You take my hand
Then you let it go
You said “You are ready”
To face it on your own
It won't be easy
Sometimes you'll fall
But there will be moments
That will make it all worth-wild
You said “Be a good person”
“Never let anyone Bring you down”
And Remember to stand tall
Don't ever hit the ground
But when you do
Rise up tall
Don't ever let the world
Make you feel small
Fight for the right
Denounce the wrong
I can tell you Daughter
You are so so strong
And I know all
about your scars
Each one makes you
Who you are
And it's OK Dear
Your wars over now
Live in peace
And be proud
So I want to thank you Mother
For breathing life into me
For seeing what you see
And teaching me
For every lesson
For every Hug
And for teaching me
How to Love...
