Ni Maamaa

Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Started in the E.R. wishing for a restart
Hook you up to IV’s, then you start to breathe more
Breaks me to see your, Hurting more than before
Look at you beside me, then I start to breathe hard
See you laying in bed, Oxygen’s pacing your breath
We’re waiting to get, The test that they send
From doctor to doctor repeated again
Now I can’t comprehend, The things that they’ve said
See that you’re scared I’m holding your hand
Thinking what can they offer it’s not making sense
I love you, ma
And I hold you up
I love you, ma
And I hold you up
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ishpendaagozi, Ni Maamaa
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ishpendaagozi, Ni Maamaa
Admitted you now, They’re bringing you in
Admittedly now I feel it begin
Anxiety high, I’m not giving in
Tears in my eyes, Not blinking again
Now I see you in the I.C.U
Everything we do, the things we’ve been through
Brought us to stay hoping you can move
See you’re in pain but I cry for you
Don’t want to go home, Leaving you on your own
I just can’t sleep when I leave you alone
I try to be strong cause I know that I’m grown
But the truth is mom I don’t want you to go
I love you, ma
And I hold you up
I love you, ma
And I hold you up
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ishpendaagozi, Ni Maamaa
Ni Maamaa, Ni Maamaa
Ishpendaagozi, Ni Maamaa
