Voicemail

I'm not perfect, I'm not perfect, I'm not even close (Yep)
I was raised by three women, kept me on me toes (True)
And my father left for months
He had to get the dough (Get the dough)
Up north, surveying roads in the winter snow (Winter snow)
So as a young kid, I didn't see him much (Ayy)
Getting raised by three women wasn't easy, but
It helped me see the world with a proper vision
Katey better at debating then Hillary Clinton
And Amanda always making it harder to sneak out
With my homies drinking beers, puffing on sativa
And they always stuck beside me, supported the rapping
But if I called a girl "bitch," then they would bitch slap me (Hey)
Man, I love you two girls, made me into a man
And now I'm blowin' up your phone every time that I can (Hey)
Like, "What you doing? When you gon' go come see your brother?"
I'm sending love from LA, use this song as letter
Funny no matter how far, we always come together
And now you girls grown up, lookin' brilliant as ever
I was raised by women, give my praise to women
So this song's dedicated to today's new women

Hi, son, this is your mama callingI haven't from you for a while
And I was wondering what you guys have been up to over there
Anyways, dear, I also wanted to tell you how much I love you
And I am so very proud of you, sweetheart
I can't wait to see you
Okay, dear, talk soon

Yeah, yeah
And to our mama, how you make it through all of this shit? (Yeah)
We was too young to even understand what you did (True)
You define strong woman taught us to be strong (Hey)
So when it hit the fan, you acted like ain't nothing was wrong
Always instilled in your kids to follow our heart
And if we stick together, we never falling apart (Fall apart)
I remember hearing wine glasses breaking down stairs (Yeah)
You and daddy fighting, maybe a little impaired, but
You were kids when you married
And you were kids when you had us
I'm so proud that you found my stepdad 'cause he happens
To be someone in my life taught me more than my own did
Mark, I never mention you in my songs, so I'ma own this
You make my mom happy, never seen her so perfect
Turning 60 this year, living the life that she's deserving
I was raised by women, give my praise to women
So this song's dedicated to today's new women

Hi, sweetie
You know, I was just calling to remind you
That you're very, very, very lucky to get married to me
And, um, I hope that you think about that every day
And also, I just wanted to say that I love you very much
You are everything to me
Love you, baby, bye

You my rock, yeah, you my sun
Yeah, you my brightest light (Yeah, yeah)
I could never picture me without you in my life (Life, life)
My pen could never find the perfect words for me to write (Hey)
How I feel about a woman I chose for my wife (Hey)
And when my papa passed, I couldn't look you in the eye (No, no)
You had patience when I didn't and you gave me time (Gave me time)
Now I'ma give you everything that I have inside
Got on one knee for one of five times I've seen you cry (Woo)
And I remember when I met you I was like (I was like)
"Do you like J. Cole?" You said, "Who's that?" (Who that?)
I found that shit so funny, when I asked you what you listen to
You replied Beyoncé and ended that at that (That at that)
Ayy, and since that moment I knew what I wanted (Yeah)
You taught me the power of being honest
I was raised by women (Whoa), give my praise to women (Whoa)
So this song's dedicated to today's new women
