To Be Loved.

Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Hey, hey, hey

At first I was afraid
If I told you you would run away
A thought I wouldn't want to
Reminisce but to fade

She told me that she loved me
"Baby you are still the same"
"You're my son after all
No matter who you are
You are loved"

How I jump
The weight just fades away
To be loved
By a parent isn't a mistake

Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

I thought I was the only one
Who ever felt this way
Social paradox I'm in a box
Look at the way they tried to paint me

Didn't want to tell you
Then you would leave
Amidst the everything
That we'd seen
But you were there
Beside me couldn't
Leave said that you loved me

Wiping tears in hospital
Rooms, there's more to
Life than living a lie
Told friends they said
They won't judge me
The love I felt
Never-ending

How I jump
The weight just fades away
It's who you are
That cannot be taken away

Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

Nine years old you helped me and my brother leave that house that belonged to that man who had unforeseeable plans
At 13 you helped me pack our bags just to leave couldn't afford to pay the lease so the cops left us in the streets
Found an option on our way, homeless shelter saved our day took four months for us to stay but you found a home that day
16 I came out, you accepted me for me
While fighting anxiety, it was debilitating
How could I even repay the things you did for me
You went above beyond what it takes a single mom to complete the very task that made it hard to last, but for us you kept going
We made it could you believe

Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
