Mother

Mother

Mother, can you give me what I need?

Yes, is the answer she shows me

Anything is possible, go and get it now

I've shown you the clues to figure your shit out

So I laugh out loud

And she laughs out loud

And we laugh out loud

We are both proud

Mother, can you hear the words I say?

I see in her eyes she can relate

I've been where you have been many years before

I'll tell you all that I know, take what you want

So I settle down

And she settles down

And we settle down

We are both proud

Mother can you cook me food to eat?

She's always had a plate to offer me

Prepare what you can and make it warm

Share with your friends

Family around the table is what's happiness

So I bake some bread

And she bakes some bread

And we bake some bread

We are both proud

Mother, can you hold my hand again?

Her hand is steady, reaching to extend

I'll never love you any less, no matter what you do

I see the future in your eyes, follow through

So I feel as one

And she feels as one

We feel as one

We are both proud
