[Intro: Jeff Martin]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh , oh, oh, oh
Loves forever, only thing that is necessary
It's your heart, nothing is ever temporary
This for real, man, am I feeling legendary
Love you mama, through pain and suffer you smile marry
[Hook: Jeff Martin]
And I just wanna' say dear mama, you make me stronger
Oh that's my honor
Guess that I outta' say, "Thanks, I love ya'"
Oh how I love ya'
Hand to the sky as for my promises
Yeah, as for my promises
Yeah, as for my promises
Yeah, that's for my mama
That's for my mama
As for my promises
[Verse 1: Jeff Martin]
And I promise you that one day I'll make it
I'll make you proud even though you already are in places
You make me smile, make me laugh on a daily basis
It may not seem like it, mama, but you're my inspiration
You always tell me to do what I love, let it k** me
You always tell me find the right in wrong, see it clearly
You picked me up when I was feeling down, told me yearly
That I was chosen by the man himself, but I merely
Can get through the day without the thought of me nearly
Letting my people down without a fight makes me teary
But I just think it's this responsibility making me weary
So I made this song for who I love, mama, sincerely, yours truly
You're beautiful in so many different ways its crazy
You got that look in your eyes that lights up the world like daisies
You make the sun shine even when it's dark and rainy
I hear your voice when I'm scared, sounds of a ukulele
And even when it's over, all over
I'll see you fly over
'Cause love isn't a strong enough word as my proposer
I see you, I need you
It hurts me to leave you
Give me something to believe to
[Hook: Jeff Martin]
And I just wanna' say dear mama, you make me stronger
Oh that's my honor
Guess that I outta' say, "Thanks, I love ya'"
Oh how I love ya'
Hand to the sky as for my promises
Yeah, as for my promises
Yeah, as for my promises
Yeah, that's for my mama
That's for my mama
As for my promises
[Verse 2: Jeff Martin]
That's for my promises
That's for your homages
For your accomplishments, yeah
For your accomplices
That's for the artisans
Back to the hominids
And I told you with all the staring faces
Risks so high, it's goin' right past the Appellations
Forget the past, we'll never know what's the other traces
Put on your shoes and tighten up all those hangin' laces
Yeah, maybe it's who I am
Maybe it's true I am
Maybe it's blue I am
It's to pursue I can
It's too taboo, I ran
You made me who I am
Maybe it's you I am
[Hook: Jeff Martin]
And I just wanna' say dear mama, you make me stronger
Oh that's my honor
Guess that I outta' say, "Thanks I love ya'"
Oh how I love ya'
Hand to the sky as for my promises
Yeah, as for my promises
Yeah, as for my promises
Yeah, that's for my mama
That's for my mama
As for my promises
[Bridge: Jeff Martin]
Tell God I'm on it
Tell God I'm on it lately
Tell God I'm on it
Tell God I'm on it lately
[Hook: Jeff Martin]
And I just wanna' say dear mama, you make me stronger
(You make me stronger)
Oh that's my honor
Guess that I outta' say, "Thanks I love ya'"
Oh how I love ya'
Hand to the sky (hand to the sky) as for my promises
