Mama  she has taught me well 
Told me when I was young 
"Son  your life's an open book 
Don't close it 'fore its done" 
"The brightest flame burns quickest" 
That's what I heard her say 
A son's heart's owed to mother 
But I must find my way 
Let my heart go 
Let your son grow 
Mama  let my heart go 
or let this heart be still 
Yeah  still 
Rebel  my new last name 
Wild blood in my veins 
Apron strings around my neck 
The mark that still remains 
Left home at an early age 
Of what I heard was wrong 
I never asked forgiveness 
But what is said is done 
Let my heart go 
Let your son grow 
Mama, let my heart go 
Let this heart be still 
Never I ask of you 
But never I gave 
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave 
Never I ask of you 
But never I gave 
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave 
So let this heart be still 
Mama, now I'm coming home 
I'm not all you wished of me 
A mother's love for her son 
Unspoken, and maybe 
Yeah, I took your love for granted 
and all the things you said to me 
I need your arms to welcome me 
But, a cold stone's all I see 
Let my heart go 
Let your son grow 
Mama, let my heart go 
Let this heart be still 
Let my heart go 
Mama, let my heart go 
You never let my heart go 
So let this heart be still 
Never I ask of you 
But never I gave 
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave 
Never I ask of you 
But never I gave 
But you gave me your emptiness that I'll take to my grave 
Let this heart be still
