My world revolves around two awesome kids of mine
I did my best to raise them
in this crazy mixed up time

My son, he is the older, growing wiser, every day it seems
My daughter, she is bolder, full of fire and full of steam

No matter how old they get
they’ll forever be my kids.
I did my best to raise them
just like my Mom did

We disagreed and feuded, but it was always full of love.
I did my best to be a good example, as instructed by the Lord above

I will always fight for what’s best for them
it’s in my nature you see.
Their hurts, they still hurt me too
regardless of age or beliefs

My babies will someday marry
I pray for them everyday
I hope they make the best choice possible
Someone who’s got their back come what may.

Dear son and my dear daughter
Listen to these words of mine
Take heed of my warnings
And make my wisdom thine

It is not out of fear of loss
that I give you my advice
It is out of my deep love for you
May it prevent you paying a price

Sometime in the distant future
I’ll go to heaven, one sweet day
There you’ll find me waiting
May your joining be delayed
