oh mother
Whoa, oh, yeah,She was so young with such innocent eyes,
She always dreamt of a fairy tale life,
And all the things that your money can't buy,
And she thought that he was a wonderful guy.
Then suddenly, things seemed to change,
It was the moment she took on his name.
He took his anger out on her face,
She kept all of her pain locked away.
Oh mother, we're stronger,
From all of the tears you have shed.
Oh mother, don't look back
Cause he'll never hurt us again
So mother, I thank you for all you've done and still do.
You got me, I got you,
Together we always pull through.
We always pull through
We always pull through,
Oh mother, oh mother, oh mother...
It was the day that he turned on his kids,
That she knew she had to leave him.
So many voices up inside of her head,
Saying over and over and over,
"You deserve much more than this."
She was so sick of believing the lies and trying to hide,
Covering the cuts and bruises (cuts and bruises)
So tired for defending her life, she could have died,
Fighting for the lives of her children.
Oh mother, we're stronger,
From all of the tears you have shed (all of the tears you have shed)
Oh mother, don't look back
Cause he'll never hurt us again (he'll never hurt us again)
So mother, I thank you (thank you)
For all you've done and still do (still do)
You got me, I got you, (yeah you got me and I got you)
Together we always pull through.
Oh mother, oh mother, oh mother...
All of your life you have spent,
Burying hurt and regret.
but mama, He'll never touch us again.
For every time he tried to break you down,
Just remember who's still around,
It's over, and we're stronger,
and we'll never have to go back again...
Oh mother, we're stronger,
From all of the tears you have shed.
Oh mother, don't look back (oh mother don't look back again)
Cause he'll never hurt us again (cause he'll never hurt us again)
So mother, I thank you (and I thank you for all that you've done)
for all you've done and still do (together we always move on)
You got me, I got you, (you got me, I got you)
Together we always pull through (always pull through)
We always pull through,
We always pull through,
Oh mother, oh mother, oh mother..
I love you mom.
