Burden - Hey Mama Lyrics

Hey mom, I know it's been a long time since you've seen your boy and I'm sorry
Hey mom, looks like I turned out fine, all besides a little trouble to follow me
Hey mom, I hope you heard about the man I've become and I'm making you proud of me
Hey mom, I hope you know that I love you and you'll always be a part of me

It's been some years, too many years, I know all of these times brought so many tears
I used to hold resentment cause you wasn't there, but mama was addicted and it's pretty clear
And I'm grown enough, today I know enough, to understand something that you got no control
Enough, ain't gotta make things right, everything is all good, I hope you see in my lifeline

I spent some time out in Hollywood, walk of fame wasn't all that I thought it was
I liked the simple things in life, things I never had, and never felt what it was like, mama
I've been down some rocky roads, I've been high, I've been low, I've been right, I've been wrong
But I've tried all along, I got no quitting me, I know I'm strong, and I know you listening

Hey mama, I know it's been a long time since you seen your boy and I'm sorry
Hey mama, looks like I turned out fine, all besides a little trouble to follow me
Hey mama, I hope you heard about the man I've become and I'm making you proud of me
Hey mama, I hope you know that I love you and you'll always be a part of me

Oh yeah, I fell in love mama, I'm talking about a type that sent from up above mama
Wish you could meet her, but I went and screwed it up mama
Yeah I'm tough, but sometimes I need a hug mama
I know I was a badass kid, I'm sorry for stressing you with all the things I did

It's crazy how much could happen in this life, we live in dark places
But still you shine like this and I miss you, I keep telling myself I make time to visit
I know I disappoint you when I make wrong decisions
And lately I done changed so many ways I was living, my everything's what I'm giving

I've seen the world through a different view, made a whole lot of money, one thing it doesn't do
Is buy back time that you're losing mama, you know there'll never be another you
Hey mama, I know it's been a long time since you've seen your boy and I'm sorry
Hey mama, looks like I turned out fine, all besides a little trouble to follow me

Hey mama, I hope you heard about the man I've become and I'm making you proud of me
Hey mama, I hope you know that I love you and you'll always be a part of me
Hey mama, I hope you know that I love you and you'll always be a part of me
