Paroles de Mama

I was your joy

I was your pride

Never a thing was I denied
And even though I know

You didn't have a lot to lean on



But now your love has turned to chains

I know your blood runs in my veins

That's not enough to keep me down and quiet

Like you own me



Chorus:

Better be good, never be bad
Gonna need your mama to get along

Mama, mama

You gotta let go of me



You say you know what's good for me

Like I am blind

Like you can see

I'll tell you this

I'm seeing clearer than I eevr could see



I want to stand

Your shadow falls

I want to dance

Your tempo crawls

I want to run

But you would rather have me walk behind you



Chorus



Don't you know that it can never be

Like it was before

Can't you see that I love you

But I'm not your baby

Not your baby any more
