[Intro]
[Bridge]
[Verse]
This one is for all the Mommas
That deal with traumas
That tried to protect their babies from problems
Who didn’t sign up for all the drama
Listens to the children when they cry for their momma
[Chorus]
Momma said clean your room, drive safe turn down your car tunes
Momma misses Your loud singing in the shower
you are more than any story they will tell
Scars and secrets you wouldn’t tell
Momma, would trade the years for just one hour with you
You were our sunrise, then you slipped into the dark
Chasing something tearing us apart
Momma had to make a post that tour us all apart
[Verse]
You were the one who was first to connect
It’s in your nature to love and protect
Taught lessons of hard work and respect
Try to Live life right and be a good role model
Planned projects and Gymnastics, never stayed idled
Pray and look for guidance in the Holy Bible
You stay strong like a disciple
[Bridge]
[Verse]
Tears fall down when you think about all of your sacrifices
Shielded them from the bad vices
They’re hard to control with all their devices
Homemade pizza no meat on the slices
You kept food on the table
Even when you were barely able
Stayed determined and stable
[Chorus]
Momma said clean your room, drive safe turn down your car tunes
Momma misses Your loud singing in the shower
you are more than any story they will tell
Scars and secrets you wouldn’t tell
Momma, would trade the years for just one hour with you
You were our sunrise, then you slipped into the dark
Chasing something tearing us apart
Momma had to make a post that tour us all apart
[Pre Chorus]
Chasing something tearing us apart
Momma had to make a post that tour us all apart
[Guitar/Saxophone Solo]
[Verse]
Mama, I know it’s even harder when they think they’re grown up
And they haven’t even grown up
Leave their children with you to grow up
Think about all the times you showed up
You did and do everything to help
You researched and looked at the reviews on yelp
Babies still getting lost in a sea of kelp
Danger hides behind the camouflage
Blinded by Love creates a mirage
Your love is not one thing it’s an entourage
When they left, you felt the effect
We all have flaws, but your in mama eyes you we’re perfect
[Bridge]
[Verse]
If momma only really knew
Maybe she could have saved you
At dinner momma sets a place at the table for you. Your favorite color was a combination of red and blue
Your tragedy left so many casualties
We love and move on to the best of our abilities
We are all on different paths and different journeys
[Final Chorus]
Momma said clean your room, drive safe turn down your car tunes
Momma misses Your loud singing in the shower
you are more than any story they will tell
Scars and secrets you wouldn’t tell
Momma, would trade the years for just one hour with you
You were our sunrise, then you slipped into the dark
Chasing something tearing us apart
Momma had to make a post that tour us all apart
