Mama thank you for who I am
Thank you for all the things I'm not
Forgive me for the words unsaid
For the times I forgot
Mama remember all my life
You showed me love, you sacrificed
Think of those young and early days
How I've changed along the way
And I know you believed
And I know you had dreams
And I'm sorry it took all this time to see
That I am where I am because of your truth
I miss you, I miss you
Mama forgive the times you cried
Forgive me for not making right
All of the storms I may have caused
And I've been wrong, dry your eyes, dry your eyes
And I know you believed
And I know you had dreams
And I'm sorry it took all this time to see
That I am where I am because of your truth
I miss you, I miss you
Mama I hope this makes you smile
I hope you're happy with my life
At peace with every choice I made
How I've changed along the way
And I know you believed in all my dreams
And i owe it all to you
Mama
She used to be my only
enemy and never let me be
free
Catching me in places that I
knew I shouldn't be
Every other day I crossed the
line
I didn't mean to be so
bad
I never thought you would become
the friend I never had
Back then I didn't know why
why you were misunderstood
So now I see through your
eyes
All that you did was love
Mama I love you
Mama I care
Mama I love you
Mama my friend
You're my friend
I didn't want to hear it
then but
I'm not ashamed to say it now
Every little thing you said and
did was right for me
I had a lot of time
to think about
about the way I used to be
Never had a sense of my
responsibility
Back then I didn't know why
why you were misunderstood
So now I see through your
eyes
All that you did was love
Mama I love you
Mama I care
Mama I love you
Mama my friend
You're my friend.....
