Strong Because You Are

Original

My mother's eyes have seen it all

It's in my veins, it's in my blood, it never leaves me

My mother's dream survived the storm

When life gets hard, open your heart, don't stop believing

Your dreams, my dreams

Mama, I know I'm only strong because you are

Come and take my hand, we'll touch the stars

It's my turn now to take you in my arms

I'm grateful for your scars, I'm strong because you are

Hey-ayy-hey, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy

Hey-ayy-hey, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy

I've been waiting my whole life for this moment I swear, mama (I'll)

Find my way despite it all, I'll make it, make it, make it

My blessings are received for all I give the world keeps taking

My dream's, my dream, my dream

My dream, my dream, hold my dream

Mama, I know I'm only strong because you are

Come and take my hand, we'll touch the stars

It's my turn now to take you in my arms

I'm grateful for your scars, I'm strong because you are

Hey-ayy-hey, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy

Hey-ayy-hey, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy

Hey-ayy-hey, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy

Hey-ayy-hey, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy

Hey-ayy-hey, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy

Hey-ayy-hey, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy

Hey-ayy-hey, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy

Hey-ayy-hey, ayy-ayy-ayy-ayy
