Motherless Child Lyrics

Motherless Child

With your love you gave me life
Not knowing right from wrong
You always
know that I'll be strong
You set me free and you paid the price
You
inspired me in my art
With the rebel in your heart
You gave nothing for
nothing
But the spirit of you word happiness could bring
I learned to
always do the best I can
You taught me to be true and I never
ran
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Left all alone in the
cold
Nowhere to go so I run like the wild
Stumbling, falling
Crying
calling you...
As they gave nothing in return
You became their slave
although you were brave
You still teach me what is left to learn
Though
they brought you to the grave
You will remain to ease my pain
