Mother's Love

Mothers stories won t be forgotten Our children are our purpose When we first started out You took me in with all your charm Helplessly in love with you A new version of self harm Married in winter a baby in the fall The secrets that you kept from me Only caring for your games and other women The arms of a home wrecker you flee Mothers stories won t be forgotten Our children are our purpose We had our ups and downs Our love did wane and rise The special baby joined us Can t you hear our sons cries You left me for another woman One with no capability I love my son with all my heart Take on the responsibility Mothers stories won t be forgotten Our children are our purpose We got together so very young You said you would love me till the end Our children you neglected Seeing them only on the weekend Hiding the anger you took out on my face Picking glass from my bruised body My friends had to protect me You left me broken and bloody Mothers stories won t be forgotten Our children are our purpose Our little girl grew up in chaos Your temper used to control Violence was your chosen weapon To keep me in my role All our money went up your nose Ignoring my pleas for help Starting life over among strangers Living life with the hand I was dealt Mothers stories won t be forgotten Our children are our purpose There with me while I got sober Our beautiful babes had a mom and dad Growing distant over the years Turning into such a lazy cad Calling into work and making no money Staying home to play and sleep The kids in daycare you refused to watch Working overtime while the debt grew deep Mothers stories won t be forgotten Our children are our purpose Together for years strong armed into marriage You wanted a slave not a wife Going out to party leaving me with your kids Existing only in this half life Sleeping with my close friend Screaming and lying to my face Emotionally abusing my child Just to keep me in my place Mothers stories won t be forgotten Our children are our purpose Keeping our babies safe from you Is the ultimate satisfaction
