Always Tried

[Verse]
Mom you stumbled down the road so rough
Your hands were strong but life was tough
Raised me on hope with a bag full of dreams
Sometimes it tore at the fragile seams
[Chorus]
You always tried never turned away
Held me close through the darkest day
May not have been perfect but you stayed
Love was the anchor you always laid
[Verse 2]
Pop your shadow loomed like a mountain tall
We fought and cracked but you caught my fall
The wisdom you gave came with a price
But you taught me wrong can taste like advice
[Chorus]
You always tried never turned away
Held me close through the hardest day
May not have been perfect but you stayed
Love was the anchor you always laid
[Bridge]
You gave me scars that I wear with pride
Lessons carved deep I’ll never hide
Roots so tangled but they still grow
In the love you both let overflow
[Chorus]
You always tried never turned away
Held me close through the hardest day
May not have been perfect but you stayed
Love was the anchor you always laid
