Closure

[Spoken Word]

(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 me 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 womеn a little bit better

Maybе 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

[Outro]

Love you, too
