Tell me Mama what is good an' bad
Tell me Mama what will be when I'm dead
Help me Mama to find a way outta here
Please, please Mama take away my faer
 
Tell me Mama what makes the world go round
Tell me Mama why can't I leave ground
I'd like to fly constructin' me wings
Rise up in the sky cut off all these strings
 
Why do you let me cry never keep an eye on my asking mind
don't you see me?
I'm searching my way honoured or betrayed don't know how to pray
how can I be me?
Why did you let me breathe with no plan underneath
treat me like a disease now whats wrong with me?
Go on ignoring my tears let me swallow my fears
if that's how life appears  then you will see
 
Tell me Mama, about your bottles ghost
how does he keep you laughing, when I need you most
How does he make you fly, but leaving me on the ground
Keep you in high-mode, but me just lost not found
 
So long Mama, I'm on my way
leaving your world behind, nothing more to say
Facing the challenge of that rat race life
Strong enough now to handle, things that will arrive
 
Why did you let me cry never kept an eye on my asking mind
you did not see me
I was searching my way and learned how to pray
honoured or betrayed it's up to me
Ok you let me breathe without plan underneath
I overcame the disease got mentality
I learned to cope with my tears how to handle my fears
prepared for life to appear now we will see
 
The bottles ghost seduced me I scared him away
I'll never come across the needle, drugs w'ont be my way
looking out for a girl to love, and take care for
we will have a house and children, one thing will be for sure
 
We'll never let them cry always keep an eye on their asking mind
we will be there
Help them finding their way teach them how to pray
honoured or betrayed how to be aware
We will let them breathe with a plan underneath
to reach out for their degrees how to be fair
We w'ont ignoring their tears help them out of their fears
show them a life that appears
with love and honesty,
empowered mentality,
courages diversity,
enduring curiosity,
generous simplicity
