Mom

Put you through the ringer, yeah, was just in utero
Pregnant with a pair of twins could hardly fit into your clothes
Lord knows, remember how you said you couldn't touch your toes
I look into the mirror, see your eyes my eyes, your soul, my soul
Embedded in me and I feel your blood that's coursing through my veins
Poetic to me 'cause you were stronger than those labor pains
Connected to me, went from umbilical to music chords
Forever you'll be the light that I am always running towards
You supported me when I wanted to act and you backed me up when I wanted to rap
Role model Mom taught me take no crap, role model Mom that I never saw snap
Go figure, I'm getting older my features familiar
Like your sister but your daughter that reflects in the mirror Mom

Do you think about me when I'm gone
When I'm not around will you sing this song
I found love in you, you found love in me
No matter what you say, I will always be with you

Even to this day you persevere Momma shines bright like her chandelier
Times got tough you never disappeared
Made things work like an engineer
Full steam ahead till we're in the clear
I don't like sports but for you I cheer
Could've checked out like a cashier
And when times got bad told us good times near
Oh Mom, you bought that dress and paid for prom
I put you through hell and you were calm
I fought you so much, yeah Vietnam
You were my angel all along
Oh Mom, I dread the day that you are gone
And I, I wish that I could right my wrongs
You make me feel like I belong
I had to put you it in a song

Do you think about me when I'm gone
When I'm not around will you sing this song
I found love in you, you found love in me
No matter what you say, I will always be with you

And really it was fate
They called our number at the gate
End of July they set a date
Me and my favorite teammate
All we did was wait
And I pushed out to this brave new world
Twin A, baby girl
He pushed out to this brave new world Twin B, baby boy
Your hands were full and you barely slept
Room full of toys look where you step
Tended to us when we had strep
Quizzes and tests you said try your best
I bombed but Mama I think that you're the bomb
Star of our family sitcom
Just know I'm proud to call you Mom
Promise your love lives on

Do you think about me when I'm gone
When I'm not around will you sing this song
I found love in you, you found love in me
No matter what you say, I will always be with you
Do you think about me when I'm gone
When I'm not around will you sing this song
I found love in you, you found love in me
No matter what you say, I will always be with you
