I wish you could have met your mother
I hope you'd have been like her too
She had innocence the day i met her
I'd like to think she'd have given that to you
Though she had grown up fighting
She always wound up on her feet
I know you would have loved your mother
It's too bad you didn't have the chance to meet
I loved you when you were inside the womb
Now i hold you in my heart instead of my hands
I walk around with this open wound
I hold you in my heart instead of my hands
I hope you would have loved your father
I'd have done my absolute best
I would have taught you about love and honor
Virtues and living with respect
I'd want you to be a light unto this world
That seems like it's always so dark
But fate dealt me it's cold, cold hand
And it took away your beating heart
I loved you when you were inside the womb
Now i hold you in my heart instead of my hands
I walk around with this open wound
I hold you in my heart instead of my hands
I choke back a tear, i feel the regret
I hang my head in shame, and see the cold sweat
I pick up my head, i look at the cross
Can't clear my mind cause i know the cost
Who am I
Who was I
Who am I
Who was I to play god
