Appreciated Lyrics by Jack Rootes

2 AM in Aylesbury

0

[Hook]

Mother, I know right now you're busy
But I was wondering
If you could make some time to see me

Mother, I know life's complicated
But I just wanna take some time
To tell you that you're appreciated

[Verse 1]

Dear mum, I know you're probably busy right now
But I hope for a few minutes, you can bow down
To listen to some words that I want to say
That I hope will brighten up all your rainy days
I feel blessed to have such a tomboy mother
That raised me to be the best like no other
And I know that you'll always have my back
When it's Me Against The World like I'm 2Pac

I hope the Joan of Arc of the Rootes family
Listens to this and is feeling real proud o' me
Ready to fight the world, you've got no fear
As you fight to make sure my path is clear
We've had our share of fallouts like nuclear bombs
But the fallouts we have never last too long
I know that I can be a pain at times
But I'm doing the best I can now with this life

[Hook]

[Verse 2]

You wish for me to rise up out of the dirt
Like a flower, as I try and find some work
If I ever failed, then you'd tell me to stay positive
But you still support me when I do the opposite
I remember when you would take me to your workplace
'Cause you had nowhere else to put me in the first place
Even on days where work left you stressed
You were working hard to keep a roof over our heads

You made sure to never let my joy end
As you took hard knocks from an ex-boyfriend
Keeping yourself strong during my many visits
A million heartbreaks, but you're still strong in spirit
From when my step dad turned out to be a joke
To when your last boyfriend left your heart broke
And I know this last line is gonna sound sappy
But you know you only need your son to be happy

[Hook]

[Verse 3]

A hardworking caring mother, I'm still amazed
A lot of hardships in life, but you never changed
Willing to work long shifts to get the money
Making sure life is smooth for us like honey
Even going long weeks without a day off
Only way I see you stopping's if you got laid off
And I can see that you work with such quickness
Even if you were suffering injury or sickness!

Honestly mum, I know that life can sometimes get bleak
So here's a little promise from me I'm willing to keep:
I'll work 'till there's nothing you'd want that I can't afford
When I'm done, you won't have to work any more
Where you can chill and relax like a lazy sunday
And I promise that I'll give you grandkids one day
But 'till that day comes, I can only try & be great
'Cause I love you mum, and that'll never change!

[Hook]
