A Mother's Prayer

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Gonna rise up mother, gonna take back what is mine

Gonna hold it tight in my hand, till the end of time

And will you kiss my cheek as I toe the line

And yes forgive this boyish gall

Running through another wall

I stand, I fall, I want it all

I'm a shooting star across the night

I'm a flaming wreck that's burning bright

And I don't care how you feel

And I should seal the deal

In a mother's prayer, it's all, all right

All right

Let the game begin, let the chips fall where they may

Let the devil grin, no peace for me, let the angels fly away

And can we sit my arms around the fray

And please forgive my soulless hate

But not before it's all too late

I stand, I fall, I want it all

I take, I break, I'm your mistake

I'm a shooting star across the night

I'm a flaming wreck that's burning bright

I don't care how you feel

And I should seal the deal

In a mother's prayer, it's all, all right

All right

C'mon, c'mon, I'm begging forgiveness

C'mon, c'mon, I enter the fray

C'mon, c'mon, bestow the forgiveness

C'mon, c'mon, a brand new day

C'mon, c'mon, a brand new day

C'mon, c'mon, a brand new day

I'm a shooting star across the night

I'm a flaming wreck that's burning bright

And I don't care how you feel

And I should seal the deal

In a mother's prayer, it's all, all right

All right, all right

I'm a shooting star across the night
