My rock
My rock
Everything was perfect just for us four
But when my father walked out the door
Felt as if we fell down to being poor.
But my mom taught me never to ask for more.
17 years of life and she’s been my rock.
She made sure my brother didn’t grow up to be no jock
And made sure I was able to run a flock.
But we still fought against the clock as it continued to go tick tock.
My mother is the one person I can’t be without
Because when we needed something she was out and about.
Kept food on the table and a roof over our heads
And at night she made sure we were able to sleep in two beds.
If there’s one individual I need, it’s my mom and why?
Because when things got rough, she always seen a bluer sky.
She never gave up and just said “Bye”
Because she knew the struggle would eventually die.
