Hey Mama by Madeleine Holden Lyrics
Hey mama, thank you for bringing me to life
Hey mama, I know it’s been rough
I know it’s been hard sometimes being my mama
When all I wanted to do was end this life
Do you know, mama
You’re the reason I’m here, the reason I’m still alive
Hey mama, I saw how you suffered seeing me in pain
Oh mama, you did your best to make me understand I was good enough
No matter how I looked, no matter what I did
No matter what I wanted to be
I’m sorry mama, that it took me 24 years to see
If I ever give my daughter half the love you’ve given me
I can die a happy mother knowing I left her as sure as can be
That she’s truly loved
Cause to be loved is what everybody needs
And I will be forever thankful
For the unconditional love you’ve given me
Hey mama, thank you for showing me heartache is a part of life
Oh mama, I’m glad you taught me to stand up and take a fight
When I feel like I’ve been mistreated
You always said I should speak even if my voice shakes
Oh mama, thank you for being there through my mistakes
And if I ever give my daughter half the love you’ve given me
I can die a happy mother knowing I left her as sure as can be
That she’s truly loved
Cause to be loved is what everybody needs
And I will be forever thankful
For the unconditional love you’ve given me
If I ever give my daughter half the love you’ve given me
I can die a happy mother knowing I left her as sure as can be
That she’s truly loved
Cause to be loved is what everybody needs
And I will be forever thankful
For the unconditional love you’ve given me
Hey mama, I know it’s been rough
I know it’s been hard sometimes being my mama
When all I wanted to do was end this life
Do you know, mama
You’re the reason I’m here, the reason I’m still alive
Hey mama, I saw how you suffered seeing me in pain
Oh mama, you did your best to make me understand I was good enough
No matter how I looked, no matter what I did
No matter what I wanted to be
I’m sorry mama, that it took me 24 years to see
If I ever give my daughter half the love you’ve given me
I can die a happy mother knowing I left her as sure as can be
That she’s truly loved
Cause to be loved is what everybody needs
And I will be forever thankful
For the unconditional love you’ve given me
Hey mama, thank you for showing me heartache is a part of life
Oh mama, I’m glad you taught me to stand up and take a fight
When I feel like I’ve been mistreated
You always said I should speak even if my voice shakes
Oh mama, thank you for being there through my mistakes
And if I ever give my daughter half the love you’ve given me
I can die a happy mother knowing I left her as sure as can be
That she’s truly loved
Cause to be loved is what everybody needs
And I will be forever thankful
For the unconditional love you’ve given me
If I ever give my daughter half the love you’ve given me
I can die a happy mother knowing I left her as sure as can be
That she’s truly loved
Cause to be loved is what everybody needs
And I will be forever thankful
For the unconditional love you’ve given me
