Song lyrics Grandma by Mike Jones

Ohhh grandma (MIKE JONES! Who?)
DJ Slice, tear me up baby, tear me up
This heah for my grandma mayne
I love you baby
The whole family miss you baby
I´m fin´ ta tell the world, how important you was to me

[Chorus: Mike Jones]
Ohhh grandma, I miss you
and wish I could kiss you and hug you girl
Ohhh grandma, I miss you
and wish I could kiss you and hug you girl
The way you used to hold me - the way you used to hold me
The way you used to show me - the way you used to show me
Befo´ you left you told me - befo´ you left you told me
That I was gonna have to keep the family up
(Mike Jones!)

[Mike Jones]
April 14th was when, I felt I lost a friend
I damn near stopped rappin, damn near stopped pimpin pens
Cousin locked in the pen, when will this drama end
I get success but it feels like my stress begins
At 17 thought I was grown, had to move on
Moved out T. Jones home, had to do this on my own
My grandma left my life, I felt it wasn´t right
I get awards and I break down and I cry on sight
Cause she ain´t here with me, but I know she hearin me
Beg and plead, that she could still be here next to me
Even though you passed and left, yo´ memories are kept
In my mind, heart, and soul - even on my shelf
Now I´m left with cousin Shelly, Jessie, and they real, and Gary
(?) and my brother, Uncle June, and my mother and
even though sometimes I get too busy to touch you
From me to y´all I want y´all to know I love you

[Chorus]

[Mike Jones]
Grandma remember when we used to play them bones and you would skunk us
And you never had a problem punkin us in front of company
Wally just had a son - he´s a daddy, I´ma uncle now
Wally just had a son - he´s a daddy, I´ma uncle now
Latran playin ball, I pray to God he goes pro
And Gary Jr. gettin bigger, I just thought I´d let you know
that the family´s okay, everythang´s cool and straight
Juanita and Nicky just told me to tell you they said hey
And I pray day to day that the Lord´ll pave the way
And you keep lookin down here just smilin, just showin ya pretty face
And I still hang around my homies that you see while you were here
Oh and my girl better than ever, she too wish you was here
You know I´m grown now, so I´m puttin food on the table
24 years old and I got my own label
Ice Age Entertainment, we about to take it over
T. Boy rappin now - he´s Mellow, and Wally is Lil´ Soldier
(?) still rolls with me, we close shoulder to shoulder
That gator that you gave my granny I use it to sew the game up
Me and (?) was partners, we both now CEO´s
It´s all good but I wish you was able to see me grow

[Chorus]

[Mike Jones]
Man, it´s crazy, y´knahmsayin?
Dis the main reason here, she the main reason why..
.. y´all listenin to me today, y´knahmsayin?
True story check it out, true story
A lot of people always used to wonder how I got up in the game
Y´knahmsayin? My grandma was, 99.9 percent of the reason y´knahmsayin?
It´s crazy though, I mean, I used to go to strip clubs all the time and
try to get people to listen to my CD, you know?
And they be like who are you? And I´m like "Mike Jones"
And they´d be like WHO, y´knahmsayin?
And I used to always tell my grandma and she used to always tell me
to use that, y´knahmsayin? Cause they gon´ regret what they did to me
Y´knahmsayin? So I started usin it, and it worked, y´knahmsayin?
And.. it´s it´s just crazy mayne y´know?
I started sayin my name a lot - y´knahmsayin?
I started givin my phone number out - y´knahmsayin?
When people was tellin me that it wasn´t gon´ work
My grandma was tellin me to do it, y´knahmsayin?
She told she seen a vision and, that´s a hell of a vision y´knahmsayin?
And.. really I started givin out my album, I started promotin it and
all the stuff that y´all been hearin me do, I got it from her
Y´knahmsayin? And and that´s the main reason, why I´m here today
Y´knahmsayin? And and it´s crazy man, it´s crazy y´know
I´m I´m I´m here and y´all listenin to me, y´know
So I never woulda ever thought..
..that I´d have the whole world listenin to Mike Jones, man, it´s crazy man
I didn´t even wanna use my real name, y´know?
But grandma was like, boy you better use that name
It´s gon´ blow you up one day, y´knahmsayin?
And I was like man you don´t know what´chu talkin about
And now I´m here, "Who is Mike Jones?"
Holla at´cha boy...
