Verse Mother may I, I would say Yes sweet baby take it away It won't be long, just remember that Powerful is the woman in you Stay true And she'd come to me when fire & water was gone To caress the empty with a song Saying why cry for anger that bullets the sky Just remember I'll remember & mama I'll get by... Verse I know my face seems crazed & wild But I got her eyes, A mama's child am I She's blessed with grace & is smooth as a line And when I shade she helps me shine And she comes to me when there's nothing I believe And holds me so high yes I am free Saying why hold the anger, it won't let you fly Just remember I'll remember & mama mama I'll get by... Confused by my own illusions She said that it's only my pride And even the simplest solutions Still won't heal my mind So I'll remember I'll remember and I'll get by
