Friends wanna kill me
But I give them all my loving anyway
If God won't forgive me
I'm not the only one to make amends
Mother, it's not in my hands
Try to understand it's only 'cause I can
Fools believe they can erase
All that they've done wrong
But I don't wanna be their son
Mother
Mother
She's trying to judge me
But I can see the sins that stains your smile
Friends say I got a few reasons
But I'm crawling out of the city
I'm tired of bowing to preachers all the time
Mother, it's not in my hands
Try to understand it's only 'cause I can
Fools believe they can erase
All that they've done wrong
But I don't wanna be their son
Mother
Mother
Friends say I got a few reasons
I'm crawling out of the city
I'm tired of bowing to preachers
Can't fight, so be a believer
Mother, it's not in my hands
Try to understand it's only 'cause I can
Fools believe they can erase
All that they've done wrong
But I don't wanna be their son
Mother
Mother
