about

This song is dedicated to my mother Hope, Happy Birthday. I love you.

lyrics

[Intro]

Turn my headphones up
Turn em’ louder

[Verse 1]

Couldn’t be more grateful
everyday I tell the lord thank you
To have a woman like you in my life
Navigate me from the wrong to right
Give me vision when I’ve lost plain sight
Ode to Mom
you deserve an endless applause
Been grinding so long
made it look easy
though times was hard
You give me hope

[Chorus]

And it’s as true as they named you
Angel on earth, and I gotta thank Jesus
Mad credit to Mom Dukes
For holding it down staying true
it’s in the bloodline and you laced the sound
Wouldn’t be here if wasn’t for the man upstairs
and you Pops too you know it’s true
And you know it’s true
Angel on earth and I gotta thank Jesus
Mad credit to Mom Dukes

[Verse 2]

Taught me keep my faith in God
Walk the streets with my head tall
Keep my future in check
Word to having my back
Could never thank you enough for that
You deserve the best
For that, I’m on a fast track
With success guided through
the efforts of you saying to adapt
yeah I’m on the map

[Chorus]

And it’s as true as they named you
Angel on earth, and I gotta thank Jesus
Mad credit to Mom Dukes
For holding it down staying true
it’s in the bloodline and you laced the sound
Wouldn’t be here if wasn’t for the man upstairs
and you Pops too you know it’s true

[Verse 3]

I know sometimes I’m stubborn
Don’t mean to cause trouble
You know mom I love you
I owe you the world
a house in the hills
4 door garage
A storefront for your business its real
Whether I sign a deal or do it on my own
I give credit to where its due and you know
I’mma hold the fam down
you showed me the ropes

[Chorus]

And it’s as true as they named you
Angel on earth, and I gotta thank Jesus
Mad credit to Mom Dukes
For holding it down staying true
it’s in the bloodline and you laced the sound
Wouldn’t be here if wasn’t for the man upstairs
and you Pops too you know it’s true
Angel on earth and I gotta thank Jesus
Mad credit to Mom Dukes
And it’s as true as they named you
Angel on earth, and I gotta thank Jesus
Mad credit to Mom Dukes
For holding it down

[Verse 4]

To my mom Hope Juliette,
I truly mixed the beat
this deep how this be
For the woman whose given more
Then the world can see
This feeling bigger than me
Only the best for my mom
and my family we gon’ ride
I love you too Pops
I know sometimes I'm a hard rock
Adulting is hard but I won’t stop
I’m with the program
Goals on a checklist
I’m not out living life reckless
I’m trying to do the best I can to be endless
Limitless potential I’m gon’ make it
I’m trying to do the best
I’m concentrating on being grateful for all things sacred
You give me hope

[Ending chorus]

And as true as they named you
Angel on earth, and I gotta thank Jesus
Mad credit to Mom Dukes
For holding it down staying true
it’s in the bloodline and you laced the sound
Yeah you laced the sound
Taught me what I had to know
You give me hope
And you give me hope

[Outro]

You taught me to stay hopeful, not hopeless
Say use my potential
You give me hope
This goes out to you
Hope Juliette
My mom, I love you
