Listen
Listen to me if not her,
I don't mean to challenge you our concepts but I've gotta say: you've grown!
You're no longer the little boy she's always known.
Now, it's all about you and your phone,huh?
She's loved you from the day you were born
Even way before you ever became flesh and bone
And she let you run run to her each time you felt alone
But you call that history cause her little boy is gone
See, you've honestly changed. You've evolved now
Approaching the maturity stage, that's a totally different age
But all that's just a phase cause you're still her boy
Her little center of joy
As a matter of fact, you're the last person she'd ever want to annoy
Or at least that's how you put it
The day you raised your voice against her made her not to eat.
With a split heart, she fails to accept defeat for your mistake
So she puts up with it for her love for you's sake
She remembers her husband fled because of her unborn child
And that was you, so she loved you cause you were her own
He saw you as a mistake but she saw a blessing and had to reach out and take
She did all she did for your sake, can't you see?
And she had to do that for what fee?
Disobedience and insults? No, that was never what she had hoped for
What do you know? Her little star's still in there somewhere
All you have to do is reach in and make a fair choice
She'd know that boy anywhere just by the sound of his voice
