No Matter What

When I was a young boy I was scared of growing up

I didn't understand it but I was terrified of love

Felt like I had to choose but it was outta my control

I needed to be saved I was going crazy on my own

Took me years to tell my mother I expected the worst

I gathered all the courage in the world

She said I love you no matter what

I just want you to be happy and always be who you are

She wrapped her arms around me

Said don't try to be what you're not

Cause I love you no matter what

She loves me no matter what

I got a little older wishing all my time away

Riding on the pavement every sunny day was grey

I trusted in my friends then all my world came crashing down

I wish I never said a thing cause to them I'm a stranger now

I ran home I saw my mother it was written on my face

Felt like I had a heart of glass about to break

She said I love you no matter what

I just want you to be happy and always be who you are

She wrapped her arms around me

Said don't try to be what you're not

Cause I love you no matter what

Now I'm a man and I'm so much wiser

I walk the earth with my head held higher

I got the love that I need

But I was still missing one special piece

My father looked at me

He said I love you no matter what

I just want you to be happy and always be who you are

He wrapped his arms around me

Said don't try to be what you're not

Cause I love you no matter what

He loves me no matter what

They love me no matter what
