wake up son of mine
momma got somethin’ to tell you
changes come
life will have its way
with your pride, son
take it like a man
hang on son of mine
the storm is blowing up your horizon
changes come
keep your dignity
take the high road
take it like a man
listen up son of mine
momma got something to tell you
all about growing pains
life will pound away
where the light don’t shine, son
take it like a man
suck it up son of mine
fucker blowing up your horizon
changes come
keep your dignity
take the high road
take it like a man
momma said like the rain
(this too shall pass)
like a kidney stone
(this too shall pass)
it’s just a broken heart, son
this pain will pass away
