To ma, with love

This song has been in my playlist for a long time now. I never really had a chance to check out the lyrics until tonight. I loved the melody but now i love its meaning more. Ma, this is for you:

give it all back

You’re my hood, my motherhood
that I wear above all else
You’re my oldest guilt, my wall, my source
My greatest weakness and my force
You will never cease to be
my superiour directory
Someone upon whom it all depends
My mother and my most peculiar friend

chorus:
And I’ll give it all back to you
I’ll give it all back to you
All your unconditional love
I’ll give it all back to you

I love you in the deepest way
and I see your good and bad
The girlish smile you still posess
Your smartness and your passionate ways
At times like someone strange to me
and yet my oldest memory
Someone upon whom it all depends
My mother and my most peculiar friend
(repeat chorus)

The way you stay the way you are
gives me a home
a home for my soul
