Marc Goone - Dear Mom lyrics

[Intro] The truth is, I'm not the best with words Unless I write them down and rearrange them first When you told me the news, took me a li'l while To believe it i refused, went into denial Knew there had to be a vial, or a potion, or a doc My emotions, they would spiral, with the notion, of you not Being here forever, my denial turned to shock Cuz dad has been my idol, but you have been my rock Now when we converse We only talk my my music And I try to be stronger But I know I'd lose it [Verse 1] Dear mom Took me 5 months to write this song I would sit down, get high and light the bong But I kept staring at a blank page, I'd get blazed And cliches kept pouring out me ugh, so I prolonged How do I get this thing here started? I remember on the first day of kindergarten That I wanted to take the bus but you were there to pick me up I sat there and I made a fuss until you departed Don't talk to your mother that way, said Mrs. Schroeder I'm sorry for pushing you way, as I get older, I Begin to see you've always loved me whether right or wrong In middle school when I was wondering if I belong And I was bullied you're the shoulder that I cried upon sh** at this moment you're the reason that my lights are on I love you mom, in each and every way Never told you how much I appreciate you until today [Hook] Now when we converse We only talk my music And I try to be stronger But I know I'd lose it So I wrote this song here Try to help you through it Dear mom, stay strong The fight is on [Verse 2] Everything happens for a reason That's what you've always told me, mom I always said I don't believe it Always told you were wrong See, I tried to preach that we were in control That the trees we grow are built from the seeds we sow But, what do you know, now I see your message mom This tornado touched down changed my whole perspective on Life, you were right, an unusual confession From your hardheaded son, an unusual suggestion I beg you not to see this as a funeral procession sh** happens for a reason, life is beautiful, a blessing And I know it don't seem right, but carry on Cuz after every night, comes a dawn I just want you to be happy cuz before we know it life is gone I love you mom, the fight is on [Hook]
