Mama, I Know Lyrics

Ah I'm screwing it up

I know I am but it's fine

Okay

Do

You remember when I was a little girl

You were convinced I'd take on the world

And now

I believe it too

Please

Don't be fooled

This ain't what you so seemed to think

Although I always felt you had an inkling

Just sit down and breathe

Mama, I know

That the stars you used to think were aligned

Knocked off course

Please don't take this as a sign

Of

I'm not who I used to be

I'm still me

Daddy, I'm sure

You're thinking this couldn't be the only way to go

Look, I promise you that there is no

Other way

For me to live a life so truthfully

Oh no

I promised myself I wouldn't cry

Can't get it together

I could die

But I've got something to say

Oh

Oh

Time's startin to fly

And I can't take wasting one minute more

In the world are all the great things in store

To feel it I

Must set me free

All my life

I tried to hide in fear of losing you

So in my mind

I come to find

I lost me

Where's my pride

Have no guide

And nobody knows but me

Tell me what I'm to do

When right here lies the truth

Brazen in me

Mama, I know

That the stars you used to think were aligned

Knocked off course

Please don't take this as a sign

Of

I'm not who I used to be

I'm still me

Daddy, I'm sure

You're thinking this couldn't be the only way to go

Look, I promise you that there is no

Other way

For me to live a life so truthfully

I gotta be true to me

I gotta be true to me
