mama you are appreciated
mama you are respected
mama you are not hated
mama you are not neglected
i wanna thank you for everything you've done
i know it was hard on you when he was gone
you raised us all on your own
you took care of us and gave us a warm home
you always pushed your needs on the background
just to make sure you could pay the bills and get things round
you stayed up to study all night
just so you could make our future look more bright
mama i just wanna let you know
that i will never forget what you did for me
and that i don't mean to let you go
but things have changed, that is what i want you to see
mama you are appreciated
mama you are respected
mama you are not hated
mama you are not neglected
Now we have lost connection
because you don't listen anymore
it's not going in the right direction
and it's to late to restore
You cannot blame me for shutting you out
for not telling and keeping my mouth
cause if i speak you immediately forget
the words i've just said
it hurts to be misunderstood
and to have lost our bond
maybe in the future wrong will turn into good
and we can speak to each other up front
But in the meantime i want you to know that
you are still appreciated
you are respected
you are not hated
you are not neglected
and i still love yah...
