Taking Care of Momma

Time has went by and now we've switched roles
Having me at 16 and dealing with life's  blows
To me there was no problem you couldn't solve
Through my growing up you were always involved
Now you're getting older and i must take care of you
You've always had an independent point of view 
There's nothing wrong with me paying you back
This is the story of our lives so sit back and relax
A baby cant help the fact that their dependant 
Now the tables have turned dont be offended
This is a time for me to show my appreciation
You fed me and made sure i got my education 
I dont remember going to bed with any worries 
You taught us to pray and to read our bible stories
Anything you need i will try to provide for you
Im by your side with anything you may go through  
Cooking,laundry and etc is what you did for me
Ill love to do for you as well, even financially
You cant burden me anymore than i burden you  
With you mother I'm just trying  to apply the golden rule
You were the best mother a child could have ever had
Seeing you grow older isnt easy it makes me sad
Aging from a baby to an adult back to a child
To be able to care for you mom makes me very proud
