mother took on a new journey
a black woman with two already
feet aching already
tired already
who knew that she was mighty enough
to stick through the rough path
of righteous women
very few make it through
to see their dreams come true
my momma did it
made it look cool
set your ground and
set it straight
birthed three
and they turned out to be great
forever grateful for the days
of love and soul that was instilled
inside of me
i breathe easy knowing
my teacher is well and safe
my mother is okay
but when that day so solemnly comes
where God takes you on your way
i won't want to make it past
the end of that day
i promise
