 [The "o" or "oo" at the end of words or sentences in certain West African languages/pidgins adds emphasis to those words similar to the English word "really".]

"You didn’t catch me fake
Here's your mmre
Mom, here's your mmre
Here's your mmre
Take someone and come here eh eh"

Does "mmre" mean something like "commemoration"/"tribute"
