Davie West - Mum [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

FIRST VERSE:

Laying Up On My Couch, March Madness Started Today

Analyzing All These Games, Got Helene Guay To My Right

Dozing Off Into Space, But She Gotta Work In Half An Hour

Then She'll Come Home, Prepare Dinner, Do Some Laundry Where Does She Get All Of That Power?

She A Superhero In Disguise, Never Have I Lacked Anything Since Birth

Always Been There Right By My Side (Ohh Yeah)

Knows How To Run A Family, Never Been To University

But Intelligence Ain't Just About A's, B's, And C's

The Society We Living In Giving False Impressions (X2)

Like If You Didn't Pursue Your Studies And Get That Degree, Most People Tend To Look Down At You And Treat You Like A Freak

I Highly Respect All Humans Who Go All The Way And Graduate, But School Just Ain't For Everybody Yeah I Know You Can Relate

HOOK

SECOND VERSE:

She Never Ever Gave Up On Me, Even When I Left Rehab And Got Right Back To Smoking Trees

Can't Imagine How She Felt With All The Effort She'd Put In

Used To Drive Me To The Detox Center Every Single Morning

But I Messed Up, Yeah I Messed Up Really Bad

I Could See The Pain I Was Causing Her But Couldn't Live Without That Drag

Even When She Asked Me To Leave And Find A Flat She'd Always Cook

A Few Spaghettis And Shepherd's Pies Every Week Did What She Could

Just To Reassure Herself Knowing At Least I Was Eating Good

Fortunately I Fought Off The Drug, Now I'm Living How I Should

Got My Life Back On Track, So Thankful For All Her Guidance

Kept Believing In Me Even Though I Was So Damn Defiant

Guess It Paid Off Cause Now We're Back To Hugging Each Other And Laughing

Like Old Times When I Used To Rock My Toronto Raptors Cap And

Just To Finish Off I'd Like Everyone To Raise One Of Their Arms

One Time For Helene Guay, I Love You Mum...
