Seven years old, caught you with tears in your eyes
Cuz a nigga cheatin, telling you lies, then I started to cry
As we knelt on the kitchen floor
I said mommy I'mma love you till you don't hurt no more
from Kanye West – Hey Mama Lyrics on Rap Genius
Meaning
Kanye gets very personal in these few lines about presumably a man who Donda West (Kanye’s mother) was in a relationship and caught him cheating. Seeing his mother in this emotional state then caused Kanye to sympathize by also crying. He then goes on to explain how he comforted her as best he could as a seven year old.
