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 sowed 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, mind your last name 
Wild blood in my veins 
They bring 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 
Spoken, help me be 
I took your love for granted 
Not a thing you said to me 
I needed 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 
Or 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 
So let this heart be still
