mama

mama envisioned a life for me
her baby boy her pride and joy
but not like this
not like this

mama urged me to play with boys
no girly toys for her little boy
but not like this
not like this

i know she dreamed someday
i would marry and raise a family
but not like this
no not like this

mama if there’s one thing you
should understand you did well
in making me a man just not the
kind you had in mind

through dark days and cold nights
you kept us warm gave up your life
countless were your sacrifices and
i just wanna say thank you ill say it
again and again
i just wanna say thank you

the world

This beautiful world
In which we all live
It overflows with love
From the crust to the core

From trees to beings
From hills to the shores
There is this bond
That  can never be destroyed
