Stay Behind and Teach

I had paddles on my chest I saw the light in the clouds Visions of past family They were talking to me out loud Every day since she left My life can't be the same Not a woman left on earth Like the one with my last name Mama I'm not gonna make it to you this time around I'm sorry I won't get to see you Gotta stay and make you proud It's not my time to go, it was your time to leave All the lessons that you taught me I've gotta stay behind and teach Could've been with you in heaven Gods not ready for me yet At least I have my memories Now I know what He expects Doctors said I was good to go My work on earths not done But everyday that I'm still here, I sure miss you so Mama I'm not gonna make it to you this time around I'm sorry I won't get to see you Gotta stay and make you proud It's not my time to go, it was your time to leave All the lessons that you taught me I've gotta stay behind and teach Mama I'm not gonna make it to you this time around I'm sorry I won't get to see you Gotta stay and make you proud It's not my time to go, it was your time to leave All the lessons that you taught me I've gotta stay behind and teach All the lessons that you taught me I've gotta stay behind and teach
