You & The 6 Lyrics - Drake

1 Having conversations with mama, man my life is a mess

2 Ain't been returning the texts, so she been reading the press

3 She got Google alerts, them shits go straight to her phone

4 She worry bout me from home, you know she raised me alone

5 She said "I heard you back with you know who

6 I told her "Girl I'm always back with you know who"

7 And she like "Who are we kidding

8 You're only 27 you just being you

9 You're your fathers child man thank god you got some me in you"

10 At least I always, at least I always see it through

11 At least I'm always being true to what you taught me

12 Retired teacher but your words still got me evolving

13 Never get sloppy drunk, but alcohol is problem solving

14 And look I hate it when you hate on all my girlfriends

15 And assistants always convinced that there's always someone better

16 Like that girl from that gym who trains you

17 I know you wanna arrange it, you told me she's free Thursday

18 And I'm sure that she's a angel but she don't want this life

19 The timing ain't right

20 Maybe one day but even one day with us is a time of a life

21 We do things that people pay to document

22 You got the sweetest heart but I'm not here to give out compliments, or boost nobody confidence momma

23 I got no friends in this momma

24 I don't pretend with this momma

25 I'on joke with this momma

26 I pull the knife out my back and cut they throat with it momma

27 I'm "Game of Thrones" with it momma

28 I'm " Home Alone" with it momma

29 I'm t-

30 I really hate using this tone with you momma

31 I really hate getting aggressive on this phone with you momma

32 I really hate wasting your time to check a clone or two momma

33 It's just they cloning me momma

34 Them niggas wannabes momma

35 Its like - I'm the one they wanna be momma

36 I just- I- I can't be out here being vulnerable momma

37 I mean I kill em every time they do a song with me momma

38 I sing a hook they sing along with me momma

39 What more they want from me momma?

40 Yeah, this is a crazy life

41 But you and the six raised me right

42 "Don't ever take advice," that was great advice

43 You and the six raised me right, that shit saved my life

44 Having conversations with momma, we start talkin' bout dad

45 You know he dropping a single, he saying this is his window

46 That nigga still wearing linen, that nigga still in the club

47 Call him after we get off the phone and show him some love

48 That nigga Memphis for real, girl he love you to death

49 He made mistakes throughout his life that he still doesn't accept

50 But he just want our forgiveness, and fuck it look how we living

51 I'm content with this story, who are we not to forgive him?

52 At least I been to a prison, at least I know what it's like

53 I used to rap on the phone, one of his friends doing life

54 And now I got me a Grammy, that could be part of the reason

55 Let's just call this shit even, we got some things to believe in

56 Do you remember back to Weston Road, Scarlett Road?

57 Hangin' with Aaron Bell and Reny shit could've gone south for me he looked out for me ma

58 He never let me do drugs

59 He let me shoot a gun one summer but out there everyone does

60 He made me listen to his music, old music, soul music

61 Shit that can only be created if you go through it

62 I used to get teased for being black, and now I'm here and I'm not black enough

63 'Cause I'm not acting tough or making stories up bout where I'm actually from

64 But I just roll with it momma, rolling stone with it momma

65 Gotta be careful around rolling stones or anyone that's tryna throw stones at me momma

66 I'm not condoning it momma

67 They will not tear nothing down I built this home for you momma

68 Know I don't call enough momma

69 I just been working with so little time for personal momma

70 Hard labor let me pay the price

71 You and the six raised me right that shit saved my life
