Maura Matlak / Mah-ruh - The Mama Song lyrics

My mama said baby, your generation seems disconnected from the real world And I said maybe you might be right but it's the only one I'm part of She said tell me why's it take you so long to find a lovre who is good to you And I said mom I honestly don't really know but we can't all be dad and you She said ooo my child now you listen close And you will hear the rhythms of the universe Before it gets better it might get worse So hold on to what you love Hold on to what you love And let go of what hurts And she baby, it's nice to have you home, can't you stay another week at least? I said the thing is, you know I'd love to but if I do I'll never leave And she said therein lies the problem, all you kids think you can give up so easily You're all just looking for some pill or potion or magic spell to take away the pain you feel inside She said ooo my child now you listen close And you will hear the rhythms of the universe Before it gets better it might get worse So hold on to what you love Hold on to what you love And let go of what hurts I spend all my money in rent I don't have much left for self-improvement So I buried my head in my mother's arms and cried and cried that night And I said please tell me what is wrong and right Or am I wasting all my time? She said ooo my child now you listen close And you will hear the rhythms of the universe Before it gets better it might get worse She said ooo my child now you listen close And you will hear the rhythms of the universe Before it gets better it might get worse So hold on to what you love Hold on to what you love Hold on to what you love She said ooo my child now you listen close And you will hear the rhythms of the universe Before it gets better it might get worse So hold on to what you love Hold on to what you love And let go of what hurts Hold on to what you love And let go of what hurts Hold on to what you love And let go of what hurts
