(Verse 1)
She didn’t need a stage to glow,
Daray shined anywhere she’d go.
With open arms and steady hands,
She held us up, she helped us stand.
She could see the beauty we tried to hide,
Pulled us close when the world wasn’t kind.
She wasn’t just a drag mother—we called her “Mom” with pride,
‘Cause she loved us with a fire you could feel from inside.
(Pre-Chorus)
And every lesson she gave came wrapped in grace,
A smile that warmed the coldest place…
(Chorus)
Oh Daray, your heart was bigger than the sky,
You’d give the shirt off your back without asking why.
You lifted us when we felt we had nothing left,
You gave us love, you gave us breath.
Taken too soon, but your warmth stays intact—
We carry your kindness everywhere we act.
Oh Daray, we miss you, but your love lights our path—
Forever held in the heart you gave so fast.
(Verse 2)
Every beat of music, every painted face,
Feels like you’re still here guiding us with grace.
You taught us how to sparkle through the pain,
How to dance in the storm, how to rise again.
And though you’re gone, we still hear your voice,
Saying, “Baby, choosing joy is always your choice.”
You raised us with care that nobody could fake—
A mother in every sense a heart could make.
(Pre-Chorus)
We still feel your love in the things we do,
In every triumph, there’s a piece of you…
(Chorus)
Oh Daray, your heart was bigger than the sky,
You’d give the shirt off your back without asking why.
You lifted us when we felt we had nothing left,
You gave us love, you gave us breath.
Taken too soon, but your warmth stays intact—
We carry your kindness everywhere we act.
Oh Daray, we miss you, but your love lights our path—
Forever held in the heart you gave so fast.
(Bridge)
If only you could see how far we’ve grown,
How your children shine in ways you’d have known.
Every dream we chase has your name sewn tight,
Like stitching on a costume you’d make late at night.
You’d laugh, you’d hug, you’d say, “Look at my kids—
Look at everything they’ve done, everything they did.”
And we’d tell you, Mama, that it’s all thanks to you,
To the heart so generous, so fierce, so true.
(Final Chorus)
Oh Daray, your heart was bigger than the sky,
You’d give the shirt off your back without asking why.
You taught us love in the purest form,
You were shelter, you were home, you were calm in the storm.
Taken too soon, but your light carries on,
In every Lorez child standing proud, standing strong.
Oh Daray, we love you—and that love will forever last,
For a mother whose heart gave everything, so fast.
