Mama I can't sleep at night, my heart has been aching for too long
I know I've grown into a big girl but I can't seem to go a day without hugging you like how I used to when I was little
Mama my mind's been a mess lately and i can't seem to get rid of the thoughts
I know you told me to be strong but mama I can't do this on my own
If I could go back to the days where you'd tell me what to do, I wouldn't hesitate to
Mama I don't know if I can trust anyone to love me like you do, but I need someone to take care of my heart when you're gone
I wish I could make you stay.
O mama tell me how to stay away from love
Cuz no one wants to hold my hand forever
Tell me how to go through everything on my own
Cuz everyone else is too broken to lend a hand
Mama I can't seem to love myself either most of the time
And sometimes I wish I die
But I'm too scared to tell you that your little girl doesn't want to live anymore
So tell me mama how did you learn to be strong
Despite of all the harder obstacles you had to face
Tell me how to overcome the demons inside my head
Tell me how to be a woman like you.
