I will Fbe with my mom at the end of her life
As I know that she would be for A#mine.
It's not obligation that leads me to say it,
It's Cjust how i iA#ntend to spend the timFe.
No person who gives out a part of themselves
Will ever be truly forgA#otten.
These parts will change hands,
And they surpass lifespans,
AClive as long as A#they are passed aFlong.
I remember the Gparts passed to me,
And after she's Cgone,
I will remember my Fmom.
F A# F A#
FMy mother sat like a book on the shelf
Through the cold autumn years of her A#life,
Replaying her memories like a tape on repeat
COver and A#over in her Fmind.
She'd always been the kind of a mother
Who would put others before herself,
This much i A#know.
There were men in her life
Who took well advantage Cbefore they A#got up to gFo.
imagine all of your Gmemories of mistakes that you Cmade
played over in your Fmind like the loop of a A#tape.
do my mother's Gregrets, for which she lost Crest,
do they keep you aFwake at night?
could you tell me that A#father?
do your memories Ghaunt you, sir?
or are you Ccontent with what you left behind?

Fi will be with my mom at the end of her life,
but sir i will not be for A#yours.
you've done nothing to earn it and frankly,
you don't deserve it, so you wCon't be receA#iving that rewarFd.
there are people who's names are passed down generations,
and sir, yours is not one of tA#hem.
consider it a consequence of a mistake that you made,
Cfor which there A#will never be aFmends.
how is that for a Gmemory to keep you aCwake?
there are parts that you gaFve to me,
but there are parts of us A#all, i think,
that are better off Gleft behind.
there are parts of us Call that are better left to Fdie.
