Mommy, I was born your innocent daughter,
Mommy, I was born without anyone but you.
Mommy, I wanted to be the best for you,
Mommy, I am different but still your child.
Mommy, had you any idea that as I grew
I would choose to walk this unpopular path.
Mommy, had you known all this right as you hold me now
Would you still have chosen to take me home?

Mommy, I am growing up so strong and yet humble
Mommy, I am so glad you’re here when I stumble
Mommy, please don’t say those things they’re not true
Mommy, those banners and stickers make me blue
Mommy, why do the pastor and you think that way?
Mommy, if love is above all other things, why the fuss?

Mommy, I’m older and wiser and life seems unfair
Mommy, your words sting me and yet you seem not to care
Mommy, I must now tell you the truth
Mommy, I love her.

Mommy, please stop crying and screaming
Mommy, I don’t understand
Mommy, why do you regret having me?
Mommy, why am I such a shame?
Mommy, please…

Mommy, this is the last little bit
Mommy, this is my life and I am ending it
Mommy, you just didn’t try to understand
Mommy, I love you
Mommy, why?
