[Intro]
Silent nights, heavy hearts, memories that stay
Walking through the shadows, trying to find my way
Momma’s working days, hardly time to stay
But I learned to stand tall, come what may
[Verse 1]
Barely enough on the table, just crumbs and hope
Mama's working late, never a moment to cope
Siblings and me, fighting for our share
In a world so cold, caught in a snare
[Pre-Chorus]
The bullies tried to break me, throw me to the ground
But I picked myself up, turned my pain around
Growing up fast, a child with dreams unrealized
Found strength in the tears I cried
[Chorus]
Thank you, mama, for every sacrifice
For every sleepless night, every silent cry
You were my anchor in the stormy sea
Made me the man I’ve come to be
Stronger through the struggle, proud and free
This is my story, this is my history
Powerful and raw, with love I sing
Thank you, mama, for everything
[Bridge: Group Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
We rise above the pain, we let it go
Oh, oh, oh, oh
From the shadows, now we glow
[Verse 2]
Bullets flying words, they tried to shatter
But I learned to fight back, to push and matter
Becoming a father at just fourteen
Balancing worlds, living the unseen
[Pre-Chorus]
Through the tears and scars, I learned to stand
With every broken piece, I built my plans
Graduated high-school, a victory in sight
Fighting for my future, into the night
[Chorus]
Thank you, mama, for every sacrifice
For every sleepless night, every silent cry
You were my anchor in the stormy sea
Made me the man I’ve come to be
Stronger through the struggle, proud and free
This is my story, this is my history
Powerful and raw, with love I sing
Thank you, mama, for everything
[Outro]
Now I stand tall, with a grateful heart
From the shadows, I’ve made my start
With acoustic guitar and jazz in the air
This is my song, my love laid bare
[Group Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
We rise above the pain, we let it go
Oh, oh, oh, oh
With strength and love, we grow
