Mothers Eyes

Took me in her arms and made me believe

You could be anything

That's what she said to me

I know you just want what is best for me

I should be loved

I should be free

But, mama, each and every time they've been tryna find a reason to doubt me

And the further I climb, they get louder tryna shout me down

Well, sooner or later someone's gonna get hurt

I'll know where to turn

'Cause all I need

Is in my mother's eyes

In my mother's eyes

What it means to be me, what it means to be happy

That's what she hopes for me

That's what she gave to me

But, mama, each and every time they've been tryna find a reason to doubt me

And the further I climb, they get louder tryna shout me down

Well, sooner or later someone's gonna get hurt

Well, I'll know where to turn

'Cause all I need

Is in my mother's eyes

In my mother's eyes

In my mother's eyes

In my mother's eyes

See all you've done

Is more, more than enough

And all that matters to me

Is how I will be, how I will be seen

In my mother's eyes

In my mother's eyes

In my mother's eyes

In my mother's eyes
