"Dear Mom"

I love you, mom

It's Danny

Dear mom, dear mom

I hope you know that this is your song

Yeah

Dear mom, everything you did was worth it

All the sacrifices taken when the picture wasn't perfect

I could see it in your face when I was young and all your burdens

Are reminders to keep pushing when I'm working on this circuit

I remember in the Canada cold

Delivering papers out the trunk when I was sick, going door to door

You used to say God got me, I was meant for more

And that we was broke cause he was fixing what we had in store

I remember that momma used to beat my ass

Then I would be mad and crying while she worked a back to back

Then she'd wake me up and tell me that I'd better get to class

And then I graduated and she stood up and I saw her clap

Mom, we used argue now I know you were right

Ima tell my kids the same to be in before street lights

Not to steal, do right, live, laugh, play, fight

And everynight pray to God on both knees with closed eyes

Everybody's got a mom, everyone relates to this

There's no way we can repay them for the things they all did

This a message to the queens around the world who go to war

And sacrifice to make a better life for all of their kids

Tuesday night you would drive me to practice

Church on Sunday, midnight masses

Pushed me hard, I couldn't be stagnant

Kept me calm despite the madness

You cooked and kept me fed

Then knelt and prayed beside my bed

You'd whisper in my ear

And I still hear those words inside my head

Mom knows best

Can't talk back, can't disrespect

Can't forget

You held me in your stomach despite all the pain, all the stress

Can't neglect

Laid the bricks to my success

And dedicated all your time to make sure that I did my best

Mom, I hope you know this is your song

I hope memorize and always sing along

I hope you know I know you did your best

And every single step you ever took was to assure I never did no wrong

Can't nobody break this bond

It's infinite and then beyond

And when they ask my reason I just say your name as my response

My love for you could stretch across

A 100 seas and light a galaxy

I'm trying to say that can't nobody ever turn it off

Mom, thank you is not enough

You're the reason that I'm here and why I can't give up

And every single time I fall

And every time I'm stuck

You call me knowing something's wrong innately and you pick me up

And even when we miles away I promise we're not out of touch

Cause nothing can connect the world the way a loving mother does

For all those double shifts, I saw you work, I never saw you fuss

And that's why when I'm tired I keep going cause I know must

Work to ensure you get the life you deserve

Dear mom, you're an angel

So again I'm saying, thank you for the memories

And time I feels like heaven on earth

And while I know I can't repay you, I'm just tryna say I'm grateful

For your sacrifice and love and always putting me first

Mom, I hope that you take these words

And never ever have think about or question your worth

For all your pain and your hurt

For all your struggle and work

Mom, for giving me birth

I want to say

Dear mom, this a letter from your son

Those 3 jobs you were working, yeah, they probably wasn't fun

All the weight that you were carrying, it probably weighed a ton

So I made this song today to finally tell you that you done

I love you, mom

Dear mom, dear mom

I hope you know that this is your song...
