Mama

i caused you pain
i made you cry
i made you curse your stars
i thought i was always right
but that made me love you more

you always wanted the best for me
you compromised your good for mine
how hard you've tried
to make me who i am today
i wanna treat you right,mum

i can still feel the past
when everything went wrong,all year long
but in your heart lied a song
that things will change

am just thinking
how would it have been
without u,mama?
i owe u my life
