[Chorus]
Mama said "Watch who you keep around
They gon' try to bring you down
Watch who gon' leave you when you need 'em
They won't be around"
I know they hated on me then but they gon' see me now
I know they hated on me then but they gon'—
Mama said "Watch who you keep around
They gon' try to bring you down
Watch who gon' leave you when you need 'em
They won't be around"
I know they see me now, they probably wanna be me now
I know they see me now, they probably wanna be me now (Be me now)
