Mama
Its not that I dont
see where you're coming from
I know it took a lot for you
to swim back up
Out of the deep glass of water you were drownin in
Must not have been so fun having
half empty as your cup

I think you know that life is fragile
so you'd rather not judge or be a part of any battles
it's easier for you accept the flaws and the wrongs
But, you should know
the weight you carried for so long
it was on my shoulders too
and I don’t how to do 
what you do
cause im a fighter
im a fighter
im a fighter
and I believe you gotta choose
good or bad win or lose
im impatient and I burn
maybe I resent what I've had to unlearn

Mama
maybe you're
better
so much better than than me
It took a lot for you to survive not to fall on your knees
and you built yourself around those who stole your innocence you and still stayed alive
Maybe you're my Hero
in this life

Mama
Its not that I dont
see where you're coming from
but I don't hang with the ones that burned me with the sun
infact I don't walk to them I run
maybe its easier
for you to stay in your cage
no map needed no long drives no need to gage


but you should know,
the weight you carried for so long
it was on my shoulders too
and I don’t know how to do
what you do
im a fighter
im a fighter
and I believe you gotta choose
good or bad, win or lose
im impatient I burn
maybe I resent what I've had to unlearn


Mama its not that I don't see
where you're coming from
but I’m no longer that girl you held so tight
in that picture Dad took in Boca’s sunlight in 94 or 95

Time moved me on and I grew kinda strong
Beneath my ribs, I got my own
my own lies, my own truths and haunting cries
and I got a view
one all my own
see I had to swim too out of troubled waters unknown
to you

Mama its not that I don't see
your strength
and the way you learned to be
one of eleven
musta been hard
to be individual to find who you are
and maybe who you found
is alright with me
maybe its alright with me

Mama, maybe you're alright with me
You're one woman and I'm another
In a vast big sea
Youre one woman swimming
and im another
in this vast big sea
and maybe, you're alright with me
