You’re tough Patrick You’re tough… Follow your heart…
Mama I’mma never stop talking to you Don’t you ever stop talking back to me I know you’re tired, mama hold my hand Hold on tight for as long as you can
I open my eyes, so that I can see Open my mind, let my mind go free Open my heart so that people can see What kinda things have been bothering me It’s been one long ride, and I finally plea It’s my last resort you don’t need to agree Weights to much, I can barely breath My knees are giving in this is what I need It’s been fifteen years, since my first care I remember that shit, ’cause I was there I dropped what I had in my hands didn’t care Left my teddy bear to approached mom Without any hair on her head, what? What you mean it disappeared? Tears streaming down and it wetted her cheek She had built the courage, she needed to speak And the moment she had feared was suddenly there She waved me over so I came over She hugged me harder then I can remember anyone ever hugging me But that was actually the point in time that it all became so clear The two minute silence and the two minute stare Something was wrong but how do you prepare In a front row seat to the world premiere Her burden unloaded, so she talking sincere With a message for a kid that I didn’t wanna hear Take good care of the time left to share Is no good news, it’s a poisonous spear Silence in the room but love in the air Try to calmed me down but it went to my head But this is what they told me, but this is what I said
Mama I’mma never stop talking to you Don’t you ever stop talking back to me I know you’re tired, mama hold my hand Hold on tight for as long as you can Mama I’mma never stop talking to you Don’t you ever stop talking back to me I know you’re tired, mama hold my hand Hold on tight for as long as you, can
Close my eyes, don’t need to see What my mind keep showing me Haunted dreams keep killing me Collar on my neck God set me free It’s dark in this mist but I’m going on It’s got me to my knees but I’m holding on My hands tied up, God damn this rope I refuse to give up but I’m losing hope ‘Cause when I go home this is what I meet My mom on IV ’cause she can’t eat Nothing I can do but take a seat Start a conversation and hear her speak This might be the end, so when I go to leave Hold on to her hand for one more beat Look her in the eye and I kiss her on the cheek Rub her on her neck and I tuck her feet I bite my lip as I leave that room It tears me up and it kills my mood I’m a sensitive dude in the middle of a feud Trying to stay in tune when I meet my platoon But it’s all to soon, for you to moon I love you mom, give me one more noon And in case you can’t I’ll still talk to you Don’t you ever stop talking back to me See this is what I came to, my final thought Bought you flowers, hoping time is what you got Music is timeless, if only I could stop Time for a second, tell you how much you rock Doing your best always, easy or not Always with a smile, and you’re always there to talk Now I’m all out of quarters and I almost forgot Time is running out but my questions are not
Mama I’mma never stop talking to you Don’t you ever stop talking back to me I know you’re tired, mama hold my hand Hold on tight for as long as you can Mama I’mma never stop talking to you Don’t you ever stop talking back to me I know you’re tired, mama hold my hand Hold on tight for as long as you, can
I hope that I have given you what you need to believe in yourself And to keep going, and whatever your goals are Work hard and you’ll make it It really means something to me that you have stuff that you’re interested in It makes me really happy for you and it’s all a mom could want You can just imagine me smiling Anyway looking at you and…
