Josh Tobias - Golden Child Lyrics

Mama you raised me to be patient and be kind
Never start no trouble keep the devil off my mind

As I've grown I've found this peace is hard to find
C
With a mind like raging water and a heart that's never satisfied
G. D
But I still try

I believe that's there's a time to be afraid
Buts it's a sin to sit and wallow
And let a good life slip away

It's time to be a man and push aside your pain
Is what i whispered to myself the day we laid those roses on your grave

But momma I'm still afraid

Oh I still miss the hands that held me at night
And the voice that I heard in the morn

The song that you sang fore you turned out the light
Got this cold house feeling warm

Oh how I wish you'd stayed a while
Mama am I still your golden child?

Ohhh ohhh

Tell me I'm still your golden child

Father told us things would never be the same
That we needed to be strong and never forget where we came

After all these years
The emptiness remains
It gets harder to remember
The sound of your voice calling my name
Father I'm losing strength
