My Mother's Son

I am my mothers son,so she always say As i gasp my first air in her arms she held me Like priceless yet valuable item never to lose me My first teacher ''say mama'' she taught me To her i was and i am flawless Try hurting me and you will know she ain't clawless For her love i got unconditional With each day plus one in additional Held me tight when i became emotional Those moments with her time stood still motionless To her giving i never got less But more and more Isn't my mom the best Because of me she never settled for less Strong black woman she fought without rest And if life was ever a test,am the one she got distinctions Her smile when she stares at me shows no restriction What she does in one word dedication Never to show desiccation That to my old man i come first I have her heart never to show her hurt True to those words she can put them in billboard charts Mama to me you are important than H2O For you make impossible possible Our house you always made it home Tattooed your name in my heart never to be alone Cause the word courage, you told me to be bold Make productive of everything that i hold Yes greatness is the work of your hands that's what you mold
