Mandala - My Mother's Eyes

My Lord, you kill me sometimes, you
My Lord, you kill me sometimes
Hold my hand, I will not fall
My mother's eyes get me through all of it
I'll come if you will call
Call my name, I'll stand tall
They can lead me to the gallows
Put around my neck a lasso
I will fasten up for battle
With your grace as my ammo
I'm surrounded by these walls
Everything I have dissolves
Still my chin-up, I stand tall
You're the one that I hallow
My mother's voice singing in the back
If she isn't then my notes are always flat
I can't really sing good, that's why I rap
But my soul's really a singer, it's a fact
I'mma strugglin' soul
Always so unsatisfied, want somethin' mo
I'm broken yo, trying hard to rise but still stay humble though
And I don't know, I be on the run so much I got no home
I cuddle close to my Mother Mary cuz it's tough to cope
I glance at her eyes
And when I do, I just despise myself
My sins and all my lies
My facade and my disguise
You see me for who I am
I cannot keep up this whole sham
Cuz you know me and understand
I put myself in your hands
My Lord, you kill me sometimes, you
My Lord, you kill me sometimes
Hold my hand, I will not fall
My mother's eyes get me through all of it
I'll come if you will call
Say my name, I'll stand tall
