I see it in her eyes,
The watery glows from the tears shes cried.
Yet I know shes strong because she tries to hide them.
I tell her that everything will be okay.
Cause Ive been praying everyday.
All you gotta do is have some faith.
Mama, dont you see,
Its not as bad as it may seem.
Mama, its alright.
Everyday proves,
Yesterday was worth the fight.
We had to go through the dark to see the light.
She sacrificed for family,
Mama, Joe, and me us three.
Her health, well-being was all put on the line.
Other judged, they did not know,
What all went on within our home.
Theyd rather go by rumors and closed eyes.
Mama, dont you see,
Its not as bad as it may seem.
Mama, its gon be just fine.
Its easier to live as one whos happily blind.
But you and I know what lies down deep inside.
How do I tell you,
How do I express,
That all we had to go through is so much more than memorys mess?
How do I tell you,
How much I adore you,
What hasnt killed us yet built up shields to make us this strong.
How do I tell you,
How youve done right this long.
Theres no need to be sorry.
There is nothing youve done wrong.
Your love is evident through scars, through tears, and now this song.
