Celebrate

[Verse 1]
Mommy I don’t wanna go no more, I’m fed up
Running out of luck but she said keep your head up
Gimme the smile that I like so much
See you can give it all but you can never give up
She equalled love and advice
Doesn’t matter if a cats black or white it just gotta catch mice
It's alright, think about it
Be proud of who you are, don’t let fear be an advisor
I love you so much, doubled the love
Gave me all that I needed when I was feeling fucked up
She - said don’t worry and I said I’m sorry
Cause I made her cry sometimes
Gave her the scare of her life sometimes
But that’s life sometimes
Cause love means that you are gonna fight some times she said
And now I understand
She was playing both mom and dad, good and bad cop, damn

[Chorus]
Momma now we celebrate, oh oh oh
Momma now we celebrate, oh oh oh
Momma now we celebrate, oh oh oh
Momma now we celebrate, oh oh oh

[Verse 2]
Mommy I don’t wanna go no more can I stay
Please can I just sit right here all day
We could go for a walk or if you wanted we could even pray
I’d rather see you smile than see the pain (Pain)
So young but it’s all clear to me
Like blue skies but you only see the clouds blocking the heavenly
You told me to hold on and believe
But almost lost faith due to pain absorbing all your energy
So please, let me just make it right
She said, you can’t turn back the hands of time
Let me be and I’ll be fine in a while
But fine in a while was not being defined by time
So while I, watched time passing by
She smiled at me and she sang 'que sera sera'
So whatever will be will be
Heads up high, the strong survive, but now we celebrate

[Chorus]
Momma now we celebrate, oh oh oh
Momma now we celebrate, oh oh oh
Momma now we celebrate, oh oh oh
Momma now we celebrate, oh oh oh

[Verse 3]
You are my lion, my power, my zion
My flag waving proudly, on top of the mountain
The force I rely on, you’re my beacon light
Show me the way, shine on
Riding through the storm, trying to find home
Gotta let you know you define home
You're an icon, my mom
I was raised by a star, so I shine on

[Bridge]
We had a little more heartache but we had a little more faith
We had a little more heartache but we had a little more faith
We had a little more heartache but we had a little more faith
We had a little more heartache but we had a little more faith

[Chorus]
Momma now we celebrate, oh oh oh
Momma now we celebrate, oh oh oh
Momma now we celebrate, oh oh oh
Momma now we celebrate, oh oh oh
