A Life of Silence

'm standing here, in front of you The man I've become, but still so true The little boy who used to sit and play Now grown up, with a life of his own way I see the confusion in your eyes A mix of emotions, a mother's surprise You can't recognize the boy you once knew The one who'd hold your hand, and make your heart feel new Chorus: Momma, it's me, the little boy that grew I'm still the same, but now I'm new I've changed, but my heart remains the same Why can't you see me, momma, and love me the same? Verse 2: I know you're struggling to understand The choices I've made, and the path I've planned You taught me well, but now I'm my own way And though you may not like what I've become today I know you're scared, and maybe unsure But please don't forget, I'm still your son, for sure The memories we made, the laughter and tears Are they forgotten? Are they just distant years? Chorus: Momma, it's me, the little boy that grew I'm still the same, but now I'm new I've changed, but my heart remains the same Why can't you see me, momma, and love me the same? Bridge: We can work through this, we can find our way back To the love we had, to the memories we lack But please don't turn away from me now Give me a chance to prove myself somehow Chorus: Momma, it's me, the little boy that grew I'm still the same, but now I'm new I've changed, but my heart remains the same Why can't you see me, momma, and love me the same? Outro: Momma, it's me... please hear my plea Don't let our love fade away like a memory Recognize me... recognize my heart And let our bond start anew from the very start.
