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
