Mama
Will you make it out?
And Papa
Are you good?
I've been thinking 'bout family,
Is it what it seems?
And loving,
what's that mean?
I been hearing 'bout babies,
covered in alcohol
And mothers digging graves
So tell me now, mama
Will I make it out?
And papa,
Am I strong?
I been thinking 'bout the future,
and it seems to me
That nothing comes for free
After all, when in doubt
I know that I could say I'm good with it
But I know, in my heart
There's something more that I could do with it
Mama,
Will I make it out?
And Papa,
Am I strong?
I been thinking 'bout family,
is it worth it all?
And money, well that grows small
I been thinking 'bout mama,
Will I make it out?
And Papa,
Am I strong?
