She was so young with such innocent eyes, she always dreamt of a fairytale life
And all the things that your money can't buy, she thought daddy was a wonderful guy
Then suddenly things seemed to change, it was the moment she took on his name
He took his anger out on her face, she kept all of her pain locked away...

Oh mother, we're stronger from all of the tears you have shed
Oh mother, don't look back 'cause he'll never hurt us again
So mother, I thank you for all that you've done and still do
You got me, I got you, together we always pull through
We always pull through (oh mother, oh mother, oh mother)

It was the day that he turned on his kids, that she knew she had to leave him
So many voices up inside of her head, saying over and over and over "you deserve much more than this"
She was so sick of believing the lies and trying to hide, covering the curtain bruises
So tired for defending her life, she could have died, fighting for the lives of her children

Oh mother, we're stronger from all of the tears you have shed
Oh mother, don't look back 'cause he'll never hurt us again
So mother, I thank you for all that you've done and still do
You got me, I got you, together we always pull through
We always pull through (oh mother, oh mother, oh mother)

All of your life you have spent, carrying your hurt and regret but mama, he'll never touch us again
When anybody's trying to take you down, just remember who's still around
It's over, and we're stronger and we'll never have to go back again

Oh mother, we're stronger from all of the tears you have shed
Oh mother, don't look back 'cause he'll never hurt us again
So mother, I thank you for all that you've done and still do
You got me, I got you, together we always pull through
We always pull through, we always pull through

I love you mom
