Hold my hand and listen close, hey Ma, I just want you to know
That I love you and I hope that you feel fine
For all the years, alone you raised us, thru lonely nights and
Troubled days
You took the time, you really held the light
(Chorus)
And these hard times, you are always in our minds
These hard times, in a world so d***ed insane
You are shelter from the pain, it's been a long ride
We were taught to think, helped made aware
Ma, the credit goes to you, I swear
Encouraged to form opinions of our own
You kept us healthy, warm and then
You gave us brighter days ahead
We knew someday, we'd look back and we'd smile
(Chorus)
(Break)
(Chorus)
That I love you and I hope that you feel fine
For all the years, alone you raised us, thru lonely nights and
Troubled days
You took the time, you really held the light
(Chorus)
And these hard times, you are always in our minds
These hard times, in a world so d***ed insane
You are shelter from the pain, it's been a long ride
We were taught to think, helped made aware
Ma, the credit goes to you, I swear
Encouraged to form opinions of our own
You kept us healthy, warm and then
You gave us brighter days ahead
We knew someday, we'd look back and we'd smile
(Chorus)
(Break)
(Chorus)
