See, I've been blessed to be raised by a woman so strong * Cause even when I did things wrong * You would show me just the way that I should carry on * You kept me safe, and you protected me with all you had * And any time I was in need you gave your very last * Without you by my side, I never could survive

I remember wakin' up early monday morning * With my new dress, and my new shoes, with the buckles on em * And you would kiss my face, and say "I love you babe" * And you would be right there to take all of my fear away * And when he broke my heart, you said it was hist lost * And not to think about, "you're better off without him" * Remember when they said that I was never gonna make it * You said "it's yours, and all you gotta do is go and take it"
