Gracias Mamá

Thanks, mom
I thank the heavens
for letting me live
here in your bosom and
then be born and love you outside..
like I love you inside

You know, mom
Today I heard you again
and I hear you again
arguing with him
and I start to believe
that you agree..
that I won't be born

Because mom
I've been seen by a doctor
and no poking
that hurt me
I swear, mom
I won't be a bother..
and if you don't want it, so be it

Goodbye, mom, I'll pray for you
I forgive you even though I never saw you
I'm leaving, mom
my blood is flooding me
I won't be able to talk to you anymore

And this is a witness story
where I don't understand where to go
I can't figure out
how it ends
with the life of a child
without knowing the price
without knowing the crime
how one suffers
for not seeing that being
how one suffers
for not seeing it born
how one suffers
for not seeing that being

Goodbye, mom, I'll pray for you
I forgive you even though I never saw you
I'm leaving, mom
my blood is flooding me
I won't be able to talk to you anymore

Goodbye, mom, I'll pray for you
I forgive you even though I never saw you
I'm leaving, mom
my blood is flooding me
I won't be able to talk to you anymore
I won't be able to talk to you anymore
