Original lyrics
ENWhen I was younger I didn't realize
The struggle that ensued after my father died
How was I supposed to know?
But if I could take it all back
I could've been a better son
At any other time
anyone else wouldn't have even tried
But you kept on going at your expense
Neglecting yourself
for the happiness of your kids
Until I was older I didn't know why
Why when we were smiling
you would always cry
I know it now but I didn't then
Why you struggled every day
for the happiness of your kids
I don't think I've said it enough
I should've thanked you when life was rough
You taught me more than anyone
Did more than some kids' parents would
Dealt with more shit than some people could
I respect you more than anyone
