you\r\nD.I.N.D.E.L.A\r\n\r\nYou told me that the sun sets\r\nOnly to rise again\r\nAnd with that wisdom, in your eyes\r\nI still saw the pain\r\nI held your hand and I told you\r\nIt won't always be this way\r\nYou said ofcos\r\nWhere there's a will there is a way\r\nYou told me that the sunsets\r\nOnly to rise again\r\nAnd with that wisdom, in your eyes\r\nI still saw the pain\r\nI held your hand and I told you\r\nIt won't always be this way\r\nYou said ofcos\r\nWhere there's a will there is a way\r\n\r\nMomma not educated\r\nNever her mothers favorite\r\nWe were cursed under the spell\r\nGranny couldn't stand the sight\r\nOf us as well\r\nEven thou she never treated us well\r\nWhen she passed away I cried\r\nAnd then I bid her farewell\r\nNo love from my father\r\nNo love from my grandma\r\nAll I had was my mother\r\nAnd a headache stronger than grandpa\r\nLife was a struggle, a single parent of 6\r\nWorking on farms just so we could have a meal\r\nWith no one but your own kids\r\nTo look after you when you were ill\r\nAunty Norah and aunty Sarah\r\nAlways there when they could since they knew the deal\r\nRegardless of no kingdom\r\nYou are still a queen\r\nAn angel only with blind eyes could be seen\r\nAnd Even thou I grew up an angry child\r\nThe happy times we had are real\r\n\r\nYou told me that the sun sets\r\nOnly to rise again\r\nAnd with that wisdom, in your eyes\r\nI still saw the pain\r\nI held your hand and I told you\r\nIt won't always be this way\r\nYou said ofcos\r\nWhere there's a will there is a way\r\nYou told me that the sun sets\r\nOnly to rise again\r\nAnd with that wisdom, in your eyes\r\nI still saw the pain\r\nI held your hand and I told you\r\nIt won't always be this way\r\nAnd uhh\r\nWhere there's a will there's a way\r\nThere's a way, there's a will there's a way\r\nThere's a way\r\n\r\nAnd I prayed we live forever\r\nBut God said it couldn't be\r\nI'll love you until death\r\nCause it'll kill me to see you leave\r\nI'm living every day to repay\r\nThe joy that you gave to me\r\nMy father threw away his greatest seed\r\nAnd unfortunately i grew\r\nI was a blessing in disguise\r\nI always felt you knew\r\nBecame three times what he will never be\r\nA father and everything a dead'll never be\r\nHe's so sick and I can't feel it\r\nOur feelings torn nah you can't heal it\r\nNever had love for him\r\nSo if he dies it won't kill me\r\nCrying for your life\r\nWould be nothing but weakness to me\r\nYou leaving me and my mama\r\nWas a sickness to me\r\nI Guess you left cause you couldn't be\r\nA father to me\r\nYou were only good for fathering me\r\nIf you were around you would have stood\r\nIn the way of all the things\r\nThat I was destined to be\r\nAnd I don't miss you a bit\r\nI wouldn't have been to the places\r\nWhere fatherless kids have been\r\nWouldn't have felt the fear leaving me\r\nFearing what I've become\r\nSo, Dear Mama\r\n\r\nYou told me that the sun sets\r\nOnly to rise again\r\nAnd with that wisdom, in your eyes\r\nI still saw the pain\r\nI held your hand and I told you\r\nIt won't always be this way\r\nYou said ofcos\r\nWhere there's a will there is a way\r\nYou told me that the sun sets\r\nOnly to rise again\r\nAnd with that wisdom, in your eyes\r\nI still saw the pain\r\nI held your hand and I told you\r\nIt won't always be this way\r\nYou said ofcos\r\nYou are my will and you're the way\r\nYou're the way\r\nYou're my will\r\nYou're the way\r\n\r\nTimes have finally changed\r\nWe got a little change\r\nSomething to celebrate\r\nAnd I dropped out of school\r\nCause I couldn't relate\r\nLeft radio cause my dreams were calling\r\nAnd they couldn't wait\r\nYou knew I was no fool\r\nCause you wished me well\r\nSaid i Should follow my dreams\r\nLike the mission bell\r\nSaid when I make it to the top\r\nThere'll be those who wish I fell\r\nSaid I should follow my dreams\r\nSaid me and Gordio were destined for greatness\r\nTold us to keep our heads up\r\nCause there's light after dawn's darkness\r\nThe rock of all rocks\r\nYou set your kids free and let em reach for the top\r\nYou the reason my heart beats\r\nAnd it'll be until our hearts stop\r\nAll I wanted was to make you proud\r\nIn case I don succeed, I hope you know I tried\r\nSo, Dear mama\r\n\r\nYou told me that the sunsets\r\nOnly to rise again\r\nAnd with that wisdom, in your eyes\r\nI still saw the pain\r\nI held your hand and I told you\r\nIt won't always be this way\r\nYour said ofcos\r\nYou're the will and you're the way\r\nHuh you're the will, you're the way (You're the way)\r\n(You're the will)\r\nYou told me that the sunsets\r\nOnly to rise again\r\nAnd with that wisdom, in your eyes\r\nI still saw the pain\r\nI held your hand and I told you\r\nIt won't always be this way\r\nYou said ofcos\r\nYou are the will you'll find a way\r\nAnd I found a way (I found a way)\r\nYeah\r\nI found a way (I found a way)\r\nI found a way (I found a way)\r\nDear mama\r\n(Way)\r\nI found a way (I found a way)\r\nI found a way (A way)\r\nI found a way (I found a way)","download_count":85,"play_count":0,"restrict_download":0,"generated_thumbnail":null,"flag_count":0,"download_count_24":1,"download_count_24_at":"2024-06-27","reupload_sent":0,"thumb_path":"https:\/\/s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com\/sol-assets\/uploads\/public\/62b\/5f8\/105\/thumb_848602_300_300_0_0_crop.jpeg","status_reason":"published","status_reason_alt":null,"tags":[]}
