about

This track is an overflow of what I feel for/toward my mother, who has always been there for me and who has always supported me following my heart. This, in turn, is my thank you and my recognition of the role she has/does play(ed) in my life. I love you Stephanie Lorraine Renick.

lyrics

I love you this much mom
with both arms out stretched
i love you this much mom
and i’ll never love you less
love you this much mom
to infinity from womb
i love you this much
i love you to the moon (x2)

VERSE 1
don’t know what to say
when I start to put the words down
we had some rainy days
i know part of us is hurt now

which is why I have to start this song with an apology
i’m sorry for days past when i treated you awefully
and it’s hard to admit that I’ve been wrong
it’s probably why i chose to put it into song

but please know that I’ve loved you all along
even tears you’ve caused have help to make me strong

i’m so sorry for my acts of disobedience
not learning from mistakes and i ended up repeating em
if i could i’d go back in time deletin’ em
think about my words before i end up speakin em
i was freakin dumb
i was freakin young
but i know my that my young dumb words still stung
still rung
inside your ears
it’s still love
despite the tears

VERSE 2
since day one youve been my number one fan
i want to color you handed me a crayon
i want to build you helped me with the plans
i made mistakes you gave me nother chance

i can’t say that it’s always been perfect
but i can say that its been worth it
when i felt worthless youd help me find my worth in
the only one worthy of our worship

you’ve encouraged me as i’ve found my purpose
your love that’s always fervent would look beneath the surface

push me and challenge me
push me and balance me

somethin like a balance beam
becuz life is challenging

so you challenge me to go beyond my limits
and you taught me it’s not over til its finished
and that the gospel’s something that you live in
and if you want it go and get it

VERSE 3
this past christmas you became a grandma
and he don’t like the title but ken became a grandpa
i’m so thankful that both of you are caring
because my son... will get to share in
love from the heavens by way of his grandparents
and i hope that relationship is one that he will cherish
well let’s get back to the reason that i wrote this
in this life it’s easy to lose focus
it’s easy not to notice
the people right in front of you
something i don’t want to do
a lot to do is no excuse
“momma”
not to take the time out just to tell you
what you mean
what youve done
and how it has affected me
you protected me
never once neglected me
with love you made this recipe
taught me to love my enemies
taught me what it means
to see Jesus as a friend to me
you love forever blesses me
and will until the death of me....
