[Verse 1]
You weren't expecting me until you were
You had nothing, but all love of the world
Suddenly, everything changed
On the day that I came
Nothing else would be the same
[Verse 2]
When I would cry, you couldn't know why
When I would sleep, you would stay up all night
The life you knew I took it away
And you pray every day
For me always to be safe
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll never forget
When I had no one to play
With me, you would
How could I forget
The Sunday cakes, you
Really tried to teach me how to cook
[Chorus]
Oh, mom
I'm sorry I can't be there today
Stay Strong
And have in mind I'm on my way
To become
Everything for what you've always prayed
Hold on
I'll come back home someday
[Verse 4]
I know I wasn't easy as a teen
I made you miserable
I wouldn't eat anything
I was so young and so dumb
Thinking I had a clue
I said the worst kind of words
I didn't listen to you
[Verse 5]
I couldn't understand your sacrifice
I judged too hard, I made a war
But you would never fight
If I knew then what I know now
I would have never spent
All those years being mean
I would be by your side
[Chorus 2]
I'm sorry, mom, for what I've done
I know you think you are the one
Who needs to apologize, you don't
Thank you, mom
For all you've done
You did your best, you always do
To prove you that here's this song
[Chorus]
Oh mom
I'm sorry I can't be there today
Stay Strong
And have in mind I'm on my way
To become
Everything for what you've always prayed
Hold on
I'll come back home someday
Oh mom
I'm sorry I can't be there today
Stay Strong
And have in mind I'm on my way
To become
Everything for what you've always prayed
Hold on
I'll come back home someday
You weren't expecting me until you were
You had nothing, but all love of the world
Suddenly, everything changed
On the day that I came
Nothing else would be the same
[Verse 2]
When I would cry, you couldn't know why
When I would sleep, you would stay up all night
The life you knew I took it away
And you pray every day
For me always to be safe
[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll never forget
When I had no one to play
With me, you would
How could I forget
The Sunday cakes, you
Really tried to teach me how to cook
[Chorus]
Oh, mom
I'm sorry I can't be there today
Stay Strong
And have in mind I'm on my way
To become
Everything for what you've always prayed
Hold on
I'll come back home someday
[Verse 4]
I know I wasn't easy as a teen
I made you miserable

Oh mom
I'm sorry I can't be there today
Stay Strong
And have in mind I'm on my way
To become
Everything for what you've always prayed
Hold on
I'll come back home someday
