Lyrics - mother - dynisty
MOTHER (E.ABOAGYE/J.SAUNDERS/K.BUSH)
---------------
My shelter from the storm ever since I was born
She kept me safe warm
In a world full of harm
That's why I love you mum
So please be strong
Coz I got to move on
And meet the world on my own.
So now I'm stepping out into unknown
As I leave the only home that I've ever known
Coz mama's baby boy is now full grown
And this time when I stand I'm a stand-alone
I don't know how long I'm a be gone
So please don't cry Mama, be strong
Coz I got to do this, on my own.
[Verse 1]
First day of school, kissed my Mama goodbye
The day they would say cowboys don't cry
Keep my back straight and my head held high
And with tears in my eyes I wouldn't ask why
Coz Mama's baby boy wasn't hard to convince
Been that way from that day since
Distance didn't seem to make a difference
I knew when there was trouble
she would run to my defense
Coz even when you had to correct and protect
You did it out of love and you earned my respect
Mama's Angel smile always had that effect
Even during times we don't seem to connect
But once I'm on that plane
things may never be the same
I think of what I lose,
when theirs so much I can gain
Coz mama I believe I can touch that sky
All I got to do is spread my wings and fly
[CHORUS]
Coz I got to leave home
Say goodbye to my comfort zone
So I got to be strong
When I stand I'm a stand-alone
[Verse 2]
And when my hearts in pieces
Mama told me I could count on Jesus
So I got to take this leap of faith
Coz I'll never make it playing it safe
I know you'll disapprove with the move that I make
I know I got to prove that this ain't a mistake
Knowing that this is the risk that I take
I feel it in my heart every moment I'm awake
Even right now its like my heart wanna break
So I shake it off, and put on a brave face
Heading to the studio and pack my suit case
All I need is time and a little bit of space
Ready for the race that I'm gonna have to run
And I know I can't stop till the job gets done
All I've ever known was poems and rapping
And now some how I got to make this happen
Reaching for the stars but we all got flaws
I got mine and you got yours
Praying deep down that my faith endures
Please Dear God won't you open these doors
[CHORUS]
Coz I got to leave home
Say goodbye to my comfort zone
So I got to be strong
When I stand I'm a stand-alone
[Verse3]
When love is so strong it becomes a cage
Knowing in my heart that I'm ready for change
Mama's Baby boy just became of age
I'm pouring out my heart on every page
Tried of the pain that I have to bear
It's like I'm drowning and I need the air
The one thing that I really know is clear
I got to make a home far away from here
So much of this world, I still have to see
So much more a man I still plan to be
And even during times that we disagree
I know I got to find what's best for me
Thinking I should quit but I know that I won't
Doing what I do to keep this boat on a float
Coz letter by letter and note for note
I know I'm getting better with the words I wrote
And when I feel my plight in the middle of the night
When I pray that God be my guiding light
When I look to the future coz it's looking bright
I pick up my pen and begin to write:
My shelter from the storm ever since I was born
She kept me safe warm
In a world full of harm
That's why I love you mum
[CHORUS]
Coz I got to leave home
Say goodbye to my comfort zone
So I got to be strong
When I stand I'm a stand-alone
