son is dying, mama (Why you cryin'?)
Say I'm happy, you know that I'm lying, mama (Why you cryin'?)
(Why you cryin'?
Why you cryin'?)

NAV

Navraj Singh Goraya (born November 3, 1989), popularly known as NAV, is an Indian-Canadian recording artist, record producer, and engineer from Rexdale, Ontario, Canada, a district of Toronto. His parents are both from the state of Punjab in India and are fluent in the Punjabi language; NAV himself is fluent in both English and Punjabi and practices the religion of Sikhism, the religion the majority of Punjabs practice.

Following in the footsteps of Canadian singer The Weeknd, the co-founder and leader of XO and a frequent collaborator of his, NAV has preferred to let his SoundCloud do the talking in the early stages of his career. Although going largely unnoticed at the time of its release, NAV’s first noteworthy production credit was in July 2015 when he helped co-produce Drake’s diss track towards Meek Mill, “Back to Back.”

After hearing a string of successful SoundCloud hits, including the self-produced “Myself,” in 2016, Amir “Cash” Esmailian,, the co-founder and manager of XO, reached out to NAV, giving him an opportunity to expand from the revolutionary music platform. NAV has grabbed numerous features since linking up with The Weeknd and the rest of XO, consisting of Belly, 88GLAM, and Black Atlass. His first and arguably most recognizable feature (which he also solely produced) is Travis Scott’s September 2016 song, “beibs in the trap,” from Travis' sophomore studio album, Birds in the Trap Sing McKnight.
