Mama Mama Look at Me
U.S. Military Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I ain't never felt a pain like this
Remember sunny days? I swear it never used to rained like this
I ain't never felt a pain like this
But here we are two souls that have separated
Who'd have thought you and I would've ever dated
We proved them all wrong, every single one of them hated
And of all of these couples you and I were my favorite (DAMN)
Burned hotter than the suns bright kiss
I could've never imagined the flame dying down like this
Late in the night, fighting tears back as I write this
I won't lie it took a while to get over you
No more sneaking from behind, grabbing a hold of you
We was lover and now we're former acquaintances
You know it's really over when you find texts and erase the shit

Pin my medals upon my chest

I love your voice so much. It takes a lot for someone to put themselves out especially here on YouTube. I am super proud of you. I can't wait to see you live again. 🥰

Thank you my buddy in the Army sang this cadence to me and my husband that is retired navy showed me this one and I sent my buddy this cadence and it made him cry. He told me it brought back memories of when he was in boot camp. He’s a Sergeant. My adopted son is in the navy and sent me Full Metal Jacket 10 minutes ago. Thank you so much for doing these. I have a lot of respect for you and all of our Military personal and their families for what they go through.
