Ni Maamaa

[Chorus]
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa

[Verse 1]
Started in the E.R. wishing for a restart
Hook you up to IV’s, then you start to breathe more
Breaks me to see your, Hurting more than before
Look at you beside me, then I start to breathe hard
See you laying in bed, Oxygen’s pacing your breath
We’re waiting to get, The test that they send
From doctor to doctor repeated again
Now I can’t comprehend, The things that they’ve said
See that you’re scared I’m holding your hand
Thinking what can they offer it’s not making sense

[Pre-Chorus]
I love you, ma
And I hold you up
I love you, ma
And I hold you up

[Chorus]
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa

Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ishpendaagozi, Ni Maamaa
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ishpendaagozi, Ni Maamaa

[Verse 2]
Admitted you now, They’re bringing you in
Admittedly now I feel it begin
Anxiety high, I’m not giving in
Tears in my eyes, Not blinking again
Now I see you in the I.C.U
Everything we do, the things we’ve been through
Brought us to stay hoping you can move
See you’re in pain but I cry for you
Don’t want to go home, Leaving you on your own
I just can’t sleep when I leave you alone
I try to be strong cause I know that I’m grown
But the truth is mom I don’t want you to go

[Pre-Chorus]
I love you, ma
And I hold you up
I love you, ma
And I hold you up

[Chorus]
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa

Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ishpendaagozi, Ni Maamaa
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ishpendaagozi, Ni Maamaa
