Hey, Momma, remember when we left home? Damn, I was barely half grown I kept crying as you sat me on that Greyhound And tried to reassure me that things would be okay now But they wasn't, and we both saw it coming, I mean I was just a kid but I was far from a dummy And as the pain grew you got more reckless and destructive Like the time you tried to fight and chase Matt around in public It was crazy, and I ain't never seen it one way I just used to think the cops would take you from us one day And each time I had to be as strong as I could be and more And take myself to places I had never ****ing seen before Tragic, even in your sanity was madness You tried to make peace so you could teach me how to grasp it You should know I'm proud you're doing better for yourself And that everything you've been made me exactly who I am And it's you and me, and everything we are is everything we'll be I swear I'll always love you, I know you feel the same And I just want to say you made it through the pain Don't let me go Set my soul free, let me grow Don't let me go Set my soul free, let me grow Hey, Dee, I know sometimes you ****ing hate me But we've been through a lot and I've been thinking 'bout it lately We seen a lot of shit some kids should never have to see Like the shelter, and every night we starved ourselves to sleep Or like when Daniel used to hurt me and you tried to intervene Or when I told you I was going to kill you all when you were sleeping We were crazy, but we had a lot of bad examples Living how we were living, that's a lot of shit to handle And every time we turned around it seemed like she was hurt again Even when she promised us we'd never have to hurt again And we never had a family But even with the hatred, we have never not had We You should know that I'd be here until the curtains close Even when you lose yourself, here until your hurting goes You should know I'm proud you're doing better for yourself And that everything you've been made me exactly who I am And it's you and me, and everything we are is everything we'll be I swear I'll always love you, I know you feel the same And I just want to say you made it through the pain And don't let me go Set my soul free, let me grow I said, don't let me go Set my soul free, let me grow Dear little girl inside, everything is fine We got through all the pain and even got to keep our minds Sometimes we still get crazy, but not the way we used to When the love that you know now is nothing you were used to Sometimes you have to stop feeling sorry for yourself And love You, that way you can teach anybody else And if it's pain that you were feeling, you release it till it stops Or else it will get stronger and just beat you till you drop You're a lot smarter than you're ever given credit for Live like a simile, lessons are a metaphor I hope one day you're strong enough to break free from the cage And that everything inside you is the reason I be great And it's you and me, and everything we are is everything we'll be I swear I'll always love you, I know you feel the same And I just want to say you made it through to Ra'een
