Lyrics

[00:00.00]
[00:39.46] Seventy hours a week
[00:41.24] It amazes me the power in her feet
[00:43.13] With no sleep she raised me
[00:44.94] A cocktail waitress with three babies
[00:46.88] Who will not fail in a race to try and save me
[00:49.61] From humiliation pain and heartache
[00:51.74] And still I don’t hesitate to learn it the hard way
[00:54.69] She knows she can’t control that
[00:56.32] But I love her every effort
[00:57.56] It just shows where her souls at
[00:59.51] And I know that she hated our poverty
[01:01.50] And the clothes donated by the Salvation Army
[01:03.83] Honestly I stare at her honorably
[01:06.32] She’s more then a mom to me
[01:08.05] Whole-heartedly I say that
[01:09.93] Knowing there is no pay back
[01:11.23] For those who are constantly giving
[01:12.96] I just pray that she knows that I care and love her
[01:15.81] I see the cross she bares
[01:17.30] As she walks through the struggle
[01:18.57] And still she remains humble in uncertainty
[01:20.97] As her life changed with two major brain surgeries
[01:23.53] And an insurance agency she gotta argue with
[01:26.29] To get the medicine she needs inside her arteries
[01:28.70] And though it’s hard for me
[01:29.94] To understand just how she does it
[01:31.55] I know I’m a better man because of it
[01:33.60] So many cracks that us people can fall through
[01:35.53] Yet the love of your mother still calls you
[01:39.86]
[01:58.66] Father is an ex-marine
[01:59.99] And for my moms I know he’d drop everything
[02:02.14] Reading psalms he’d stop and try to tell me things
[02:04.58] He knew I wouldn’t understand
[02:06.11] Until I got inside the hell of things
[02:08.16] And the bell would ring and I would go rounds
[02:10.21] Fighting on a similar road he had to go down
[02:12.70] Without him I’d have no sound no soul
[02:15.07] And definitely no rock and roll
[02:17.28] Regardless of the copies I sold he still backs me
[02:19.91] Reaching for that level as the devil keeps attacking me
[02:22.92] Is this how it has to be
[02:24.43] Well if it happens to you then it happens to me
[02:26.97] He said that’s the meaning of family
[02:29.39] Form a team of the people you love understand me
[02:32.32] He always knew that there was more to me
[02:33.84] Supporting me
[02:34.61] Reassuring me to be proud of being Portuguese
[02:37.29] And though I’m sure that he
[02:38.51] Don’t understand just how I love him
[02:39.72] The conversation we had and how I learned from them
[02:42.22] Contemplating with dad on how the worlds turning
[02:44.44] Concentrating on the good
[02:45.64] When the bad is hurting someone
[02:47.34] I heard from someone
[02:48.31] We are the light that shines through
[02:49.58] And it helps to know your family is right behind you
[02:51.97] So many cracks that us people can fall through
[02:53.96] Yet the love of your father still calls you
[02:58.41]
