Momma

Here's that song that you've been asking for Momma I know you meant it as a joke, but you deserve this and a hundred more Momma And it's so hard to think of words, but here's what I'ma say first You always love me at my worst, more than I know I deserve When I was young, actin up and didn't want to go to church Puttin up with cry-Isaac in the crib, I bet I was the worst Taught me how to love, in my heart, you will always be first Thank you ain't enough when talkin bout your name You raised all of us kids, with hardly ever hearing thanks Under appreciated, not a thing you'd ever change Cuz you don't do it for fame, but you'd do it all the same Now we all grown up, Noah got married, Hannah graduated I'm on my way, I bet it's scary Kids are moving out, Christmas doesn't feel so Merry But we are never going far, now this burden you carry Did I do this right? Could I have done some of it better? Lay in bed at night, stressing anxiety building pressure Second guessing decisions but don't you dare start feeling lesser You the best there ever was, better than gold and any treasure Thank you momma, I could never say it enough You taught me everything I know, taught me how to be tough You were always there, arms open wide when it got rough Now I can do the same, because you taught me how to love I would give you the world if it was in my hand You the best, you should know, I'm talking name brand Wish I didn't I have to make a song to show you where you stand But you were always in the stands, I know you're my biggest fan But I'm yours This right here an encore You would give me everything no matter if it costs more Sacrificing everything to make me happy, I'm sure There's treasures up in Heaven with your name, forever, time for The standing ovation, you never took a vacation cuz mommas never get a break I bet it's so frustrating Getting tired, lacking sleep, but you were never debating Should I just throw in the towel? I don't think I can take it Momma please understand Cuz I'm only just a man No matter what I write You'll never know right where I stand To help you get it better I'll keep picking up the pen No matter what it takes, just know I love you till the end Momma
