Lyrics

Too weak

Growing up i never had a left and a right shoe, it was always one or the other.
never both.
And i know is, a mothers love is true.
Now I’m big and strong, and it’s all thanks to you.

You raised me from the ground up.
And now that I’m all grown up i look back with tears in my eyes.
How could i ever fall for the plot of demise
that foster home put me through?

When the power went out, it was you who carried us through.
Boiling a pot of water just to run a bath.
Man i wish i could take it back,
Because when you fell and that water splashed,
Left a scar on your arm,
i wish i could go back and take that fall instead
If not for you id prolly be worse off or dead.

And when that man broke into our house just to strike fear.
I wish there was more i could do, besides shed a tear.
The way he tormented you for being strong.
Man that shit was so wrong.

Then to have your valance rewarded with time behind bars.
Lies hidden by scars,
They’ve stolen so much from our family,
But imma make you proud mom.

Then to have your oldest son turn out so poorly,
I’m sorry mom, i acted sorely.
I teated you wrong.
You had every reason to want me gone.

But you’re love insisted,
And when I threw my life away it was you that persisted.
Now I’m here,
Drawing near, to greatness.

So close i can taste it,
You’ll get witness your baby boy do something great.
Maybe make up for the feelings of hate,
I’ve left in my wake.

I’m sorry I was too weak.
But things don’t look so bleak,
Anymore,
Im destined for something more.
And its getting harder to ignore,
The love you’ve had for us even from before,

I love you mom.

How many moms can say they raised such a tenacious bunch of kids.
When these guys see my blow, it’ll flip their lids.
And its all thanks to a mom who believed
