Every Mother’s Son (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

I was born with my hand in a fist
And my eyes shut tight
Any wonder that i cannot resist
Punchin’ blindly in a fight
The first time i saw swans flyin’ to the sun
I wanted to be one

Like every mother’s son
When i saw my life had begun
I wanted to be someone
Like my brother and my one and only father
And like every mother’s son

I was raised within a cause
With a purpose to fulfill
I was taught to defend what was mine
And instructed not to kill
My small mortal eyes can see eternity
In the clouds that dissolve and then regroup endlessly

Like every mother’s son
When a man showed me how to use a gun
I wished i’d never need one
Like my brother and my one and only father
And like every mother’s son

Everything in domesticity
Assumes its role better than me
I’m a displaced person whose culture let me down
I raise my own daughters in a pornographic town

Like every mother’s son
I’ve lost some and some i’ve won
Now i’m waiting for a new dawn
Like my brother and my one and only father
And like every mother’s son

Every Mother’s Son (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

(allen collins — ronnie vanzant)

Well i’ve been ridin’ a winning horse for a long, long time
Sometimes i wonder is this the end of the line
No one should take advantage of who they are
No man has got it made
If he thinks he does, he’s wrong

(chorus)
Every mother’s son better hear what i say
Every mother’s son will rise and fall someday

I’ve seen it happen so many times, so many times before
Some man got so much money he doesn’t worry no more
Or he’s got such a pretty woman that’ll treat him fine
Well my friend has been a fool
It happens everytime

(chorus)

I’m not tryin’ to preach to no one, to no one at all
I’ve seen so many of my good friends just rise to fall
‘cause they got so much money or a woman so fine
Well my friends have all been fools, it happens every time

(chorus)

What i say
(chorus)

What i say
Oh, every mother’s son will rise and fall someday
