Mother
A Soul's Reflection: Seeking Forgiveness and Identity
Lyrics
Mother sweet mother of mine
Expressing reverence and affection towards one's mother.
Forgive me for who I am
Seeking forgiveness for one's actions or identity.
And father sweet father of mime
Expressing reverence and affection towards one's father.
Forgive me for who I am
Seeking forgiveness for one's actions or identity.
The trouble I avoid
Suggesting an attempt to evade problems or challenges.
It follows me down
Implying that despite efforts to avoid trouble, it persists.
And every turn I take
Highlighting the continuous nature of the trouble despite changes in direction.
It follows me down
Reiterating the persistence of trouble regardless of actions taken.
It follows me down
Emphasizing the repeated and ongoing nature of the trouble.
Sometimes I wonder why
Expressing introspection or contemplation about one's own nature.
I am the way I am
Questioning the reasons behind one's personality or behavior.
Was I made this way
Reflecting on whether inherent traits are predetermined.
Or is it where I'm from
Questioning the influence of origins on personality or identity.
Sometimes I wonder if
Continuing introspection regarding the role of divine influence.
If it's Gods hand
Questioning whether one's nature is a result of divine design.
The clay that he used
Metaphorically referencing the concept of creation from clay.
To shape and mold me from
Contemplating the process of being formed or shaped by a higher power.
The trouble I avoid
Reiterating the persistence of trouble despite efforts to avoid it.
It follows me down
Stressing the continuous nature of trouble despite changes in direction.
And every turn I take
Emphasizing the ongoing challenge regardless of actions taken.
It follows me down
Reiterating the persistence of trouble despite changes in direction.
It follows me down
Emphasizing the repeated and ongoing nature of the trouble.
The trouble I avoid
Repeating the theme of persistent trouble despite attempts to avoid it.
It follows me down
Reinforcing the idea of continuous trouble despite changes in direction.
And every turn I take
Emphasizing the ongoing challenge regardless of actions taken.
It follows me down
Reiterating the persistence of trouble despite changes in direction.
It follows me down
Emphasizing the repeated and ongoing nature of the trouble.
Mother sweet mother of mine
Reaffirming affection and reverence towards one's mother.
