Sittin’ here with this drink in my hand
Knowin’ this won’t help my problems
So I’m lookin’ up to you MOM
Hopin’ u can help me solve them
U look into my eye’s
C the tears start to fall, and my eye’s start to swell
" WHAT’S WRONG SON "
Mom your boy ain’t doin’ so well
You’ve been gone 4 a while now
And I’m still sheddin’ tears
I’m afraid they won’t stop fallin’
This could last 4 many, many years
I didn’t think it would be this hard
To except HEAVEN is a better place 4 u
And waking up, knowing you’re not there
I can’t seem 2 get use 2
I know u taught me how to except the things I can’t change
2 be strong and stand tall
But my nights are getting more restless
I can’t seen 2 sleep at all
I still see the times we shared
Sittin’ around talkin’ about the good old days
And how u didn’t think I would grow up
And get pass my childish ways
I see u at my football games
U were always the loudest 1 there
How could a mother as good as u, be taken from me
Sometimes I think it wasn’t fair
I still smell those made from scratch cakes
As well as those homemade pies
Forgive me if I stumble thru my words
It’s kinda hard with teary eye’s
I miss those words u would tell me
When I was doin’ wrong
I remember those nights u wouldn’t sleep
Waitin’ 4 me to get home
Those were the good old days
And boy did we share some good times
So if u could, I sure need your help
Your son needs 2 know, he’ll be just fine
I thought growin’ up as a kid
Was the hardest thing I ever had 2 do
But that was nothin’ compared 2 what I had 2 face
The days after I lost you
I still remember that track meet
I got beat, thought I’d lost my stride
You said, "SON JUST DO WHAT YOU DO BEST"
So I raised my head up and walked with pride
"YOU’LL FACE THOSE GUYS TOMORROW
AND YOU’LL DO WHAT I KNOW YOU CAN"
Funny how over all the noise
I only heard 1 true fan
I remember back in the days, growin’ up
When I wasn’t allowed 2 call grown ups by first name
Mom, u should be here now
The whole world gone crazy, it’s all changed
I still recall u standin’ in the kitchen
The sounds of pots and pans
Those days u couldn’t deal with me
And I had 2 deal with Grandma’s hand
Those times I wouldn’t listen
U thought I never heard a word u would say
Regardless if I listened or not
U voiced your opinion anyway
Do u remember mom
When u would whip me 4 being bad
People today call that child abuse
Children runnin’ households, it’s sad
Saying what they will and will not do
I remember when adults talked
All kids stayed away
Well down here they join in
I’m glad u didn’t raise me that way
Mom it’s getting harder
It’s very difficult 2 face the passin’ days
What is your son to do
Without his mother for the holidays
This is when I miss u most
Seeing u put up the CHRISTmas tree
U wakin’ up at 5 in the morning
Watching gifts being torn open
Signed, sealed and delivered from you to me
Sometimes I would fall, and u would come runnin’
Those are the days I really miss
I really wasn’t hurt
But there was nothing like my mama’s kiss
I made a lot of mistakes
But mom, u wouldn’t let them be
I miss u callin’ me in the room
A strong mothers love, correcting me
You would call me in the room
SON,WHAT’S WRONG"
I wondered how u knew
"IT’S A MOTHERS LOVE 4 HER SON"
Mom are there any words u can send me
2 help me through the rough times
"YES SON, KEEP GOD AT THE HEAD OF YOUR LIFE
TRUST HIM AND YOU’LL BE JUST FINE"
I love u mom
"I KNOW SON, EVEN WHEN YOU DIDN’T SAY IT"
I just want u 2 know, everything u did 4 me
I really do appreciate it
