Oh Mama... How did you get through all the drama That was brought into your life Before you we're even a mother or a wife Oh Mama... How did you manage to handle the pain No one could've made it through all that Without going insane Oh Mama... How did you carry us on your back As bomb carriers filled the sky Shielding us from disaster As the innocent ones die Oh Mama... How did you manage to survive all them wars All those children that died Five of them yours Oh Mama... How did you leave your life behind To start over in a new country Away from your own kind Oh Mama... How did you keep love in your heart When life was at its worst And regardless of what happened You always put us first Oh Mama... How did you get past the ignorant ones The ones who were blind to your scars The ones who couldn't see That you've made it so far Oh Mama... How will I ever repay you It would take nine lifetimes To simply say "Thank You".

Thank You isn't even enough for all that you have sacrificed for us. For your family. I love you Mama.
