Wildflower

She's faced the hardest time you could imagine

And many times her eyes fought back the tears, Lord, Lord

And when her youthful world was about to fall in

Her tiny, slender shoulders, all the weight of all her fears

And a sorrow no one hears still rings in midnight silence

In her ears

Let her cry, oh she's a lady (She's a lady)

Let her dream, for she's a child (Child)

Let the rain fall down upon her

She's a sweet and gentle flower growing wild, yeah

If by chance I should hold her (If by chance that I should her)

Let me hold her for all times (Let me hold her for all times)

If allowed just one possession, I would pick her (I would pick her)

From the garden to be mine

Baby, bae

Ooh, yeah, hey-hey, yeah

Be careful how you touch her for she will awaken

For sleep's the only freedom oh that she knows, Lord, Lord

And when you walk into her eyes, you won't believe

The way she's always paying for a debt she never owes

And a silent wind still blows, that only she can hear

So she goes

Let her cry, oh she's a lady (She's a lady)

Let her dream, for she is a child (Child)

Let the rain fall down upon her

She's a sweet and gentle flower growing wild, yeah

Oh, she's my flower

Growing, oh yeah (Oh yeah)

Dear mama

This is your baby boy

Hoping that you can hear me

I love you so much

You sacrificed so much

Raising four of us

On your own

You did the best you could

You was just tryna survive your pain

You were like a flower

A gentle flower

A black rose that grew through concrete

Baby

And while you're in Heaven, I hope

You find it in your heart to forgive me

I did the best I could, mama

I know Jesus is smiling every day, every day

Now that you're there

Amen

Yeah, yeah

Baby, baby, babe

Baby, baby, baby, baby

Yeah, yeah

Yo do, yeah

You're my flower

Mama, you're my number one sweet lady

Sweet little flower, oh

Baby, baby, baby

Baby, baby, baby, baby
