Hi Mum

Well hey mum Is me Your oldest Feels like I’ve been without u the longest Since the beginning So when I see a family glowing I really do be grinning I ain’t known such belonging Well at least I don’t remember Yet I still manage to miss you Why’s that? I see you as a sorta stranger Cos I know u don’t know me I may be half you But I don’t know half of you And you don’t know half of me So maybe we should talk more? Is that somthing you’d want? You said some tough And I ain’t saying I’m perfect I’d admit I’m suspect You said you didn’t love me That’s never left my mind Maybe that’s why I miss you Try and disprove you See I want you to need me, miss me uno All you seem to do is hate me tho So I’m here Wondering where we at Tryna remember a time When our family sat And we was all in one room No separation, didn’t need no zoom But I can’t get past the wall that’s built Can’t climb over or go round So I’ll just keep this frown You tuned my world upside down My mind inside out I’m still tryna correct it Need some joy to inject it Serotonin a needed chemical Maybe you’re the missing element yet i don’t want to be on your table
