If Only Mama Knew

Chai... if only she knew

The things I don do

Mama... forgive me

I remember when mama dey pray for me every morning

She no know say her pikin don join bad gang oh

Blood for my hand, I no fit count the souls wey don go

Cultism don scatter my life, drugs don make me lose control

I dey see their faces for my dream every night

The people wey I kill, dem dey haunt me till daylight

Mama think say I dey school dey read book

But her son don turn to something wey go make her heart shook

Abeg God, I know say I no deserve am

But have mercy on my soul, make this pain no consume am

If only mama knew

The blood for her pikin hand

If only mama knew

Say I don join the devil plan

If only mama knew

How cultism don destroy her son

If only mama knew

Wetin drugs and crime don make me become

Mama forgive me oh

If only you knew

I remember her smile when she dey send me to school

Now I dey here with gun and knife feeling like a fool

Every trigger I pull, na another mama go cry

Every life wey I take, na another soul go die

I wan tell am say sorry but the words no dey come

How I go face the woman wey born me, carry me for womb?

The drugs don make me numb but the guilt dey heavy

I don stain her name, make shame follow her everywhere steady

God abeg, wash me clean with your mercy

Make my mama no die with this burden wey dey worry me

If only mama knew

The blood for her pikin hand

If only mama knew

Say I don join the devil plan

If only mama knew

How cultism don destroy her son

If only mama knew

Wetin drugs and crime don make me become

Mama forgive me oh

If only you knew

Mama... I'm sorry

God... have mercy

If only she knew...

Chai
