Million Questions

You're tough Patrick
You're tough
Follow your heart

Mama I'mma never stop talking to you
Don't you ever stop talking back to me
I know you're tired, mama hold my hand
Hold on tight for as long as you can

I open my eyes, so that I can see
Open my mind, let my mind go free
Open my heart so that people can see
What kinda things have been bothering me
It's been one long ride, and I finally plea
It's my last resort you don't need to agree
Weights to much, I can barely breath
My knees are giving in this is what I need
It's been fifteen years, since my first care
I remember that shit, cuz I was there
I dropped what I had in my hands didn't care
Left my teddy bear to approach my mom
Without any hair on her head, what?
What you mean it disappeared?
Tears streaming down and it wet her cheek
She had built the courage, she needed to speak
And the moment she had feared was suddenly there
She waved me over so I came over
She hugged me harder then I can remember anyone ever
Hugging me
But that was actually the point in time that it all became so clear
The two minute silence and the two minute stare
Something was wrong but how do you prepare
In a front row seat to the world premiere
Her burden unloaded, so she talking sincere
With a message for a kid that I didn't wanna hear
Take good care of the time left to share
It's no good news, it's a poisonous spare
Silence in the room but love in the air
Try to calmed me down but it went to my head
This is what they told me, but this is what I said

Mama Imma never stop talking to you
Don't you ever stop talking back to me
I know you're tired, mama hold my hand
Hold on tight for as long as you can
Mama Imma never stop talking to you
Don't you ever stop talking back to me
I know you're tired, mama hold my hand
Hold on tight for as long as you, can

Close my eyes, don't need to see
What my mind keep showing me
Haunted dreams keep killing me
Collar on my neck God set me free
It's dark in this mist but I'm going on
It's got me to my knees but I'm holding on
My hands tied up, God damn this rope
I refuse to give up but I'm losing hope
Cuz when I go home this is what I meet
My mom on iv cuz she can't eat
Nothing I can do but take a seat
Start a conversation and hear her speak
This might be the end, so when I gotta leave
Hold her in hand for one more beat
Look her in the eye and I kiss her on the cheek
Rub her on her neck and I tick her feet
I bite my lip as I leave that room
It tears me up and it kills my mood
I'm a sensitive dude in the middle of a feud
Trying to stay in tune when I meet my platoon
But its all to soon, for you to moon
I love you mom, give me one more noon
And in case can't I'll still talk to you
Don't you ever stop talking back to me
See this is what it come to, my final thought
Bought you flowers, hoping time is what you got
Music is timeless, if only I could stop
Time for a second, tell you how you rock
Doing your best always, easy or not
Always with a smile, and you're always there to take
Now I'm all out of quarters and I almost forgot
Time is running out but my questions are not

Mama I'mma never stop talking to you
Don't you ever stop talking back to me
I know you're tired, mama hold my hand
Hold on tight for as long as you can
Mama I'mma never stop talking to you
Don't you ever stop talking back to me
I know you're tired, mama hold my hand
Hold on tight for as long as you, can

I hope that I have given you what you need to believe in yourself
And to keep going, and whatever your goals are
Work hard and you'll make it
It really means something to me that you have stuff that you're interested in
It makes me really happy for you and its all a mom could want
You can just imagine me smiling
Anyway looking at you and
