[Verse 1]
Yeah
You the first one I call when I’m stressed out
Late night talk, you don’t ever get checked out
You stay locked in, every word, every detail
Held me when I slipped, picked me up when I derailed
You packed lunches, packed hope in my backpack
Cheering in the bleachers when I didn’t even clap back
You see more in me than I ever do
If I ever say “I’m strong,” that’s because of you (yeah)
[Chorus]
I’m grateful for my mom, that’s my day-one
Through every storm, you the safe one (you the safe one)
You make me feel loved, really loved, not just said
From the hugs to the prayers by the bed
I’m grateful for my mom, that’s my heart beat
Every step that I take, you behind me
I’m grateful for my mom, that’s my day-one
Everything I am, that’s where it came from (yeah)
[Verse 2]
Remember that trip back home to Muskegon?
Windows down, summer air, we was breathin’
Pointin’ out streets from when you was a kid
Telling me stories ’bout the crazy things you did
We hit that corner store, shared one drink
You laughed so hard that you started to sink
Into the seat, tears runnin’ from your eyes
I saw the little girl inside you come alive
[Chorus]
I’m grateful for my mom, that’s my day-one
Through every storm, you the safe one (you the safe one)
You make me feel loved, really loved, not just said
From the hugs to the prayers by the bed
I’m grateful for my mom, that’s my heart beat
Every step that I take, you behind me
I’m grateful for my mom, that’s my day-one
Everything I am, that’s where it came from (came from)
[Bridge]
You call me “baby” even when I act grown (yeah)
Check on my mind more than you check on my phone
If the world feel cold and the nights get long
I just hear your voice and I feel that strong (feel that strong)
[Chorus]
I’m grateful for my mom, that’s my day-one
Through every storm, you the safe one
You make me feel loved, really loved, not just said
From the hugs to the prayers by the bed
I’m grateful for my mom, that’s my heart beat
Every step that I take, you behind me
I’m grateful for my mom, that’s my day-one
Everything I am, that’s where it came from
