Mom I Know

I know I’ve caused some problems in these past few years

And I know I’ve done some things that brought up a couple tears

But I’m going to make an effort and I’m going to try to change

It’s going to be hard and I know it will be strange

But I know that we’ll get used to it

Then everything will be great

But I know up until then there will be a lot on stake

Once the changes are made and these problems start to fade

The world will seem brighter

And our happiness not too late

But both you and I know I’m not the only one to make amends

And both you and I know we’re not ones to follow trends

But in our family’s past not too many apologies had last

Our lives began to crash causing quite a splash

And continuing from that splash created many waves

That has lasted through generations keeping those mistakes

Yet I know we should have learned

After so many have been burned

But we keep sticking our head in that fire

Longing for what we desire

No matter how much it really hurts

No matter how hard we hit the dirt

Things are getting better though

You and I are continuing to grow

Just remember every time you tell me how much it hurts

Just remember Mom…I know
