Mama

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

(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

And I miss you, yeah, 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

'Cause 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

And 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

'Cause I know you believed in all of my dreams

And I owe it all to you, mama
