Mama
Becoming Mama: A Journey of Strength & Self-Discovery
Lyrics
You came out of the blue
You appeared unexpectedly
And I never thought this through
I didn't anticipate or plan for this
Wasn't all prepared or knew what I was doing
I wasn't fully prepared and didn't know what I was getting into
At first you took my sleep
In the beginning, you disrupted my sleep
Threw my dreams out on the street
You challenged my aspirations
Drove away my friends and filled up my time
You distanced me from my friends and occupied my time
What I've got now i wouldn't trade
What I have now is valuable and irreplaceable
You show me more everyday
You constantly reveal new aspects to me
You call me mama
You address me as "mama"
You call me to be more
You urge me to become more
True and honest with myself
To be true and honest with myself
Never felt so overwhelmed
I've never felt so overwhelmed
When you call me mama
When you address me as "mama"
You show me my weakness
You reveal my weaknesses
And help me believe in
You help me believe in the strength we have together
The strength that we have together
And life is different now
Life has changed with your constant presence
With you always around
Your absence would have altered who I am today
But without you I would not be who I am today
Standing firm in who I am
I am secure in my identity
Letting go of what I ain't
I am letting go of what I am not
You've taught me so much in a short time
You've taught me a lot in a short time
What I've got now i wouldn't trade
What I have now is invaluable
You show me more everyday
You continue to reveal more to me every day
You call me mama
You address me as "mama"
You call me to be more
You prompt me to become more
True and honest with myself
To be true and honest with myself
Never felt so overwhelmed
I've never felt so overwhelmed
When you call me mama
When you address me as "mama"
You show me my weakness
You reveal my weaknesses
And help me believe in
You help me believe in the strength we have together
The strength that we have together
