Lyrics
[Verse 1] To the mothers who aren't sleeping That are having trouble feeding Too afraid to say they're not okay, no, not at all To the mothers who feel empty That aren't sure they're even ready To be alone and responsible for somebody so small [Chorus] To the mothers who are lost, pulled underneath the waves Who need to cry for help, but are drowning in their shame To the mothers who are falling and don't even make a sound Who don't know that they're broken until they hit the ground This ones for you I've been there too I've been there too [Verse 2] To the mother that's at home Scrolling through her phone Watching everybody else make family look easy To the mom with her career Who can't take off a whole year So she has to pay somebody else to take care of her baby [Chorus] To the mothers who are lost, pulled underneath the waves Who need to cry for help, but are drowning in their shame To the mothers who are falling and don't even make a sound Who don't know they're broken until they hit the ground This ones for you I've been there too [Bridge] And one day, you'll discover Going from a woman to a mother It might break you But it might save you [Verse 3] To the mother in the mirror Who wishes she was thinner 'Cause now her body isn't somebody that she knows To the mothers just like me Who fell apart so suddenly I hope you realize you're not alone [Chorus] This one's for you This one's for you 'Cause I've been there too I've been there too [Outro] I love you, mom
