I stand next to you
She can't see why this pain shows her
I don't wanna see you hurt anymore
This time just smile for me
Oh, oh, oh
Open the door,
take a look at what she been through
Threw a lot of shit, and did it all for you
Turned nothing into something real magic
She just wanna see it happen
She came a long way
from pushing that baby car
riage down the hallway
She never could share the colors
and the laughter and the brush in her hair
Cause her baby daddy
not a baby daddy who cared
Nev er called, never came around,
never was a part of home
To the point that they called him
Mr. Invisible
Mr. never trust, Mr. never love us
Mr. never did a damn
thing, but the f***
But it's cool,
cause they got a roof over their heads
And if you smell it,
there's something in the air
I think mama cook
in' my favorite shit
She so incredible, I gotta let her know,
man I stand next to you
She can't see why this pain shows her
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
don't want to see you hurt any more,
oh, oh, oh
This time, just smile for me
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
Yeah, look in the mirror,
you gon' see her looking back
From the lines in between
your eyebrows and your smile
She looks like that, she looks like you
But the lines go deep
because of what she been through
From going to work, leaving the kid at home
To losing a job and getting kicked
out of home
Shit, we don't need this,
let's go to Grandma
She gon' understand,
call the landlub
Take that and take this,
we leavin' now
You got your things, no long faces
Givin' me a kiss, my shoelaces
She so incredible, I gotta let her know,
man I stand next to you
She can't see why this pain chose her
I don't wanna see you hurt anymore
Oh, oh, this time, just smile for me
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Now her tears are fallin',
I wanna wipe them off
Sit down, mama, why you lovin' for?
I don't wanna see you hurt,
but that's all you get
When you with him,
don't you see all of that did?
How he treatin' you,
takin' you for granted
When you took him in, made a
bet, even cook for him
Nah, mama,
you don't need to love that
We can do better by ourselves, he bad
I know it's hard facin',
you don't wanna be alone
But that's no reason to
take that man home
Not after what he did to you,
treatin' you like trash
You are incredible,
I hope you know
that I stand next to you
She can't see why this pain chose her
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I don't wanna see you hurt anymore,
oh, oh,
This time
Music
I'm just fishing
Don't talk so loud
How are you? Good
How are you? I'm tired
But I feel good
Why don't a day, or two,
or three, or a week off?
I don't know. Sometimes you can't.
Or I can't.
There's too much to do.
I'm I don't call you that often.
That's okay.
But I miss you.
I miss you too.
But I'm going be soon.
I'll be back. Now? Yeah.
Is there anything else you
want to say
to the who are listening?
Be tough against your big brothers.
