    Lyrics:
    Mama I know this wasn’t part of the plan
    I’m not the son you wanna show to your friends
    I know you think that I’m less of a man
    But you won’t say it…
    Say it.
    I know you think you do the best that you can
    I think there’s parts of you, you don’t understand
    You make me question everything that I am
    Till I can’t say it…
    Say it.
    You took my voice like I owed it to you
    Buried the boy that I still hold onto
    Take the rest of me, why don’t you ?
    You close the door I held open for you
    Made me ashamed of who I’ve turned into
    Take the rest of me, why don’t you?
    Yeah, why don’t you..
    Mama, this house you made was never a home
    Did you love us or love the control?
    Maybe it’s best we all learn to let go
    But we can’t say it..
    So I’ll say it.
    I painted smiles over all the abuse
    Cause I was young and that’s what kids do
    I was protecting my mom from the truth
    But now I’ll say it.
    Say it.
    You took my voice like I owed it to you
    Buried the boy that I still hold onto
    Take the rest of me, why don’t you ?
    You close the door I held open for you
    Made me ashamed of who I’ve turned into
    Take the rest of me, why don’t you?
    God knows we know ‘almost’
    God knows we know ‘almost’.
    I worked so hard to be your gentleman
    Left so many things unsaid
    Tried to be your best friend
    Until the walls were fucking caving in
    Closets, spilling skeletons
    When does it ever end?
    Mama, mama, mama,
    When does it end?
    Mama? Mama!
    You took my voice like I owed it to you
    Buried the boy that I still hold onto
    Take the rest of me, why don’t you ?
    You close the door I held open for you
    Made me ashamed of who I’ve turned into
    Take the rest of me, why don’t you?

    From sadness, to frustration, to lying to yourself about the truth, but denying it, becoming anger, a deep down fury never released, to simply a numbness all over the body. What a rollercoaster of emotions... And it hurts because I feel it in a personal level.

  • @creepyd6563

    This guys songs will always have a way to move me. His voice and lyrics compliment each other so well. Great song as always.

  • @tammybohn514

    Josh, My Son & I listened to this together and it hits hard! Emotional & Beautiful All at once! The thoughts that are running in my head of my mom that I can no longer Express and repair as she's no longer alive. I will have to heal with God & without her. Thank you for this song! Many Blessings to you! 😊🤗🖤🔥

    Me, my brother and little sister lived under a mother who emotionally abused us all. Pitted us against each other using the hope of avoiding her wrath. She lied to me , made me hate my father. I loss so many years with him because I was angry. Turns out she hurt him too. My brother and I are trying to heal. My little sister will never get the chance to. I miss her everyday.

  • @marlonese

    I grew up with an amazing mom. She raised 3 kids alone, shitty paying job, no alimony, kept the house clean, made food, always smiling and never complaining... It's easy to take that for granted when you've never known any different and this song grounds me. It's a humbling experience that reminds me not everyone has been this fortunate. I love my mom and I hope one day I'll be as good of a parent as she is.

    It’s been 9 months since I last seen and heard from my biological mother. The last 6 months before I moved, left everything I knew behind, and started new just to safe was an absolute nightmare before I packed my things and my roommate picked me up to drive 1000+ miles. My mother was mentally ill and had a severe drug problem. I was the main target of her abuse for 24 years. In those last six months she had me arrested, put in a institution, and stole so much from me. In those six months I was an alcoholic and suicidal. She lied, manipulated, leeched, stole, gaslit to get whatever she wanted. Though I’m still healing from all the abuse and there will be scars I’ll have to live with for the rest of my life, I’m doing better now. Drivers license, my own truck, and I’m now a electrician apprentice. This is something I needed, the words and feelings trapped inside me. Thank you for this. The tears I shed while listening makes me know it means something.

    LOVE THIS SONG. WHEN MY FATHER DIED,SHE TOLD ME IT WAS MY FAULT THAT I KELLED HIM. BUT SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT I WAS GOING THROUGH,I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT SHE WAS GOING THROUGH.I NEVER FELT THAT I EVER HAD MOTHER. I WAS 12 WHEN HE DIED AND STILL TO THIS DAY I DON'T UNDER STAND HOW MOTHER CAN PUT THINGS IN YOUR HEAD AND MAKE YOU BELIEVE. I'M 70 NOW AND THERE ARE TIMES I THINK ABOUT THIS AAND THE PAIN I WENT THROUGH AS A CHILD. SO MY HAT OFF TO YOU MY GOOD SIR. FOR THIS SONG.

  • @XxsuperconsolebrosxX

    As a person who grew up and still lives around abusive parents, this encapsulates my mother, biological dad and my dad in some ways, thank you Josh and God bless you, this makes me tear up and helps me get through my struggles. You deserve a LOT more attention dude

  • @graciegross4149

    It took my mom 52 years to realize that she doesn't have to stay around her abusive mother. And all it took was seeing me leave the moment that old hag tried to abuse me too. I know my worth, and I've been teaching my mom about hers

  • @tylerwalker6769

    Wish I could send this to her. Wouldn’t do any good. But this song has played non stop for me. Thanks man

  • @andreasschatz2328

    It's hard to live with a narcissistic Mother who always blames her fault on me. It hurts like hell.

  • @DJVayne409

    Thank you man I grew up with a mentally abusive stepmother and this shit hits home so fucking hard thank you Lo your voice is freaking amazing brother never stop

  • @mackenziemcfadden5212

    There aren't even enough words to describe how healing all your songs have been for me.

  • @bottomofastairwell

    you have no clue how healing songs like this are.

  • @simyoulater3983

    Lø Spirit I Know you probably dont read all your comments but man your music speaks to me, KEEP IT UP! you are an amazing artist

    This hits different for anyone who has suffered from the pain and abuse of realizing that they were married to someone who was just like their mother in spite of growing up in that kind of hell. Learned that the hardest way imaginable after surviving my wife's attempt to kill me in my sleep while we were staying at the same place we last visited on our honeymoon almost 9 years before. Samantha Lee Florin, stabbed me in the middle of my neck using one of my own knives and then escaped from the charges because of the bs story and use of her daddy's money and influence gained from his career in Lockheed and working with DC and god only knows.... ❤love the song and thank you for sharing your way of trying to heal afterwards with others looking for the very same thing.

  • @mercifulangel89

    Can completely relate to this song. So many of us end up broken adults because of abusive parents. We all heal with God and with time. Doesn't stop the pain or nightmares though. Great song man!

  • @slaternapier1640

    This was so much better than I imagined it would be after listening to the clips… you are an incredible artist. This song is so personal and still, us fans can still find a personal connection in our own lives. This hits so hard. I haven’t cried in a long time..I am now. I try so hard to have a relationship with my mom, but it also hurts.. thank you for this song, is in my Apple Music now

  • @rachelm9563

    Your music has kept me company through the darkness, when the shadows feel like they’re eating me alive. As I lie here alone, hiding with the blankets pulled over my head I use your music to drown out the screams of depression, anorexia, OCD.

    It's hard to understand how to feel when physically your parents are the best, but the emotional neglect has left you with a complete lack of self-worth 🖤
