The Mama Song Lyrics - Singles - Maura Matlak / Mah-ruh

My mama said baby, your generation seems disconnected from the real world 

And I said maybe you might be right but it's the only one I'm part of 

She said tell me why's it take you so long to find a lovre who is good to you 

And I said mom I honestly don't really know but we can't all be dad and you 

She said ooo my child now you listen close 

And you will hear the rhythms of the universe 

Before it gets better it might get worse 

So hold on to what you love 

Hold on to what you love 

And let go of what hurts 

And she baby, it's nice to have you home, can't you stay another week at least? 

I said the thing is, you know I'd love to but if I do I'll never leave 

And she said therein lies the problem, all you kids think you can give up so easily 

You're all just looking for some pill or potion or magic spell to take away the pain you feel inside 

She said ooo my child now you listen close 

And you will hear the rhythms of the universe 

Before it gets better it might get worse 

So hold on to what you love 

Hold on to what you love 

And let go of what hurts 

I spend all my money in rent 

I don't have much left for self-improvement 

So I buried my head in my mother's arms and cried and cried that night 

And I said please tell me what is wrong and right 

Or am I wasting all my time? 

She said ooo my child now you listen close 

And you will hear the rhythms of the universe 

Before it gets better it might get worse 

She said ooo my child now you listen close 

And you will hear the rhythms of the universe 

Before it gets better it might get worse 

So hold on to what you love 

Hold on to what you love 

Hold on to what you love 

She said ooo my child now you listen close 

And you will hear the rhythms of the universe 

Before it gets better it might get worse 

So hold on to what you love 

Hold on to what you love 

And let go of what hurts 

Hold on to what you love 

And let go of what hurts 

Hold on to what you love 

And let go of 

what hurts
