My mother died last week, and the pain I feel about this loss is very great and every time I listen (before she dies) and listen to this song, I remember how much she sacrificed for me, for my family (brothers and father ) and close friends to have the maximum of happiness, health, comfort and chances of growing in the possible life. I am grateful for the best mother in the world I had, who taught me countless things and who formed me in the man I am today. I want to be able to realize some of your dreams as a way to show you that your effort was not in vain. May God give me the strength to continue living without my great mother, and let him reserve a beautiful place for you to rest in peace, and may the lady always look for me to direct me to the right path always. I love you and I will always love you Mom
Actually Lucious realised all the shit he done to Cookie with this song. This is wherre he decided to do his plan to go back to Cookie that we see in the season finale. He enlisted Jamal's help for this.
@@xthefordx naw it was the other song he asked him to not sing that real hit him the one calling him out on his shit even cook didn't want him to Air the song
This mad me cry. Women go through and do so much and most times it’s unappreciated. Feels good to hear a son sing this to his mom. I hope my boys appreciate everything i do for them.
Amen going through it and listening to this song get me through this heartache and pain with my mom having stage 4 kidney failure. Lord take the wheel because you have the final say so
The way he sings about his mom is so wonderful. My favorite part is, "Although Lucious raised us, you still made us from the start. Mama, my mom... " Made me cry😭
Listen mama, so many words to describe you Strong would be an understatement Warrior would suit you so much better 'Cause you've been fighting She was just turning sixteen Daddy left her out in the cold streets He wasn't having it He found all her sins underneath her mattress Then suddenly her daddy up and died But still she sees her father there in Lucious' eyes Mama, oh mama For everything you've been through, there's nothing that I won't do for you Mama, oh mama See you deserve the best of what this world can offer to you Mama I love you, mama, mama, mama I do love you Mama I love you, mama, mama In love with the thought of becoming queen She never told, she did seventeen She gave it all so unselfishly And she did it all just for loyalty, that's my mama I never knew someone to sacrifice, everything for love Even gave up their whole lives Oh mama For everything you've been through, nothing that I won't do for you Oh mama See you deserve the best of what this world can offer You're the reason for my being here Mama I'm so grateful, yes I am I'm gon' be the one to guide your heart Although Lucious raised us, you still made us from the sun Mama, oh mama For everything you've been through, there's nothing that I wouldn't do for you Oh mama See you deserve the best of what this world can offer to you
oh ok so it's gay to love your mother who gave birth to you and helped you throughout you life and you have a talent and choose to use it to make a song for her. yup appreciating your mom its real gay. btw if you haven't figured it out already you're an idiot
I'll pray for you lol😂😂 cause you're basically you're saying showing love for your mom is gay because the character jamal is gay. what a small mind you have. Hope youre mom taught you how yo read or this might be too much words for you
Cookie love them differently but yet equally!❤️ she don’t have faves but gonna say Jamal was always the one who’s there for her most out of her three sons!!!
I think its more cus she was in his corner more and i think it came out that aundre the oldest isnt her son? But she still loved him as such i dunno stopped watching for a while but i remeber hakeem asking y she loves jamal more “ i dont baby i just know him better” hakeem was a baby/ toddler while she was on the inside that power struggle was funny to watch every minute cookie was grabbin for a broom to beat hakeem ass 😂
Celebrate her, honor her, tell her you love her, spend time with her as much and as often as you can, while you can. Those are the moments you'll have to hold on to when she is no longer here. I wish I had more

I love this song cause it was my dedication to my mother. She was a single mom and I still never lacked anything. Thank you mom May your soul rest in eternal peace
I always cry when I listen to this my mum died in 09 from cancer back then I was younger and didn't understand the condition and thought going with my friends was more important. I wish my mum was here now to see that I've grown up now and a different person and if I could push the reset button maybe I could be able to do it differently 😢
Listen mama, so many words to describe you Strong would be an understatement Warrior would suit you so much better 'Cause you've been fighting She was just turning 16 Daddy left her out in the cold streets He wasn't having it He found all her sins underneath her mattress [Pre-Chorus] Then suddenly her daddy up and died But still she sees her father there in Lucious eyes [Chorus] Mama, oh mama For everything you've been through, there's nothing that I won't do for you Mama, oh mama See you deserve the best of what this world can offer to you Mama I love you, mama, mama, mama I do love you Mama I love you, mama, mama [Verse 2] In love with the thought of becoming queen She never told, she did seventeen She gave it all so unselfishly And she did it all just for loyalty, that's my mama [Pre-Chorus] I never knew someone to sacrifice, everything for love Even gave up their whole lives [Chorus] Mama, oh mama For everything you've been through, nothing that I won't do for you Oh mama See you deserve the best of what this world can offer [Bridge] You're the reason for my being here Mama I'm so grateful, yes I am I'm gon' be the one to guide your heart Although Luscious raised us, you still made us from the sun [Chorus] Mama, oh mama For everything you've been through, there's nothing that I wouldn't do for you Oh mama See you deserve the best of what this world can offer to you
The line she said in the first season, "What have I done to you for you to treat me this way?" Now, we realize that she gave up everything for Lucious, who she truly was and who she could have been for his love. And for that she was forever changed into this warrior we now know as "Cookie". Jamal embodied his mother in song to let the world know that the person you see isn't the person she truly is. Simply Beautiful
This man voice is amazing idc what anybody think about this man is talented asf & need to get back on his grind to it he deserves another chance just like every 1
My momma loved empire. she would always watch it with me. & she got cancer & passed away almost a year ago. she was my rock. but i know she got her angel wings now. but i miss her so much, love you momma
may good bring good things. On the 1st I lost my bestfann and before she left my house we was watching empire. He's got pretty things for the one's whose hurting.
So sorry for your lost. Those out here that do have momma (including me) should really be thankful and grateful because you only get one chance to live, once your gone your gone.
When lucious gets mad it makes me think that he cant deal with the truth that happened . The how cookie sees how much love her sons have for her. And hakeem for staying to support it all.
1:36 really hit home for LUCIOUS he got outta there real FAST 😂. In LOVE with the THOUGHT of BECOMING QUEEN she NEVER TOLD she DID 17 she gave it all so UNSELFISHLY she did it just for LOYALTY that's my MAMA 💯
this song had me in my feelings Jamal sing that song so beautiful...I don't have any words to describe this but true love between cookie and luscious ❤
Jamal's music can always break through to his family no matter how fucked up their situations are. It's the foil for everyone: Provides Hakeem an adversary plus gives him great collaborations, calms Andre down when he starts breaking down mentally, provides solace for Cookie and tributes to her struggles & even brings Lucious down from his "God-complex" and reminds him that he's still only human.
She sees her Dad in Lucious’s eyes my favorite line 😢What a Beautiful touching tribute Jussie sings it So tenderly So wonderfully warm - he is a magical musicalabd gifted Beautiful man 🥰
This song is teaching us how much your mother has sacrificed so much for you to be the successful person you are and in return you give her all the respect she deserves in the success you made. My mama did this for me, can anyone do the same thing?
Cookie and lucious, cookie literally gave up 17 years of her life for this man wow, i can't imagine what she went through, he never even visit her not once 🤦🏾♀️
No, no, he doesn’t… guy is a disgrace… and I watch empire because of jussie smollet… he was my fav actor on the show and becoming one of my favorite musical artist… but he threw that away with a race bating lie… he deserves NOTHING!!! But I will come back and enjoy his performances before he lost it in the head… these moment on empire will always be something I will enjoy…
Monique Jones it's just some people don't like to see others doing good or they just want to ruin others people joy for the song. Then again there could be other reasons why the don't like it. Maybe because of the autotune. But who knows
empire hits that broke the internet: season 1 = keep it movin and no apol. season2= crown,dynasty and so much more season 3= way to many to count season 4= wayyyyy to many to count season 5= nothing at all
This song sums up the unique relationship my mom and I have!!!! There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for her, she’s a queen and a wonderful person. She raised me to be a good man. I always tear up hearing this song, it makes me think of my mama
