(Mama's gonna buy you a mockingbird)
I'm always running in my dreams
(Mama's gonna buy you a mockingbird)
To the point where it feels like a nightmare
I realize, though, I've been running from this conversation
And if you think about it, you would try to bring closer to God through church and religion, you know?
I mean, look, it's okay to be religious if that's what you believe in
But I think that before you understand religion
We should all focus on understanding something that most of us can agree on
And that's the want for love
I wish you would've put the same amount of emphasis you put
In religion and learning that and following God
With the love you gave me, you know
I think, with that, maybe I would've treated women a little bit better
Maybe I would have had a little bit more trust for other people
Maybe I wouldn't feel the need to use my success as armor
A mockingbird represents innocence, you know?
And truthfully, I
Sometimes I feel like you could've protected that in a better way
But that, that's cool
Most important thing, though, is
I'm not mad at you and I'm okay with some of the things we've been through, you know?
And I want you to understand that
Love you, Mom
Okay, bye
Love you, too
