Like My Mother Does
People always say I have a laugh
Like my mother does
Guess that makes sense
She taught me how to smile when things get rough
I've got her spirit
And she's always got my back
When I look at her,
I think I wanna be just like that!
When I love, I give it all I got!
Like my mother does
When I'm scared, I bow my head and pray!
Like my mother does
When I feel weak, and un-pretty!
I know I'm beautiful and strong!
Because, I see my self
Like my mother does
I never met a stranger,
I can talk to anyone
Like my mother does
I let my temper fly
But she can walk away, when she's had enough
She sees everybody, for who they really are
I'm so thankful for her guidance,
She's helped me get this far
When I love, I give it all I got!
Like my mother does
And when I'm scared, I bow my head and pray!
Like my mother does
When I feel weak, and un-pretty!
I know I'm beautiful and strong!
Because, I see myself,
Like my mother does!
She's a rock!
She is grace!
She's an angel!
She's...
My heart and soul!
She does it all!
When I love! I give it all I got!
Like my mother does
And when I'm scared! I bow my head and pray!
Like my mother does
When I feel weak, and un-pretty!
I know I'm beautiful and strong!
Because, I see myself,
Like my mother does!
I hear people saying... I'm starting to look
Like my mother does'
