She was so young
with such innocent eyes
She always dreamed
of a fairy tale life
And all the things
that your money can't buy
She thought that
he was a wonderful guy
Then suddenly things
seemed to change
It was the moment
she took on his name
He took his anger out
on her face
she kept all of her pain
locked away
Oh mother we're stronger
For all of the tears
you have shed
Oh mother don't look back
Cause he'll never
hurt us again
So mother I thank you
For all that
you've done and still do
You got me I got you
Together we always
pull through
We always pull through
We always pull through
Oh mother oh mother oh mother
It was the day
that he turned on the kids
That she knew
she just had to leave him
So many voices
inside of her head
Sayin' over and over
and over
You deserve much more
than this
She was so sick of
believin' the lies
And tryin' to hide
Covering the cuts
and bruises
So tired of defending
her life
She could have died
Fighting for the lives
of her children
Oh mother we're stronger
For all of the tears
you have shed
Oh mother don't look back
Cause he'll never
hurt us again
So mother I thank you
For all that
you've done and still do
You got me I got you
Together we always
pull through
Oh mother oh mother oh mother
All of your life
you have spent
Burying hurt and regret
But mama
He'll never touch us again
For every time he tried
to break you down
Just remember
who's still around
It's over
And we're stronger
And we'll never have to
go back again
Oh mother we're stronger
For all of the tears
you have shed
Oh mother don't look back
Cause he'll never
hurt us again
So mother I thank you
For all that
you've done and still do
You got me I got you
Together we always
pull through
Always pull through yeah
We always pull through yeah
I love you mom
